Good night Wood

I'm surprised this is actually happening but Wood is a champion so he should be ready to take on any challenger - this is how the sport is supposed to work.

Nottingham Arena is a great venue. Always creates a good atmosphere.

How much you guys wanna bet that after Lara wins the belt, Warrington will suddenly be demanding a rematch with Lara.

It will probably be Josh's last chance at a World Belt now that his career in in decline!

Leigh was quite impressive against Conlan, but he was dropped early and struggled to recompose himself and Lara brings more consistent firepower than Conlan which could be the difference.

This is good scrap. Wood better box and be careful if he doesn't want the Warrington treatment. Lara is is there to be hit, but dude got hammers in both hands. After seeing Wood go down against Conlan the way he did, if he gets nailed with big shot from Lara, he might not get up.

Interesting fight, Lara should blast wood in 8 or less, Expecting an absolute slugfest from these two

Absolutely. Wood v Conlon was the best atmosphere I had ever seen. The Irish had watched their rugby team beat England (a big thing) in the afternoon in the pubs, so they were merry. And Notts Forest had a good win, so the Notts fans were merry. That and the fan split with the Irish on one side of the arena and the Notts fans on the other. Incredible!
