For the WBO Title, great bit of business by Maloney to get this fight, I think Molitor is too good for Booth but it is deffo what he deserves, supposed to be in England.

I don't know anything about Booth, but Molitor has looked terrible since the shit-kicking Caballero gave him. He barely beat Ndlovu in his last fight and he barely beat Heriberto Ruiz (who?) shortly before that.
Booth is a tidy little boxer I think he showed a bit of wear and tear himself against Marsh last time and I also don't think he is a Super Bantamweight, hes a good guy who has been through a lot, he is like a watered down version of Johnny Tapia outside the ring well was anyway ;D.Quote:

After his last few fights I have a hard time favoring Molitor against any legitimate opponent. He's a shadow of the fighter who beat Hunter. He fights scared since the Caballero fight, he's shown a very shaky chin, and his defensive slickness seems to have largely disappeared. I'm not saying I think Booth will win, I don't know enough about him and his resume doesn't appear very impressive at first glance.Quote:

Wow, pretty shocked. Molitor will be too good but good on ya Booth.
Molitor has struggled with journeymen since the Caballero massacre. I think Booth would have a decent chance here, especially in the UK.
Think it could go either way this one but Molitor looks the more favourable out of the two. I've heard that he hasn't impressed in his last few fights and Booth escaped with a lucky win over Matt Marsh in his last fight.
I like the Booth brothers but they are not world class, hope he wins, that would be a great story.
I only hope we'll find back the Molitor of old because with in theory a better trainer and more experience under his belt, he should at least remain what he used to be and somewhere, I believe he'll can get back the confidence he once had.
