    Does Carlos Molina have a chance vs Kirkland?

    Carlos Molina is a high volume puncher, with a great chin and has great endurance.

    Kirkland is a monster puncher, who has a questionable chin but has the power to knock everyone out in that weight division.

    I think Kirkland is the overwhelming favorite because of his recent KO of El Perro.

    It took him pretty long to take a man out that was out on his feet from the minute round 2/3 started.

      Kirkland will smash Molina.

      I'm not sure how big the ring is, but if it's a small ring, I see Kirkland cutting off the ring and forcing himself on Molina. I think Molina will give up a fight early (as in 1st 2-3 rounds), then after that Kirkland will just flat out apply his will on Molina.

      Kirkland via stoppage.

        Molina is not gonna stand there and trade with Kirkland a la Angulo. That would be his only chance IMO Molina by decision...unless he gets robbed like he did against Chavez (once for sure, dunno about the other one) Alvarado (was at fight) and Lara. Molina is a LOT better than his record indicates.

          decent chance if he can survive the early rounds. The longer it goes the more I think he will gain his bearings and adjust to the pressure

            Angulo has an incredible chin.

            I'm picking Kirkland early but I'm with you that if the fight goes longer than expected, I can Molina coming on late.

                    Kirkland hits hard but he aint no Adam Trupish. Most of his KOs are by accumulation. Trupish has more power
