Fight HighlightsProspect Emmanuel Rodriguez remained undefeated with a TKO win over Elicer Aquino.
At some point, a move to 160 pounds might be in the cards for Erislandy Lara. Could even be as soon as next year. And if the 154-pound champ does step up in weight, there’s a fighter in that division that has a reputation—as Lara does—for having slightly reluctant opposition.
Erislandy Lara is a Cuban defector who epitomizes his nickname—“The American Dream”—as much as anyone in boxing. So it’s only fitting that Lara’s next title defense would be staged the day before Thanksgiving—and in his adopted hometown.
