Caballero kind of classless in his remarks, "Molitor is not a warrior..."
He fought a great fight though, props to him. He'd better improve his defense if he gets a fight with JMM, Vazquez, or Marquez.

Well I was just informed I didnt need a link:-\
I dont now much about Molitor, was it a brutal KO or TKO or questionable?
Sorry my Canadian Saddo Brothers.. I know you guys like him alot
The corner threw in the towel. I thought is was maybe a bit early, but the outcome was no longer in doubt at that point.Quote:

Jeez I could tell after the 1st round Molitor was going to get stopped. He had absolutely no way of keeping Caballero off of him, and you could see the fustration setting in early. What a beating
Yeah, he's normal very accurate and poised too, he was neither tonight.Quote:

Yeah I'm Canadian too so its really disappointing for me as well. Hopefully Steve can bounce back./
I thought it was clean.May have been a case of Huge fight jitters and massive assertion from Caballero combined.He walked him down,the body slowed him.I almost feel mislead...I think Molitor can/will be much better and will learn from this going forward.But tonight was Cab's but he is fugly in style,hard to root for.Quote:

Hopefully this wont be to fracturing of a loss for him... Was he all bloody and broken up?
Do you think he could do better in a rematch or should he leave well enough alone?
I think there is a host of guys who can beat Caballero it is just that it was pretty obvious that there was a style problem for Molitor. Charles pretty accurately pointed out that Caballero doesn't lean in or get flatfooted to give up his height and the most dangerous tall fighter you can face is the tall fighter who is on his feet all the time and not punching from to far out or to far in, Caballero didn't and if Molitor wanted to counter on his feet that option was pretty much taken away from him. It looked like Molitor had watched Williams-Quintana I the way he was trying to time Caballero with the left jumping in but the reason Quintana was effective was because he nullified Williams offense first. Got to give angles, move laterally in both directions not just one and most importantly not get stuck on the ropes. Was shocked to see Molitor get stuck on the ropes so much early as usually he has a good sense of where he is at in the ring and I attributed it to nerves and thought it would play out differently over the second half of the fight but obviously that never came.
