    I think Lora would box the shit outta Galaxy. In addition to the style being bad for Galaxy, Lora was a much bigger guy.

    Lora was really more of a super bantam imo, melted down to 118.

    I disagree about the size issue. Galaxy, like most Thai's, went to extreme lengths to get his weight down. He was every bit as big as Lora IMO.

    I think there's enough to go on to give Galaxy a good chance here, as Lora has quite a few bad habits and traits which play into Galaxy's hands. He faded late in fights, and often clowned around with his hands down, both of which do not bode well for him in a long fight against a puncher like Galaxy. Especially one who goes to the body. Lora also had a tendancy to get too involved, standing in the pocket and while he stayed a defensive marvel, he did get caught quite a bit. Especially against Vazquez. Throw in being stopped by Canizales and I think Galaxy is a real live dog. It could be Lora boxes his socks off early on bit fades due to scuffing bodywork, and Galaxy either makes it close late, or knocks him out.

    It's a good fight IMO.
