Excellent recap of the fight!

I was very impressed to see how Molina performed, and equally disappointed to see Perez's performance.

I also don't buy the whole "I was training to fight a lefty, so I was not as prepared" bit. Molina had just as much preparation as Perez, and don't EVEN try to tell me that Perez FORGOT how to fight against a conventional stance... I'M NOT BUYING IT!

At the end of the day, Molina was just the hungrier fighter!
