    Okay, this guy sucks... But he literally ran towards Terence Crawford WITH HIS HANDS DOWN the whole night. No head movement, no footwork, not even a peekaboo defense? Smells of a fix or he is really that terrible.

    He's just not a very good fighter to begin with. But that was the worst performance I've seen him put forth. Awful.

    I really don't get it... If you're going to run in, why wouldn't you put earmuffs on? You can still throw winging hooks and overhands from a defensive position.

    I don't know why people are getting upset about this. We knew exactly how this would play out. The only people who are surprised by how awful Molina did are people who didn't watch Molina vs Broner.

    This. Molina did show some improvements vs Provodnikov, however, those were not tactics that were going to work against someone like Crawford.

    Levels to the fight game. Time for bud to either fight the African brotha for the IBF or move up.

    Belay my last. Haymon needs to let Broner fight Crawford because his star is fading and it would be a big at 140.
    After Maidana,which was a great fight that Adrien showed heart in, he turned into a hype.

    Molina isn't a good fighter, lol. Seriously, look at his last 5 fights.

    Matthysee knocked him out! Molina was just there for the payday, that's all. It's time Crawford fight someone good..................

    I think he tried to get Crawford into a stupid action type of fight but Crawford didn't fall for it and still got the KO anyways.

    He is a really limited fighter, which I think goes to show how shot Provodnikov is now. He does still carry legit power but if you can't land it then it's kinda pointless. At least he tried I suppose.
