Thurman/Diaz (with undercard)

[ikorolev]

Belmontes did not deserve a title.

[Evander]

Round 12

Slow round no one did much of anything.

8-4 Figueroa

[crusader]

Belmontes wasn't engaging, but he outboxed Figueroa in a number of rounds.

[NazNaci1]

6-6 Draw.

Belmontes possibly should get the W.

[Evander]

Scorecards

Figueroa wins

[crusader]

115-113 JB
116-112 OF
118-110 OF

LOL at 10-2

[ikorolev]

118-110 was ridiculous.

[NazNaci1]

WTF?? 10-2?

7-5 Belmontes or 6-6 even, really.

[gilgamesh]

The 2 scorecards in favor of Figueroa were terrible. I could see 115-113 either way or 114-114, but 118-110? Get the f*ck outta here.

I had it 115-113 Belmontes

[crusader]

I also thought it was 114-114 or 115-113 Belmontes. How the fornicate can someone score that 10-2?

[Evander]

Look to me like Belmontes took much of the 2nd half of the fight off.

[crusader]

LMM-Molina next

Should be good while it lasts

[Evander]

Matthysse v Molina

Round 1

Matthysse looks nervous from the outset but scores with a right early.
Molina launches a ragged attack with a mite left to swing the round.
Close

1-0 Molina

[Evander]

Round 2

Matthysse is trying to pot shot Molina early.
Molina looks clumsy but adjusting to the style well.
Matthysse down.

2-0 Molina

[NazNaci1]

Wow!

Lucas down.

[lefty]

Matthysse dropped. Damn.

[lefty]

Molina looks like the bigger man.

[lefty]

How old is Pat Russell now?

[Evander]

Round 3

Molina is boxing behind a seemingly open guard and being forced back by Matthysse.
Matthysse cut, over to the doctor and on we go.

2-1 Molina

[Evander]

Round 4

Again Molina being backed up, Matthysse's jab is hot.
Heavy exchanges mid round.
Matthysse mixing up his arsenal.
Quality round.

2-2

[crusader]

38-37 Molina

[diddy]

LMM is the most overrated fighter of all time. But that was a BS knockdown and could cost him the fight. He's way behind right now. Went from a 10-9 LMM round to an 8-10 round.

[crusader]

That was only 10-9 imo.

48-46 Molina

[lefty]

Mattysse dropped again. Not looking good for him here.

[Evander]

Round 5

Matthysse down, looked suspect.
It was an over hand right toward the back of the head.
Matthysse won the bulk of the round.

3-2 Molina
