Molitor-Caballero - Let's talk here...

[CFH]

As a big Molitor fan this fight worries me. That being said, Molitor by close UD/SD. I wouldn't be surprised if he had to get up off the canvas to win.

Your worries has solid basis... Caballero's range, freakish built and knockout power makes him one of the most avoided boxers... Props to Molitor for taking this fight...

Good to see a Canadian for "The Canadian Kid"...

Unlike those Mexicans rooting for a Philippino boxer... (joke)
.

As we've discussed, I think Molitor's movement will give Caballero problems, but getting inside on him and actually doing some damage without taking a ton of punishment in return will be his biggest challenge. I guess that's kind of an obvious statement though.

How is Caballero's inside game? I imagine it would be one of his weaker areas.

Not good throwing inside like most tall boxers but Caballero is good in clinching/hugging and pushing his shorter opponents...

That's what I figured.

I know he has good power, but is it one-shot power or more accumulative?

From what I saw in his fights, if you got hit by one or two clean shots from Caballero and got wobbled then you're dead... Caballero with his range can easily tee off some long cracking shots to finish you off both to the body and head...

One more question, has he ever faced anyone who's style is comparable to Molitor's?

I think no one yet... I think Molitor will be the best skilled boxer he will ever face...

Caballero's notable wins are against Daniel Ponce DeLeon, Somsak, Lorenzo Parra and Jose Luis Valbuena... His loses were inflicted by tall boxers...

Really glad Caballero is finally getting another name guy to fight. I stated a while back i think he may be the most underrated fighter in boxing today.
