And Molitor likes it...
"Your typical boxer might object to being referred to as a pretty boy, but not Steve Molitor. He's turning the verbal punch thrown at him by Celestino Caballero into a compliment.
"It's great," says Molitor. "It just goes to show how slick my defence really is.
"I've been boxing for almost 20 years and I've still got a pretty face. That's a credit to my defensive skills. I'm not all banged up like other guys."
Asked why he's been calling Molitor a pretty boy, Caballero said through an interpretor that "he's not a warrior who takes chances. He always fights careful and safe."
Caballero will have a four-inch height advantage over the 5-foot-7 Canadian. With his long reach, he says he intends to put Molitor away within six rounds.
"(Molitor) will be on the run all night long and, by the end, Caballero will be the super champion," said the Panamanian's trainer Francisco Arroyo.
