We had a lot of other options, but Molina was the only one who understood the opportunities that opened up in front of him. Some (of the other applicants for the fight) is too overestimated themselves, some have made the negotiations so heavy that they could not agree on the fight. They had a choice - money or opportunity. Molina understood the situation, he realized that he will have the opportunity to become world champion in the heavyweight "- Deontay Wilder.
Kownacki's trainer and Kownacki about his victory: Jeff Wojciechowski: Previously znokautowałeś rival in the first round, today przeboksowałeś eight hard rounds. Let's start with the coach, what were the pros and cons of today's fight? Keit Trimble (Kownackie coach): I have not seen too many minuses, Adam needs to put more strength in shock, keep a proper distance to be able to box. If you start more "sit on their blows," it will be knocked into each fight. Perhaps the opponent was too strong for Kownackie? Since the last fight there was little time for training. Keith Trimble: We train since November, we had maybe about 10 days off. In recent rounds you looked a little tired. Adam Kownacki: Yes, but in the last round I boxed well. In the early rounds I may have lost too much strength, but it all comes with experience. I had only 30 amateur fights, he was at the Olympics. I'm still learning, I had a 3-year break due to injury. Every fight is a science. Fans also come to you today in the stands appeared in 400 Poles who loudly shouted. Al Haymon people happy. What's next? Adam Kownacki: Now some will rest. I took a lot of punches I should not have. I can not be too smug, I have come to blows calmly, as in the last round. Keith Trimble: Adam needs to better select the blows were moments in which simply rerouted impact player if he was a lightweight. He led out a lot of punches, rather than go back and hit again, but concretely.
You guys remember the Arreola-Molina fight? McCall was looking like he was ready and able to get in there for Molina and KO Arreola. Honestly, McCall would be a much more credible opponent for Wilder.
Good fight if it happens. Would probably be Prices best win other than Pala, maybe his highest ranked win.
