Mauricio Lara

In the main event of the Matchroom Boxing evening in Manchester Lee Wood (27-3, 16 KOs) in a very one-sided and unspectacular fight won by unanimous decision Mauricio Laru (26-3-1, 19 KOs) and regained the WBA featherweight title. After twelve rounds, the judges gave the victory to the Englishman with a score of 116-111 and twice 118-109.

Mauricio Lara (26-2-1, 19 KOs) fell short of the featherweight limit at the official weigh-in before the rematch with Lee Wood (26-3, 16 KOs). Lara showed 58.9 kg on the scales, Wood - 57.1 kg. The Mexican thus lost the WBA world title, which only a Brit can win on Saturday night in Manchester. In February, Lara defeated Wood by TKO in the seventh round. The evening of boxing will be broadcast live on DAZN.

Former World Featherweight Champion Lee Wood thanked his coach Ben Davison, who threw in the towel in the seventh round and stopped his fight with Mauricio Laroy. Wood led the fight to the seventh round, but missed the left hook, from which he ended up in a heavy knockdown. The Briton was able to get up before the end of the referee's count, ten seconds remained before the end of the round and the referee seemed to be going to allow the boxers to continue, but at that moment Davison threw the towel into the ring, and Wood at first tried to protest against the coach's decision.

Josh Warrington and new WBA featherweight champion Mauricio Lara had a fight near the ring after Lara knocked out in the seventh round Lee Wood as part of a boxing evening in Nottingham. According to Warrington, the incident arose after Lara spat on him.

Mauricio Lara (26-2-1, 19 KOs) won by technical knockout in the seventh round over Lee Wood (26-3, 16 KOs) and took the WBA featherweight title from him in the main event of the evening in Nottingham, England. Local hero Wood suffered a cut over his left eye already in the first round after a headbutt, but round after round he won the fight.
