I think that's fine. Molina didn't really get hurt save one moment in the third.

Not even mad, what a third round. I knew as soon as I heard 29-27 I had no chance.

This is some really excellent violence today. Molina almost got KO’d with 2 seconds left, that was so wild

Molina might be the only fighter in history to get a 10-8 and get rocked in the same round.

Ooof, guess people disagree with me. Out of curiosity how do you not score that last round a 10-8 for Molina? Aori's face went from fine to cottage cheese in 5 minutes.

Molina is a stud, hope he gets more popularity after this. Gotta appreciate that Diaz Brothers boxing style.
