The former WBA featherweight champion got the quick finish, but Ornelas made him pay before going down himself.

The 28-year-old won the scheduled 10-round super featherweight main event on the Matchroom/ DAZN card after a first round in which both men hit the floor.

Ornelas struck first, dropping Lara early. That gave the favorite an immediate test of his recovery and briefly put the underdog in position to wreck Lara’s winning streak.
