    Ishida is also a MW and that fight was at 158, and Wolf wasn't training Kirkland. This fight is at 154, and Molina seems better suited for 147. Kirkland doesn't have a strong chin by any means. However, great conditioning can help make up for a comprimised chin. Kirkland will be in excellent conditionf for this fight, or at least he should be.

    :deal This. Kirkland is anything but crude. He likes to slug, but he is a lot more versatile than he shows. He's got great hand speed ad can put punches together when he wants. I would really love for him to get a shot at Candelo. I think Kirkland can beat him.

    Kirkland is gonna give this dude a workout man. Too much power, too strong, too black, underrated slickness, just too much. Complete mismatch

    Killer Kirkland is not slick! He's a seek and destroy type fighter.. Kirkland fights like a man..

    Molina will upset him, UD12 (or UD10, I don't know how many rounds are scheduled)

    I've always been a fan of Kirkland but I have a new level of respect for him now.. He went to Mexico and out bad assed a card carrying bad ass (Angulo)! That was a great fight, hopefully Perro could come back and give us some entertaining scraps!

    Kirkland could box a little but I wouldn't say he's slick. :think

    Molina by decision. But then my predictions have really sucked lately.

    Just rewatched Molina vs Cintron... After that and reading some of the predictions on here due to the large gap in power I may retract my Molina UD prediction. I noticed Molina's head-movement is average-- he paws at a lot of punches and does grab, decent inside fighting. Molina likes to trade when pushed, which will not serve him well against Kirkland.

    However I'm still not solid on a Kirkland KO. Someone prove me wrong.
