great to see big bang doing so well late in his career. rarely does a fighter hit his career peak at his age, that saudi money must be nice too

Erislandy Lara is more exciting now. I always thought Ovil McKenzie was up there in age but he wasn't

Lara is fighting mostly tomato cans at middleweight though
Omar Narvaez was almost 40 when he was KO'd and lost his jr. bantam belt to Monster. He was in his prime as a flyweight, but even then he was in his 30s
