Kicks off in a few minutes here. Lets hope Lara comes with some urgency as the division is looking a bit up.
Damn, I'm in the middle of something, might miss the fight. Also working Sat, missing the Wlad fight.
Wow. Its a rain out FFS ??? Outdoor arena and they say if it can go they'll go straight to main event. Very disappointing
I vote they take the shoes off, step in some grit and go old school.
As long as Spicoli is reporting we'll get the right story. I can't watch tonite either but will be watching Sat.Quote:

Lara sharp right hook counter just made the knees of Zaveck do a dance. Lara looking very sharp and deliberate! Knocks Zaveck off balance end of 2nd round!
What the huh ??? Lara bombs him with one-two snapping Zavecks head back hard, on follow up Zaveck turns away apparently 'injuring shoulder'...need replay. Lara crushed him tko 3.
Zaveck in corner showing massive pain and grimace. Not sure what that was. They should keep going with card..screw the rain. Its just water and we're not made of sugar!
Said he had a muscle spasm and went to stretch his arm, looked literally like he was going to touch gloves as he turned away. Asked if he could have continued..Zaveck answered "I dunno" :-X
Emmanuel Rodriquez 13-0 taking on 17-1-1 Eliezer Aquino bantamweights.
Rain starts again, commission officials stir in background during 1st. They may pull the plug. interviewing Peter Quillin, dude is wearing a fire red hat that puts "Huggy Bear" to shame.
Rodriquez in full control, seats are completely empty.
Huge right decks Aquino, Manny rocks him again late 3rd. Rodriquez puts the package together very well...steps with the punches and sits down on the end of big combos. Doesn't move his head much though..gets clipped with a few throw away shots by Aquino.
Aquino looses his mouth piece for the 101th time! They might have to glue that thing in. Some refs would have docked a point for that..or stopped the fight
Very solid break down by Rodriquez who uses both hands and smart feet. Kid fights above his young years. One to watch. Closed the show in 7th round after ref takes a point from Aquino and drops Aquino.
Thanks for another solid job of reporting, fast, accurate, and understandable, you have a gift.Quote:

Nice work but we did not get the fight over here on our ESPN
That was the sort of statement Lara needed to make.
Hopefully they'll do a replay or it's put on youtube, maybe on espn2? Keep an eye out.Quote:

Watched the fight today. I really like Lara felt he got robbed in the canelo fight, why is Lara so underrated ? I feel as if he should only be in major fights now against big name opponents
I watched it, it was recorded and the story of Lara leaving Cuba is very moving and sincere.
Fighters like Solis should be ashamed.
