UNDERCARD
THERE are just 98 days and 83 miles between Mauricio Lara’s crushing knockout of Leigh Wood and the Nottingham man’s risky yet admirable crack at redemption this weekend.
It was February 18 when the Mexican ‘Bronco’ left-hooked a hole in Wood’s until-then watertight gameplan of boxing, moving and winning on the cards. The Nottingham man swallowed the shot at the same time he landed one of his own but instantly dropped to the canvas.
He beat the count, but his coach Ben Davison threw in the towel to end the contest and hand ‘Leigh-thal’ the third defeat of his career.
