Figueroa Jr vs Molina Jr HIGHLIGHTS: February 16, 2019 - PBC on FOX

Unbeaten former World Champion Omar Figueroa Jr. met John Molina Jr. for ten rounds as the co-main event for PBC on Fox live from the Microsoft Theatre in Los Angeles, CA. Molina opened up the first round trying to find his distance, exuding patience and accurate as he waiting to launch his shots. Figueroa on the other hand consistently used his straight left hand to the body and attacking early while slipping his right hand. Both fighters used round two and three to trade combinations and let their hands go. Molina applied pressure to back Figueroa up but he was determined to fight through it. "I thought it was a good fight,” said Figueroa. “We came out and did what we wanted to do. Unfortunately, I hurt my hand so I started to slow down a little bit after the third round. I know I could have hurt him if I really pressed the action, but I didn't want to make the hand any worse.”   The action began early, with Figueroa showing his typical aggressive style, snapping sharp overhand rights and pushing Molina to the ropes. Molina was able to keep Figueroa at bay at times by using his jab to set up big power punches.   In round three Figueroa began to switch between southpaw and orthodox, landing several clean left hooks from the southpaw stance. But at the end of the round Molina landed perhaps the most significant punch of the fight, stopping Figueroa in his tracks with a clean overhand right.   The action continued into the second half of the fight, with Molina throwing more punches and Figueroa landing the higher percentage. After 10 rounds of action, the judges all gave the fight to Figueroa, with scores of 99-91, 98-92 and 97-93.   "I thought I won comfortably and aside from some middle rounds I felt like I was in control,” said Figueroa. “He caught me with a wake up punch in the third round. I wanted to test his power because I had heard so much about it. He's definitely strong and durable and when I hit him with hard shots, he withstood them."   Molina threw 751 punches to 668 from Figueroa according to CompuBox, but it was Figueroa who ended up out landing Molina by a 241 to 159 punch margin. Figueroa also out landed Molina 10-4 and 11-1 in the final two rounds. Omar Figueroa Jr took home the win via UD and improves his unblemished record to 28-0-1, 19KO’s. visit PremierBoxingChampions.com for info.
