    That last round reminded me, in a lesser extent, of Corrales Castillo.

    What heart by Molina. I really thought he looked in trouble early in the 10th.

      Well at first he said "I don't want you to do anything reckless" but then at the end he said "You could probably get him up out of here". So basically his instructions were confusing, a good technical trainer but an awful corner man.

        Well when he was first clipped he was alert enough to hold so......Just the drawbacks of having only 18 fights, no experience. Like I said though Sr. didn't do him any good telling him he might be able to KO Molina when the job was done..

          Mayweathers stable of fighters is not impressive at all. The only guy on there that has some hope is Gavril. The rest are average.

            mayweather fighters need to stop making vids with elie sechback and start working on their fundamentals.

            Or he needs to round up better talent.

              Yea Snr showed poor judgement, but Molina did look like he was ready to go, It's just that I have watched Bey fight quite a few times now and I noticed a while ago that he didn't have the best chin(he was knocked down a couple fights ago). Snr should know his fighter's chin Molina is always dangerous also before the fight Snr said he had not watched any tape and didn't know much about Molina, Bey knew more about him then Snr did

                Bey lost for listening to Floyd sr. Before the 10th round he said "I want you to go out there and fight super hard. You might get him out of there". What happened? Bey came out strong, had Molina wavering and ready to go, but then got gassed and Molina opened up and played evil dentist on him!LOL

                Gotta give Molina credit though. Once he realized Bey was hurt he turned into a wild man. That was the first time all night where he seemed to be awake.

                  I thought Sr's advice was accurate. He told Bey to maybe work the body some more which was precisely what had sapped Molina in the previous round.
                  And it's true that he could have finished him if he stepped on the gas a little more. It just wouldn't be smart to try to get the finish at that point with the fight in hand.

                  Still, no one told Bey to showboat.

                    Any time anyone from the money team loses I'm happy. So I've been happy a lot lol. The only one I'll root for is Luis Cuba Arias...

                      Molina was hurt but he's experienced and he's got power, you can't be reckless and try to finish a guy like that.

                      I thought Bey showed a good chin actually, he took a lot hard shots all night and was only clearly hurt in the last round. His biggest problem is his defense and ring IQ.
