I do think Kermit Cintron's power is somewhat overrated, but i certainly feel enough to stop Sergio Martinez if he catches him that is.
I don't think Cintron's power is overrated at all, he has the heaviest hands at 147 imo. I do think Martinez's workrate is going to frustrate him though. I'm going with Martinez by wide UD.
I do think he has heavy hands no doubt but his power is a tad overrated IMO, Jesse Felicano was KO'ed in 4 rounds against light hitting Demetrius Hopkins. And he was also stopped in 1 round getting dropped 3 times against lighting hitting Mike Arnaoutis.
Yet Kermit Cintron never come close to putting Jesse Feliciano down, despite hitting him with everything but the kitchen sink. He also recently couldn't stop the smaller Lovemore N'dou, Lovemore N'dou is tough but you would expect he would of stopped the smaller Lovemore N'dou, who spent all his career below Welterweight.
I have not seen the Hopkins fight was it a clean KO?
The Arnoutis fight, Feliciano was definately not himself, I mean look at the shots landed by Tsurken and Cintron they were much stronger shots and better leverage.
Honestly Feliciano and N'Dou have some of the best whiskers in the biz.

For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
