    Yeah - it was a good win for Cintron.....He boxed well and most importantly didnt seem to get discouraged when he got hit or Angulo didnt go down from his punches right away.

    I didnt like Cintron because of his candy azz antics after the Margarito and Martinez fights but found myself rooting for him at the end of Angulo....I did think he was going to pull a Jermaine Taylor in the 12th.....I am glad he held on. Hopefully Angulo doesnt get too discouraged cause the guy can bang and still compete....

    Haven't see the fight but I kinda always liked Cintron, not a huge fan but I fairly appreciate the dude. What I am happy about it is that it's a good win under his belt and he doesn't seem to have lost confidence in his means. He needs to condition a bit more, maybe and I am sure that the Kronk is a good place to improve pressure defense, that's one of the thing thatManny normally does well.

    Cintron did a great fight and maintained his game plan thru the fight. At a moment during the last round I thought that Cintron was going to fall apart due to Angulo's pressure, but he could recover and connect a couple of solid right hands close to the end of the round. It was a great fight and congratulations to Kermit. It seems that Angulo's team saw Cintron as an additional step and thought that he was going to fall apart, but Cintron's experience was too much for Angulo. Congratulations once again to Cintron, great fight and I hope that he can recover all his confidence and the title...

    I wasn't very impressed with Cintron. He did what it took to win but something about it just left a bad taste in my mouth. If it was a 13 round fight Cintron would have been on the canvas, he had nothing left that last round and didn't even bother to throw hands in it.

    I thought his character was that, when pressured, he breaks down and starts crying....

    I was rooting for Cintron, and thought it was a good win for him. I still don't like the fact that he's inconsistent from fight to fight. And he needs to continue working on his mental/emotional aspects. He's a solid boxer, with KO power in both hands. But he needs to continue working on his mindset if he's to continue climbing back to the top.

    Good win for Cintron. Angulo should have waited before this big of a step up in class.

    Any of the best at 154 will beat Cintron.

    yea believe me dude we don't consider him one of our own, same goes for Ruiz, in fact his nickname on this part of the island is Kermit "El Lloron" Cintron, and well even if he did surprise me with a win over Angulo, he didn't impress, he'll lose again against Martinez, and also against Kirkland, Williams, and even Santos and Forrest, when most Puerto Ricans are going for Angulo, it's gotta be saying something, i never thought much of Angulo, especially after his last time out, but i do admit that i like that he's willing to take on all comers, but unfortunately he earned himself a nickname of his own, Alfredo "Le Comieron el Culo" Angulo

    He's not with Emmanuel Steward any more, he trains with Ronnie Shields now in Houston. I was happy for him too, because alot of people have been hating on him for the Margarito fights, he didnt fold and has shown some heart for not going into a shell, and he does fight tough guys on the regular.
