Was a hand picked victim, but almost pulled off a Rocky on Wilder, moved well, threw his punches and showed tremendous heart to go 9 rounds. Tougher guy than I thought.
He didn't pull off anything. Wilder let the fight go 9 rounds. Molina was and still is a joke on this level.
Just rewatching the fight and Molina was game until.the end, had Wilder rocked in the 8th with a combination. You are deluded if you think Wilder took those shots on purpose.
People tend to forgot, Arreola for all of his shortcomings, is a huge puncher, he has 31 KO's for a reason, so people make far too much over that, he'd hurt Arreola and went all out trying to finish him and got caught and then Arreola finished him, because Arreola isn't a more precise puncher than Wilder is.
