Steve Molitor will either sink or swim after this defeat. He is a fighter who fights without confidence, he doesn't let his hands go even when there's no danger and he doesn't go in for the kill...the posters who saw this in him before the fight were right! Either he changes and starts to fight like he believes in himself, or he crumbles emotionally the first time someone will try to exploit this weakness in him. One thing is clear, Molitor is not staying the same - the confort zone is gone - he either swims or sinks. He'll either become a better fighter or he'll retire within 2-3 fights.
If he does have a lack of confidence, then it might be a while before we see him back. Maybe he just met his kryptonite last night:think I'd be delighted to see him back in action early next year. A fight with Dunne would be ideal for both men. Dunne looking to break into the world scene and Molitor looking for a confidence builder.
Moliter was an over hyped fighter whose mgmt. doesn't have a clue.It was a nice run but now that he has been exposed as an average type boxer with no punch,it will be a long road back.
The obligatory question is: If you were Juan Manuel Lopez, Who would you fight first???? Marquez, Vazquez, or Caballero??? Think about it. Money vs. Risk. Who would be a better choice????????
Go right for Vasquez. He is the man, has a belt, and will bring the biggest payday. He will also bring the biggest risk (although I feel Marquez may be just as risky).
Molitor came out flat either way, in my eyes Caballero was always gonna take this. I mean I'm Canadian and even I bet on Caballero
no, I was looking for 2/1 odds or better to bet on Pascal, but it doesn't look like thats gonna happen. Maybe if the brits back Froch hard... Right now Pascal on points is 11/4, if it goes over 7/2 I'm there.
