Steve Molitor Turns Down Bernabe Concepcion

[XaduBoxer]

Concepcion challenged Molitor on the strength of Concepcion being the NABF Super Bantam champ... Also that Molitor being considered as the weakest among the current 122 world champs...

.

It's a bit misleading to say Molitor is the weakest of all the bantamweight champs as although clearly he lacks the experience and resume's of the other guys he's developing into a fantastic fighter.

If he fought Ponce De Leon and Cabbelero right now he has an excellent chance of beating either in my opinion.

Vazquez is obviously a really tough fight but we've yet to see the effect that the ring wars Marquez and Vazquez have had and how detrimental it will be to their future careers.

Quite honestly I've got a feeling Marquez is now on the slide and Vazquez has been in many ring wars.

It's possible Molitor could emerge as the divisions best fighter over the next 12/18 months, certainly number 2 behind Vazquez.

By calling Molitor as the weakest 122 champ, Team Concepcion might have based it on KO percentage;

Ponce De Leon - 88% (30 KO of 34 wins)

Vazquez - 72% (31 of 43)

Caballero - 68% (19 of 28 )

Molitor - 37% (10 of 27)


BTW, Concepcion has a 56% KO ratio (14 of 25)...
