    Gr8 3rd round by Egg. Needs to keeo working the jab from range and following up with right hands. The work rate and intensity will get to Molina imo.

    Rd4: Eggington looking nicely settled now, smart use of distance firing out jabs and Molina struggling to close the distance, or Eggington backs off half a step causing Molinas jabs to fall short.

    Molina comes forward last minute of the round but controlling the distance well overall, picking off Molina.

    Eggington backed up on the ropes last 15 seconds but fights off.

    Eggington has success when he let's his hands go and is clearly the bigger puncher.

    Rd4: Eggington - clear.

    Egg boxed well in 4th. Needs to dig more into the body from range.

    Rd5: Eggington doubling and trippling the jab up at times, Molina looking for the counter left but missing wildly at times.

    Eggington cocking the right and throwing the left hook but isn't throwing the right often except in close. Looks to be waiting to time Molina or has maybe injured it.

    Molina using his feet more this round but he is on the backfoot and is having minimal success. He looks comfortable at first but he us using a lot of energy and Eggington is far too strong.

    Eggington puts the pressure on at the end and Molina can't handle the pace when Eggington turns it up.

    Rd5: Eggington - clear.

    Rd6: Close infighting for the first 30 seconds, both looking for room to land shots on the inside.

    Good 30 seconds after, nice counter left hook from Molina up top.

    Eggington reverting to single shots for the first 90 seconds, picks up the pace last 30 of the second minute as they trade.

    Molina using a lot of head movement now but has slower the pace down whilst using his feet.

    Molina controlling the ring for the last 90 seconds, taking the centre of the ring. Molina making Eggington miss when close dipping low.

    Rd6: Molina - Good round, Eggington landed a few glancing jabs but Molina controlled the round, countered well making Eggington miss.

    Rd7: first 30 seconds Eggington landing with jabs and takes centre.

    Molina looking to move, counter. Seems to have noted Eggington has to set his feet to land.

    Pace is suiting Molina and he is making Eggington fight his fight currently. He is nicking the exchanges through smart work.

    Eggington lands a few crisp shots but Molina is throwing the counter left to body and top.

    Eggington finishes strongly.

    Close Round, Eggington probably nicked it at the end, was going down as a draw otherwise.

    Rd7: Eggington (CLOSE).

    I think round 7 was a 10/10 round.

    Rd8: Molina is fighting smart, he is pressuring Eggington using footwork and isnt staying in front of Eggington.

    He's working on the front foot and then looking to move back and counter.

    Eggington lands 2 crisp jabs followed by a jab and Solid straight down the pipe.

    Eggington takes centre ring for first 30 seconds of the 2nd minute.

    Molinas feet have just slowed but he has Eggington backed into the corner. Some decent work from Molina last 30 seconds of the 2nd minute.

    Eggington piling on the pressure last minute of the round, has Molina against the ropes near the corner, GREAT body shot from Eggington, sapped the Energy out of Molina.

    Rd8: Eggington.

    Eggs is looking decent so far, just seems to be beating him on the jab. Molina is a solid chin. Get the feeling one punch could change things. Well impressed with eggington so far tho
