Hope you're not talking about shots to the back of the head cause your man Wilder is the king of those.

He also repeatedly pushes Molina's head down with his left glove to set him up for the rabbit punches. He shoves him to the canvas. And at the very end of round 1 he has Molina hurt, basically defenseless, and he actually punches straight downwards into the back of his skull.
Wilder sometimes throws wide, looping punches that land on the temple or behind the ear, but that's a consequence of his long arms and awkward style. He doesn't deliberately aim for the back of the skull and neck like Hrgovic does.
But the referee is also at fault in the Molina fight. He should've given a warning or taken a point away.

I mean I don't even really like Hrgovic but Molina didn't seem like he wanted to be there from the get go and was kind of being a big baby but he's entitled to try and get a fair shake too.

Hrgovic is as rigid as a concrete slab. You'll realize that when you grow up and have watched a fifth of the boxing I've forgotten about.
Who mentioned North Americans? I wrote "someone serious enough". It may even be another European stiff. Like your hero Wlad Klitschko, knocked out senseless by Corrie Sanders and Lamon Brewster when they were depicting him as a great fighter. Well before he built his "reign of boredom" on the likes of Alex Leapai and other assorted tomato cans.
FYI, one of my favorite HWs ever was Andrew Golota. Go figure.
Want another example of East European over-hype? Kubrat Pulev. Knocked out hard by Wlad Klitschko, that's all one needs to know.
Old timers?
Mate Parlov. Ever heard the name? Look for "Marvin Johnson" to understand.
Slobodan Kacar; ask Bobby Czyz.
Now excuse me, I have other things to do.

A joke, actually,lol!

Just one thing, I actually do not rate Mate Parlov highly, in fact I had put him in the list of overrated East Europeans. He did manage to win a world title, but as soon as he met someone at real top level he failed. Then there was the Marvin Camel robbery...
Being at the Bowe-Golota riot must have been quite an experience! Too bad Golota had not the right frame of mind; technically speaking, he was the best of them all at that time. He was kicking Bowe's ass big time before losing his head.
