LOS ANGELES, CA (October 18, 2008) Undefeated lightweight prospect Carlos Molina continued to impress the Southern California boxing fans as he brutally stopped Mexican veteran Eligio Valenzuela in the first round Friday night at the Quiet Cannon Country Club in Montebello.
The 22 year Molina dropped the aggressive and game Valenzuela twice in the opening stanza with the fight being stopped after the third knockdown at the 1:14 mark.
With the win, the Commerce, California resident improved to 5-0 with two knockouts.
“Valenzuela came to fight and they were trading bombs right from the opening bell, but Carlos has a terrific beard and punches much harder and that’s why he came out ahead in the one round slugfest” said manager Frank Espinoza.
“This was the best that Carlos has looked since turning pro. He’s worked hard in the gym on using leverage on his punches and it really showed tonight.”
About his upcoming plans, Espinoza said “We’d like to have him back in November. He’s ready to step up to six rounders and we want to keep him busy.”
