Comments Thread For: Molina: Broner Broke His Word, Ran The Entire Fight

Garbage excuse. Molina was dreadful last night. That fight being a stinker is on him.

I'm pretty sure Matthysse hits harder than Broner yet against Matthysse Molina was swinging away & exchanging & last night against Broner he was very hesitant to throw punches, it was like he was asking Broner permission to throw punches. I thought Molina could have done a lot more & better.. ..

He was swinging away because lucas is a face first brawler just like him..AB is a counter puncher, that made him think about his attack .

Do you know what counter-punching means? I'll help you out. It does not mean freezing up and not throwing when the opponent throws at you.

Broner pressed the action a lot more than Molina did, Molina was afraid to commit despite losing round after round.

[ManAnimalX]

put a cork in it Molina.

Molina broke his own word, he didn't press like he was supposed to and said he would do, why was he waiting so long to engage Broner?

Broner the Boxer puncher ended up having to try and press the brawler at times, the brawler who is suppose to attack and create a fight, but...........Molina waited, and waited....wtf?

I'm sitting here like what the heck is Molina doing??, he landed a few decent shots but he didn't give himself the best chance to win by being so passive, especially after all the Interviews blah blah about what he was going to do...

Molina you "did not" provide ENOUGH action. Broner? smh lol, what can I say about this dude, I mean yes he won the fight but he looked ordinary, not like someone who can carry the sport and be the face of boxing, are you kidding me? lol please..

All in all it was a pretty good scrap, but disappointed in both for different reasons. :ANYWORD:

Actually...HE DID NOT RUN AT ALL!

Broner was in the pocket and in the middle of the ring most of that fight. What Molina wanted was for him to stay still but like he said fighting Broner was like Shadow Boxing. He landed the Right Head early and caught Broner flush with it. After that Broner started coming underneath that right hand which was smart on his part.

It is not your opponent job to "LET YOU HIT HIM" it is your job to figure out a way to hit him clean. Today's Boxers and Boxing Fans seem to be CONFUSED as to how this sport WORKS!

It literally never crossed my mind that this fight would be boring. Not even for a second did I think Molina would throw five punches per round.

Molina was paid/told to lose this fight. Every time he had any success, he immediately shut down his own offense. He threw very few punches with conviction. He was paid/told NOT to pull off the "upset".

That fight was awful. Broner didn't even look good because he was fighting someone who was trying not to win. That's what a fixed fight looks like.

A good article from Deadspin that came out a while ago:

Molina fought the exact way that you're NOT supposed to fight broner...staying on the outside, waiting, not getting off first. Absolutely horrible performance by molina im disappointed!
