    I thought Molina beat Lara.. It was a close fight, and won't dispute what your saying about Lara landing clean, but I though Molina dictated the fight and won an ugly decision in a pretty uneventful fight.

      well molina is terrible. he can't land a punch unless he has you hooked. he only has one move really. his left hand hooks you around the waist then he throws either a right hand or a left hook off of the clinch. if his opponent tries to clinch him back that's when he lets his hands go. in the middle of the ring he's hopeless. he has to stick on his opponents like glue since he's so slow. only time he can land a clean punch in the middle is if he feints a clinch and draws his opponent out of position. other than that he's pretty awesome...

        Molina is the hardest guy to deal with because of his awkward style, and his experience..
        That is Andrade's fight to lose. You see Molina being a tough test for him, while I see it the other way around. As long as he takes Molina serious and fights hard every round, I don't see Molina winning. I can't imagine Andrade getting bullied and smothered to death.

          Like Daggum said I don't even know if Molina landed one clean punch because of Lara's tight guard. Lara definitely landed the cleaner, harder shots. Molina badly faded in the second half of the fight and it cost him the fight. If Molina had kept his rhythm he might have won it, but Lara finished stronger. Lara was catching him with big bodyshots in the early rounds and they may have taken their toll. I have watched the fight twice I had it 95-95 or 96-94 Lara. Having Molina winning isn't scandalous but I just can't see it. I wouldn't mind seeing a rematch just to set the record straight. Both boxers are advised by Al Haymon so it would be an easy fight to make.

            He is an ugly fighter, no doubt. I just think he is highly effective at it

            I agree that Andrade has a good shot at beating Molina, I just think Molina is one of the toughest if not thee toughest guy to defeat let alone look good against.. Molina is a real spoiler with his awkward ugly style and he could make life frustrating for the inexperienced Andrade..

              Always thought Molina won, but it was a close fight, I only watched it once, but regardless, Molina is gonna be a very tough fight for Andrade at this point in Andrade's career

                Andrade impressed me in his last three fights. He completely dominated Hernandez, Vanes and Rose. I think he's ready for anyone at 154. Not saying he would win, but he would be competitive.

                Before stepping up against Freddy Hernandez he was being criticized for fighting weak opposition like a certain... Gary Russell Jr.

                I would like to see him against Willie Nelson next in a battle of huge Junior Middleweights. It should be a good fight.

                  Totally agree, Andrade seems ready for the next level..

                  He should fight Nelson, rosado, charo, trout, angulo
