    Fellas, this guy Feliciano is absolutely terrible. He has no defense in the world. I never saw him fight Kermit, but watching his fight tonight against this other scrub really shows how overrated Kermit is. Any elite fighter would destroy this guy or at least beat him decisively. For kermit to have struggled against this guy truly shows how terrible he is.

    Floyd would have target practice on thisguys face all day. Cotto would just either have target practice or brutalize him. Margarito would just knock his clumsy, uncoordinated ass out. He is absolutely terrible.

    AND WHAT THE HELL IS THAT WIND UP **** HE WAS DOING??????? Did you hear the commentators call it a "bolo punch" or something like that. Man, was it ugly.

    He is entertaining to watch him however b/c he has heart, so i'll give him that much. But again, Kermit truly sucks to have struggled against this scrub.

    I agree with alot of your post but you aren't familiar with a bolo punch? Roy Jones JR used to do that to show off

    Anyone who saw Kermit vs. Feliciano and still picked Cintron over Margarito deserves 30 lashes.

    Well, let's stop for a second here. For one, Feliciano doesn't belong at 154. Secondly, it's very possible Cintron took the starch out of him. And third, Feliciano fought like an absolute maniac that night. That alone was scaring the mess out of Cintron, and he started tightening up.

    This fight doesn't make me think much more or less of Cintron. If you can eat his right hand and pressure him, you win. You don't need to see Feliciano kayoed to know that.

    Good points. I also think Felciano looked small enough to make 140.

    Feliciano needs to give up boxing, he already looks brain dead.

    Apollo, I feel you man. I'm just saying that clearly Jesse is no where near elite status. At best, he is a C class fighter. For Kermit not to take advantage of that terrible defense says a lot about his mental state and overall skill. It also says a lot about Manny S b/c he should have used this fight to help better prepare kermit for margarito.

    It says a hell of a lot about Manny, no doubt. The mastermind who tells his charges to "start boxing" only after their chins get rocked couldn't guide Cintron, a vastly superior pure athlete, into doing what Tsurkan intuited in less than four rounds tonight; Feliciano's carriage becomes a pumpkin if you step back to create space and punish his horrible defense.

    Cintron just kept crowding him and acting shellshocked when he got windmilled. Just an awful fight plan.

    It's sad too b/c I like Manny for the most part. But if he couldnt properly train Kermit for this guy, then he is no good. It's not like kermit is the first fighter to suffer either. You have Taylor, who only regressed with manny. The only reason Wlad is doing ok is b/c the other heavy's are that much worse and he is sooooooooo damn huge. Offensively, he seems very limited as well and is extremely gun shy.

    I hope kermit gets a new trainer. As for feliciano, he needs to either retire or learn some damn defense.

    Those were hopeful picks Lance. Not realistic ones.

    You know I don't love Cintron, but I hope the guy comes back and makes another run at a title, cause he deserves some credit for fighter a monster in Margarito twice, when nobody in the division would fight the guy once for a very long time. Cintron with as limited as he is, if he could get it through his thick skull that he doesn't have to win by KO, could use his size advantage and fight at a distance and win on points. It's not like Margarito wasn't there for him to hit.
