    Did anyone see that fight last night, my god what a war, if you haven't seen it watch it, nailed on FOTY, one of the best fights i've ever seen! No exaggeration it was even better than Bradley vs Provo or Rios Alvarado amazing fight toe to toe war.

    Rematch please. That was badly needed after that excuse for a heavyweight fight last night. Great stuff.

    Molina's corner man was a disgrace. He should have pulled him after rd 9. Molina was let out to take more heavy shots. Referee also to blame.

    I was thinking the same , Joe Goosen was also telling him to get out there and 'punch with him' . In other words he was told to take one to give one.
    Crazy disregard for Molina's health.
    However, you felt like Molina could turn the fight around with a single punch.

    It was nail biting to the finish and I had a silly wager on Matheysse to win by Ko - which made it even more exciting.
    Heart was pounding watching this last night, haven't felt that feeling since Mosley's fights of old

    Very hard to dislike Lucas as a fighter. Such honesty about him in the ring. Full on and 100 percent committed. Super chin on him too!

    A great fight but a sloppy performance from Matthysse I thought. He was very careless when cutting the distance early on and he definitely didn't show Molina enough respect. Still has that thunderous power but he still needs to get someone like Roach in his corner too. Not enought variety or creativity in his offence.

    Just saw it on Boxing tonight. Unbelieveable resilience from Molina as he took a battering
