In the opening bout of the Spence vs Porter PPV we saw Josesito “The Riverside Rocky“ Lopez (37-8, 20 KOs) knock out John Molina Jr. (30-9, 24 KOs) in the eighth round of their welterweight fight. “We both carry power in our hands so it wasn't a surprise someone went down,“ said Lopez. “It easily could have happened to me with the power he has. I was able to catch him early, find openings and get the finish.“ Lopez landed a critical blow on his first punch of the night, snapping off an overhand right that connected flush with Molina and put him on the canvas early in the first round. Lopez was patient following up and eventually landed a vicious body shot that put Molina down for the second time in the round.
