Carlos Molina of Chicago took a junior middleweight world title from Ishe Smith via split-decision underneath the Floyd Mayweather-Saul “Canelo” Alvarez junior middleweight title fight (on Showtime pay-per-view).

It was about as boring a 12-round fight as one can imagine. Molina won by scores of 117-111 and 116-112 with the third score going to Smith by a 116-112 count.
