Mickey Bey was miles ahead on all three scorecards and had just three minutes to go in his Showtime-televised headliner versus John Molina, Jr. last July. Then disaster struck.
Molina Jr. rallied back hard, catching Bey coming in to start a fight-ending flurry that all but left the unbeaten lightweight out on his feet. Referee Vic Drakulich gave the rising prospect his fair chance to recover and fight back, but was left with no choice but to stop the fight with just under one minute left.
To date, it’s the only fight that Bey failed to win, and in a fight he was handily winning until he wasn’t. Two straight wins have followed heading into his first major title shot, when he faces lightweight titlist Miguel Vazquez. The bout takes place on September 13 in supporting capacity to the pay-per-view rematch between Floyd Mayweather and Marcos Maidana at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
