    When he TKOs Molina, I'll say what I've been saying since I first watched Kirkland.

    He's a fearless warrior and would be problematic for anyone in the 154lbs division.

    That he is a Glass Jawed Joke who will be brutalized by anyone who can punch and even some feather fisters like Ishida. He is a joke, and while he will probably beat Molina who is quite crude and can't punch, with a Chin that bad there is ALWAYS the chance that he will be starched. I can't wait to see him fight some better JMWs because he will be put on ***** Street more times than George Michael.

    I still think James Kirkland's chin is and will be suspect whether he beats Molina or not.....

    But if he KO's Molina, I think he would be the second best fighter at 154... after Canelo Alvarez (Alvarez has way better lateral movement, and head movement, and chin plus faster hands).. probably better than Cotto (at this point) even though I still rank Cotto number 1 of the division until he loses...

    And I also think he would be the most accomplished fighter at the weight currently because no one else has done nothing much there.. even more accomplished than Paul Williams at 154...

    I would like to see him in there with Canelo, if not Bundrage or Austin Trout barring he wins... My prediction: Kirkland TKO11

    Kirkland has a weak chin, and that cintron fight was no fluke. Cintron really is a *****.

    He may get knocked down, but he'll get up and put it on you.

    Kirkland is fascinating. Could faceroll his opponent immediately... could get KO'd. You just never know.

    If he dominates or quickly dispenses with Molina, get that boy a title shot or a name contender ASAP. Bundrage, Spinks, P-Will, Dzinziruk, Lara, somebody...

    Glass jaw my ass, Kirkland is a beast and when he gets through with Monlina, all the prima donnas of boxing will continue to duck him like hes the black plauge. I think Lara will be the only fighter thats willing to face him and thats because he is desparate, but he's going down too.

    I expect it to happen so my thoughts won't change much. I hope anyone facing Kirkland isn't foolish enough to think it will be easy because of his chin like many posters here seem to think.

    If he KO's Molina, he remains exactly who he is already....a hard punching, but flawed contender who is equally capable of blasting anyone out of there to smithereens- or having his head handed to him on a silver platter.

    Best Jr. Middleweight not named Mayweather or Cotto. That would give him two wins over divisional grim reapers. Definitely would like to see him against Lara.

    He will continute to be one of my favorite fighters to watch. The man brings it and always entertains. His defense is lacking and I will never compare him to Marvin Hagler, but can enjoy him for what he is.
