Don't rule out Lara just yet remember Lara is a Southpaw and the 2 losses Williams has were against Southpaws (Martinez & Quintana).

Look at this from an interview today:

Williams: To be honest, with me, I really don’t know the difference in fighting a right handed or left handed fighter. I just know there has been time where Mr. Peterson has said, “Wake up, you’re fighting a left handed fighter.” I just go in there and fight.​

lol to me that shows he doesn't know how to properly fight southpaws which explains why he struggles with them and is so damn wide open to be hit.

What are the odds on Molina/Cintron? I don't bet anymore but I might be willing to drop a little bit on Molina.
Carlos Molina +255
Kermit Cintron -310

o9½ -175
u9½ +155


You really think Molina can pull it off? I know he has an iron head but Kermit I think is a class above him skillwise, as long as he doesn't mentally break down.

Ill post the odds in the morning (on my phone now)

I was going to ask u ur breakdown of Lara vs Williams and also ur thoughts of kid chocolate moving down to 160 (good or bad)
It's a rough fight for both of them IMO. Lara is a southpaw but he doesn't fight the same as Quintana/Martinez. Lara is more of a straight forward technical fighter who relies a lot on his sledge hammer straight left to get it done. That comment you posted about Williams and fighting southpaws makes me feel a lot better for Lara. I'm clearly pulling for Lara though..

I think Quillin would be fine at MW. Unlike the Guerrero situation Quillin has found at middle before and ever some of his SMW fights he was weighing in closer to 160. Should be a good move.

Molina is all bad for Cintron. He's a frustrating fighter and Cintron is easily frustrated. Molina would have a much better record if he got a fair shake at decisions including both fights with JCC Jr and Lara.

Molina's class is underrated IMO. He fought Lara tough after being inactive for a long period of time.

I'm going to be a happy man tomorrow. Some very good action fights will be going down. Can Paul Williams comeback from being put to sleep? Will Rios continue his rise to superstardom? Will Kermit jump out of the ring again? All questions will answered tomorrow I can't wait.

Damn Paul Bunyan.

I placed a small par on Lara (+260) w/ Rios (-500).
where you bet at?

I put $20 on lara by decision at +1005 for shits & giggles and also a small amount on him to win straight up at +325.

For the record I have a feeling he's going to lose because of Williams pressure will be too great for him to overcome, just didn't want to pass those odds cuz I think it's about a 60/40 fight.
