Canelo Alvarez vs Edgar Berlanga LIVE: Start time, undercard, fight updates and results tonight

The loudest boos yet after another round of inactivity, until…

Garcia eats a light cross, and drops to a knee… and that’s it!

What an underwhelming end to a terribly disappointing fight!

Into the second half of the fight. Lara slings a southpaw cross onto the chest of Garcia.

Now a cross to the waistband. Somewhere along the way, Garcia sustained some damage around his left eye.

Better work from Garcia. He fires off a cross to the head then an uppercut to the body.

Up until that point, it had been a very slow round.

Overhand left connects for Lara. Now Garcia with a decent cross.

Garcia tries to press forward, but he fails to trap Lara or land on the champion.

This has been very dull, it must be said.

A light one-two from Lara, then another. His footwork has been quite slick, to be fair. He also has southpaw angles going for him.

Garcia with a long right hook to the body late in the round.

Garcia with a couple of jabs, then he bites quite hard on a feint from Lara.

Lara scrapes Garcia’s nose with a jab of his own. The fight is still being contested at a slow pace.

More boos in the T-Mobile Arena.

Lara with a grazing southpaw cross. He’s not looking especially fast or powerful, yet Garcia seems so hesitant to engage with the champion.

Lara stands southpaw; Garcia is orthodox.

Lara holds the centre of the ring in the first round, looking to maintain range as Garcia throws the occasional cross.

Now Garcia takes the centre of the ring.

The first round was largely a feeling-out frame. More of the same so far, and there are some boos from the Vegas crowd.

Still plenty of time for this fight to pick up, but Plant vs McCumby would’ve been a great appetiser for the main event.

Lara backs up Garcia and sticks behind the jab.

One more fight before the main event: Erislandy Lara defends the WBA middleweight title against Danny Garcia.

Lara is 41, while Garcia is 36. Neither man is in his prime anymore, to be honest, but that doesn’t mean we won’t get an entertaining bout here.

Plant hurts McCumby to the body and pours on shots, switching to the head with a clean uppercut!

McCumby fires back briefly, but he’s in trouble in the corner. Plant sneaks a few hooks around McCumby’s guard now.

McCumby teeters somewhat away from the corner, only to find himself trapped in another.

Smart work from Plant, who attacks the body with a left hook then lands a right uppercut to the head.

OH! And Plant UNLEASHES a series of hooks in the final few seconds of the round, and McCumby starts to fall into the ropes – and the ref steps in! It’s all over!

Nice little flurry from McCumby at close range, targeting Plant’s head exclusively. Plant creates space and moves forward.

Lovely counter one-two from Plant. McCumby grimaces now as Plant lets go with a prolonged combination.

McCumby rallies a little, though, late in the round.

Both men bounce around, staying light on their feet. Plant drills two uppercuts onto the chin of McCumby – one with each hand.

He squeezes in another uppercut, after both fighters grapple and try to create space.

Strong counter left hook by McCumby. He taunts Plant, trying to get himself fired up.

A much better stint for Plant now. He’s the one taunting at the moment. Again he has McCumby stuck on the ropes and is unloading eclectic offence.

Plant with a beautiful right hook on the counter, then he looks to the crowd – a real moment of showmanship! He’s dancing in front of McCumby now. Where has McCumby’s swagger gone?

Big left hook from Plant! And another huge land on the bell!

Again Plant goes flying into the ropes. He’s been put off balance about four times – and down twice – by McCumby’s power, even though the punches in question have largely hit his arms and body. An odd fight.

But Plant again does well to respond positively; he backs up McCumby to the ropes and tees off in a prolonged spell, with fine variety and accuracy.
