Kermit Cintron: Where to now?

[El Kabong]

Hey buddy just look at his body language...he's worse than Shane Mosley with his body language. He shows when he's frustrated, scared, and believes he's losing.


You can see as a fighter when you're getting to him mentally and when he starts doubting himself and his ability. It takes mental toughness to shrowd that and not give your opponent any momentum

Yeah again I agree, especially on the mental toughness part it's obvious. How many times did he look to the referee in that bout? A few times he wasn't even hit on the back of the head. The first time Margarito was warned, he came back and landed 2 clean to the side of the head in front of the ear and Cintron still complained but was not bailed out that time.

Kermit has heart but he just doesn't know how to handle things when the going gets tough. He gets overwhelmed too much and he's probably always gonna be like that. Cintron's problem is he can't handle extreme pressure fighters and realistically Tony's pressure is one of a kind at 147 because he smothers you and doesn't stop throwing punches. Cintron is a contender as long as he's not in the same ring as Margarito. He basically ducked Williams to fight Tony and that was probably the biggest mistake of his life. He can be champion again but he's always gonna be a headcase. I wouldn't say his career has peaked but he can never be considered champ at 147 with Margo around. Maybe he needs to go to 154.

Probably Cintron wiilfeel more strong in JMW Div. , he will take use his High , maybe look much better in that weight......but have to change his mentality because in that Div. have more damn hard hitters , Do you imagine Cintron with Mayorga? .....LOLOL

[El Kabong]

Cintron should stay at 147....he showed his chin is pretty damn good because those shots he took from Margarito were big power punches.


Cintron just needs to stay away from Margarito

[:::PSL:::]

Cintron looked pretty sloppy last night, and he didn't look like a guy with a big heart at all. He kept using his back of his head (which is a dumb thing to do) to block Margo's assaults. He's got power but his defense suck ass. Great game plan by Tony by jumping on Kermit right away.

I hope Cotto-Margarito happens this July. Can't wait!

Wouldn't surprise me if he took on Gomez for a confidence booster fight.

[Kirkland Laing]

He's mentally fragile but he can beat any welterweight out there apart from Margarito, Cotto, Floyd, maybe Williams just with his power. He can have a Zab Judah-type career, failing in his big fights.
