Conclusions about Cintron?

[nozorok]

Mark Suarez, Teddy Reid & David Estrada were all solid contenders that Cintron blasted out, & Matthysse was a dangerous fighter, even if his conditioning & training habits a little suspect.

Cintron's could still pick up another title if he continues seriously - would like to see him in against the rejuvenated Quintana, Paul Williams or Andre Berto after a confidence builder against a journeyman.

However, what has become pretty clear is that he doesn't handle consistent pressure very well.
He could fight Margarito a dozen times with exact same result, & pretty much the same against Cotto, although suspect he would do better against Cotto (Cotto simply not as busy as Margarito when he starts fast)

Him beating Paul Williams & Carlos Quintana would be a big deal for him personally, as well as a kind of boxing justification, & hope he goes for those fights.

Also, if Margarito vacates to fight Cotto, he'd probably be in line to fight the winner of Clottey & who-ever as the former champ.
Him against Clottey would be worth watching.

He can definitely beat people with shaky chins like Berto with a single punch and possibly Quintana who usually gasses down the stretch. Cintron vs. Williams is probably a toss up because Paul has no power but can take a good beating and throws a lot of weak shots to score points. Clottey, on the other hand is durable and has good defense which is probably why Cintron didn't defend his title against him and would probably frustrate Cintron. Say what you want about Cintron but he has great power and a pretty solid chin as well seeing that no one has dropped him with a single shot yet or put him on ***** street with the same. He just needs better management in choosing fights he can win and look good doing so.
