Re: ESPN FNF - Feb 1st - Carlos Molina vs. Cory Spinks
molina's really not very good.
spinks is a shell of a fighter and he can't take him out.

Re: ESPN FNF - Feb 1st - Carlos Molina vs. Cory Spinks
Molina is okay, he just lacks power.

Re: ESPN FNF - Feb 1st - Carlos Molina vs. Cory Spinks
Spinks has zero left in that corner. Just keep beating him up, it works.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Molina win by a split decision, or the fight be declared a draw.

Felix Sturm's career must be over.

Spinks has been shot for half a decade plus. This fight said more about Molina then it did Spinks.

He should punch hard enough to stop Spinks, who's just there to pick up a final payday.
Just to be a vindictive f*ck - Molina couldn't knock him out. I liked the diversity in his boxing approach when he faces different opponents. Against Kirkland, he smothered a puncher, against Spinks, he rushed in and boxed.
Molina is the perfect opponent for Canelo. He can't punch. He can box, but he can also be hit. Canelo's first top ten junior middleweight.

Oh, well, it's pretty much what we expected, Spinks prolly made $50, 000 for that shit. I would have liked seeing Castillo doing better.

Yea, from what I read, it was a close fight, and arguably Sturm won it, but still, the loss is a big set back for Sturm. He might just have to be an opponent to an American opponent now, like Quillin. Geale will face Solimon, which I bet is a big fight in Australia, right? I hope Geale steps up to a big fight after he faces Solimon.

Spinks has been boring even longer then that, the only reason he ever gets big fights is because of his father, uncle, and Don King, he's never been shit from the get go. Enough is enough, get the muther-fucker out of our faces.

I didn't even know Solimon was still fighting, how 'bout those fucking Australians, re-born hard. :-X

10-8 Mollo Mollo put Szpillka down once.

Re: ESPN FNF - Feb 1st - Carlos Molina vs. Cory Spinks
this ref is unbelievably terrible!
yelling to stop throwing punches cause of a clinch but then counts one of the punches landed as a knock down punch.
is mike mollo wearing long johns cause he's planning to get KO'd and doesn't want to get cold when the stretcher goes outside to the ambulance?

Spinks is a guy who has made much of his career over dumbing down a ring and making it ugly and doesn't mind stinking it out. K-9 fights like a homicidal caveman compared to nerf ball chucking Molina. Dude hasn't had a ko in 8 years but he out hustles and can adapt to power or stank. He hurt him, dropped him and dominated totally. I give him a well done.

Re: ESPN FNF - Feb 1st - Carlos Molina vs. Cory Spinks
Mollo cut badly over both eyes, appear to be from head butts, once in first and once in the second round. Right eye by elbow, head butt left eye.

Thanks Rant. Ive got a Polish stream on the go. The commentators are a cure for insomnia. I have Ben Harper as background noise instead. Ref's a hack.

Re: ESPN FNF - Feb 1st - Carlos Molina vs. Cory Spinks
cuts are streaming claret.

Re: ESPN FNF - Feb 1st - Carlos Molina vs. Cory Spinks
Wowowowowowow. This has turned into a barnburner.
Mollo streaming blood out of both eyes. Puts szpilka down!!!!!
Teddy Atlas screaming his head off.
Szpilka was hurt again at end of round too.
-
Re: ESPN FNF - Feb 1st - Carlos Molina vs. Cory Spinks
HORRIBLE point deduction.
-
Re: ESPN FNF - Feb 1st - Carlos Molina vs. Cory Spinks
Great bloody war so far. Mollo is as game as can be.
-
Re: ESPN FNF - Feb 1st - Carlos Molina vs. Cory Spinks
this ref likes to score the fights himself.
hey.. he didn't stop for the doctor to check the cuts that round!

wildly entertaining fight is correct.
@Freedom - your boy Szpilka ain't going to make it at the top level.

that made up for the lame FNF card!

I've never had high hopes for Artur Szpilka. However, like Chris Arreola, he's usually in entertaining fights.
I do have high hopes for Vyacheslav Glazkov.

Re: ESPN FNF - Feb 1st - Carlos Molina vs. Cory Spinks
Goddamn, why did I switch to hockey after the Molina - Spinks fight. Sounds like I missed out. Stupid Canada...

Arreola would destroy Szpilka within one or two rounds.

Re: ESPN FNF - Feb 1st - Carlos Molina vs. Cory Spinks
I hope ESPN doesn't show any more fights featuring Spinks or Castillo. Spinks has never been any fun to watch, even in his "prime", and last night's effort against Molina was just plain ugly and pathetic. It was obvious that Spinks was beyond shot, and was only there to pick up a final paycheck and/or survive. It would have been fine with me if the ref had just stopped the fight and given Molina a TKO, or DQ'd Spinks, for holding like a little bitch, falling down, or sticking his head outside the ropes to avoid taking punishment.
As for Castillo, at least the hombre is still competitive, but it's sad seeing this old champ losing fights to clowns like Antwone Smith.

Agreed. Spinks alone is boring and always has been. Molina alone is boring. Put them together and you've got.....a shot Spinks toughing it out but still getting rocked and reeled by a guy with no KO power.
I thought Castillo was a lot more competitive than Teddy or the fans' cards showed. Felt he won a good 3 rounds in there and landed many of the cleaner shots. Just couldn't sustain it and that triple jab was killin him down the stretch.
