This interview was taken right after Cintron KO of Matthese on 7/14/07....
Interviewer: Mayweather seems to be interested in real big money, do you see that as a fight that can ever materialize and how you think something like that would play out if it ever happens?
Cintron: Uhmm you know it a fight that I think is a little risky for him, you know I think he picking his uhmm his fighters now, I think he's just picking his shots. Uhmm and you know he's fighting uhmm from what I hear he want to fight Ricky Hatton.
Ricky Hatton is a 140 lber you know who comes forward and anybody can I think in my opinion anybody in the welterweight division can beat him. And like I said he's just picking his opponents and uhmmm he doesn't want to take that big risk.
2 questions:
1. what do you think of Kermit Cintron
2. Can he beat Floyd Mayweather Jr?
well, isnt that really the only chance anyone would have against mayweather? mayweather has shown that he can pot shot and pick apart just about anyone, so wouldnt it really take someone with 1 punch power to catch him in order to win? I think Pwil would give mayweather a good fight as well, because of his activity level, but on thing mayweather has shown... he does not like getting hit and tenses up when he does.
not necessarily true. i think a fighter like williams if he were to utillize his advantages, has a lot more of a shot at beating mayweather than a fighter like cintron. i am not downplaying kermit and his ability, but it is an obvious fact his one punch power (and that is serious power!!!) would be his only chance. i think this would be a lopsided UD
Answer to your first question. I think this is a young man who has alot of potential. Good, young fighter who is under the toolage of Stewrd. Answer to your second question, I don't think he an beat Floyd. Kermit seems like a fighter who can let things get to him mentally which is never a good thing. A journeyman fighter gave Cintron all he could handle last time out so right now, I don't see Cintron beating the p4p best fighter in the ring.
Uhmm, what do you think about posting a link. Anything without one is irrelavant.
Sure go into the boxingscene video archive and you will see a video for 7/14/07...it will have Kermit face on it. Click on it and you will see the interview.
THis is interesting, and here's why. I see you are a Newb here.
How am I a newb when I join BEFORE you did.
I also see this same exact post, word for word, at 3 other boxing forums, posted by a newb... are you just going forum to forum posting the same thing from an interview taken 6 months ago?
Those are just my other account...that all.
pretty lame if you ask me.
Yeah but guess what, no one ask for your phucking opinion.
Kermit is good but he has ALOT to prove to see if he is the elite of the division. Kermit has KO power in that right hand and if he tagged Floyd with it he would have a very good shot. That is alot easier said than done so I don't see him beating Any of the other champs let alone Floyd.
cintron is a good fighter and anyone can win a fight against anyone on any particulair day, so you never know, like it's been said before on this forum, he's got a punchers chance, and he's got a damn good punch, gotta wait to see happens

he would have a punchers chance thats about it

exactly right. pbf will give him mega fits, thus causing him to have a meltdown that would even make zab proud!
Kermit is a good fighter, but not the elite of the WW division. I mean Margarito destroyed him and he looked like ass against Feliciano, and it seems now is wanting nothing to do with Paul Williams.
I don't think he would have a chance against Money May with Mayweather boxing his pants off for 12 rounds for an easy UD. Maybe even a Shutout.
