They even have wagers for SDs and such for gambling. How do you not understand this?

Yes, that is retarded; however, predicting a SD is not.

I'm still not entirely convinced the bout is real for the simple fact that see Vanes actually face a relevant opponent instead of simply talking about facing a relevant opponent blows my mind.

I've heard of, and have been waiting to see, this Martirosyan fellow, so I can't truthfully make a prediction, but talk about a bad choice for a coming out party. Lara is a destroyer. Technically excellent, great amateur, professionally transitioned... Might as well just invite an opponent to bring a gun to the ring, that's a stiff test. I hope Lara finally catches the eye of the public, puts on a great showing, etc. Will have to catch a later showing, that Mares/Moreno fight is far more intriguing to me.

I'm going with my boy Lara via destruction.

In all honesty though Vanes is a good fighter. Unfortunately this is survival of the fittest, one of these two avoided fighters has to fall.

I'll take Lara. I think he has won every fight he has had so far in his career. I don't see it as easy work, though.
