I honestly think that this is the most lopsided fight of the night. i think the Angulo/Rivera fight will be more competitive. Credit to Cintron for having the guts or lack of brains to get in the ring with Sergio Martinez. Cintron is biting off more than he can chew at this point in his career. He is not prepared for the embarassment he will feel after he gets schooled by Martinez. i am a fan of Cintron, but I think this is the worst possible fight that could have been made for him at 154. i don't even see this one being close. Ronnie Shields will throw in the towel after round 8 or 9.
I got Martinez. Cintron didn't look good in his last fight. Not to mention he will be bothered by Martinez speed.
I'll be there live in the cheap seats watching (squinting) Martinez giving Cintron a boxing lesson. Martinez by UD
Too skilled ??? The only fighter with a name on Martinez resume is Alex Bunema . . . . . . only advantage for Martinez is him being a naturally heavier fighter.
Betting odds are as follows: Martinez is at -160 and Cintron is at +120. I think this fight could possibly be a a white wash win for Martinez. Moving in and out and just being too fast and skilled for Cintron. But Cintron's got that puncher's chance.
Martinez will dominate Cintron. No doubt in my mind. Too fast, too mobile, too versatile... Martinez is better defensively, has a better sense of timing, just a better boxer.. better than Cintron at everything other than pure KO power, where Cintron has the obvious edge.. But what good is power when you will barely be able to touch your opponent? Martinez will box circles around him.. just look at the guys Cintron has faced.. Margarito, Matthyse, N'dou, Estrada, Feliciano.. these are guys that stand in front of you.. easy targets.. Cintron has never seen anyone as slick as Martinez... Martinez will befuddle him and cruise to an easy UD
No, Campbell-Funeka was always gonna be the headlining fight. Angulo-Mayorga woulda been 2nd, and Martinez-Cintron was supposed to be the opening fight. Now Angulo-Riveria will be the opening fight, and Martinez-Cintron will be come after. I'm picking Martinez by UD.
