Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. improved to 24-0-1 (18) and avenged the only blemish on his record with six-round majority decision over Carlos Molina, who held the son of the all-time great Mexican champ to a draw last December. Chavez, who won by scores of 57-57 and 58-56 (twice), was troubled by Molina's hand speed and combination punching in the first round of the bout, but beginning with the second round "Junior" stayed on top of his game foe and began turning the bout into match of infighting.

By the third round, Chavez was landing accurate head shots in between Molina's often wide hooks and crosses. In rounds four and five, Chavez punished Molina with an educated and accurate left hand, turning the jab into a left uppercut and doubling up with the hook. The two traded bombs in the sixth round, and Molina got in a hard hook-cross combination, ensuring a close fight on the scorecards.

However, many in the crowd thought the nod should have gone the other way, booed the decision and cheered for Molina, who dropped to 8-2-1 (4).
