IBF light middleweight champion Carlos Molina has been jailed in Las Vegas two days before a scheduled fight.
Molina is being held at the Clark County jail on a federal immigration hold and a warrant accusing him of failing to register as a sex offender seven years ago in Wisconsin.
Las Vegas police Officer Laura Meltzer said Thursday the 30-year-old Molina was arrested Tuesday on a 2007 warrant from Outagamie (out-ah-GAY'-mee) County, Wisconsin.
Molina made an appearance Thursday before a Las Vegas judge and tried to post $10,000 bail.
But Meltzer says his release was denied after Las Vegas police learned he was also sought by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Molina (22-5-2, 6 KOs) is scheduled to fight Jermall Charlo (17-0, 13 KOs) on Saturday.
Lol Smh. Who listens to r Kelly? In fact **** r Kelly. Dont try too hard bro. I find it hilarious when Hispanics and blacks are racist against each other. That's called losing out.
Real Talk ^^^^^^^^^^
:lol1: @ listening to R Kelly....didn't even know he was still in the game lol
That's why I reserve judgment for stuff like this. What he did is not even bad. Its a ridiculous law that a lot of people are guilty of just not reported.
So he raped an underage girl and he had to register as a sex offender for a lifetime? Wow America does not play around, over here he would probably get helped and get freebies.
I'm going to laugh at the AAs that say "Fuck Molina" and then go jam to R Kelly.
No man should touch a minor. Sick Shit!
I was really looking forward to this fight. If true doe, I'm done as a Molina fan.

What the hell does being African-American have to do with Molina and his situation? So you can be white/orange/purple and say this and jam R. Kelly, huh? You sound dumb.
This is the only fight I cared about this weekend. 2014 sucks so far for boxing.
I agree with you, 2014 is a very disappointing year of boxing, I can't see any interesting scheduled fight in the horizon, except Groves vs Froch II
if all it was was him being 18 and a consentual 15/16 year old that aint bad... but if its more than that then **** molina
they were probably in high school together... a grade 12 student & a grade 10 student... back when I was in HS this was pretty normal. in Canada the consent age use to be 14. in other countries like Russia it use to be normal to see 20some year olds with teenagers... sergei fedorov was 24 when he was dating anna kounikouva & she was 15.. the only backlash he got was in America & Canada but people realized that this was not uncommon over there at the time. arranged marriages in some countries are like this as well. from country to country & from state to state there are different laws & traditions... it's not like Molina was hiding anything considering he was on espn several times. would espn air a pedo's fights? I highly doubt it. i'm still baffled why it's even an issue if his warrants date back to 2005 & 2007. they could have picked him up a hundred times but didn't. this whole situation baffles me. sounds like a ploy to get some of that $275000 purse by someone...
I tweeted dan about that. See if I get a reply to whether he loses the belt on the scales or not
I sure jail food isn't to tasty... they get fed like 1400 cals a day...
