My big disappointment was that Molina was so artless about his holding and tying up. No style at all.
Kirkland may be too dumb to be a good fighter, and Ann Wolfe is useless in a corner.

honestly man you couldnt be more wrong

and i dont blame molina or mcphilbin, had either have fought within the rules they would have more than likely have been knocked out, but why would they if they can get away with it?

and refs seem to be happy to let these tactics go in more and more fights
WWE is entertainment, Boxing is a competitive sport. I do agree that excessive holding does make boring fights and should be penalised but if a guy was trying to knock your head off would you just get knocked out? or hold and spoil his work and try getting the W? In my view boxing is a sport first and then entertainment.
