Filip Hrgovic stopped Eric Molina, who wobbled Deontay Wilder

While Deontay Wilder knocked out Dominic Breazeale in round one of their WBC heavyweight world title fight, there have been a plethora of boxers who’ve managed to drag the Alabama brawler out of the opening segment.

In a tough night at the office, Wilder was badly rocked by Eric Molina before bouncing back to finish the bout in the ninth.

However, while Wilder struggled with ‘Drummer Boy’, Filip Hrgovic had no such problem.

On December 7, 2019, ‘El Animal’ dominated his rival, hitting him with spiteful shots from the first bell.

In the second, Hrgovic scored the first knockdown of the bout with a body shot.

Molina managed to beat the count, but when a crushing right hand landed in the third, he failed to make it back to his feet before ten.
