    Tuning in. Why did Molina never pursue a rematch with Kirkland btw?

    Round 8

    Lots of grabbing behind the neck and pushing/pulling by both men on the inside. Very ugly. The referee seems confused about who to give warnings to while calling for breaks. He settles on Spinks, and yells "NO holding!!" Molina keeps working the body at close range until Spinks can tangle arms with him. Light right jabs by Spinks from a foot out. Big combo to the body by Molina, ducking in low under Spinks' grabbing arms.

    10-9 Molina

    78-74 Molina

    Good call LOL. The ESPN execs must have been like, "What is the least aesthetically pleasing fight can we place on the air? How does two clinch masters, one who is over-the-hill sound? Sounds ****ing great!"

    Round 8

    Molina continuing the mauling and Cory can't get space and when he does he doesn't have the pop to keep Carlos from getting inside cleanly and banging the body and roughing him up.

    10 - 9 Molina
    77 - 75 Molina

    I think Jermain edged it, but Cory was damn competitive. :good

    ...and Cory wasn't actually prime then; he was a bit past!

    (...and here he is years later, shot to absolute pieces but not giving up the ghost :verysad...)
