[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

IBF junior middleweight champion Ishe Smith (25-5, 11KOs) revealed that he suffered an injury and plans to withdraw from his scheduled defense against Carlos Molina (21-5-2, 6KOs) on July 19th at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.

The fight was scheduled to headline a Showtime televised tripleheader. No word if the entire card will be canceled or if the other two fights will move ahead. Mickey Bey is going to face John Molina and Badou Jack may go up against Farah Ennis. [Click Here To Read More]

As long as it's rescheduled all is good, it does sound legit.

Smith better remind Mayweather and Haymon that he is going to need some favorable judging because Carlos Molina is coming for that belt.

that sucks

Ishe is a paper champion, been a fringe contender his entire career, and can't punch. Me thinks he may have gotten a call from Richard Schaefer and was offered an Adrien Broner fight...and he's gonna take it." 23 years old, 4 titles in 4 weight divisions. Who else is doing that?" Heehee

Nope Rumored is he failed the inhouse drug test The Mayweather Boxing Clubs now does for all there fighters and so they are faking a injury

Heard it here first.

sounds right, Molina would have schooled Ishe just like Molina schooled Lara coming off a 2 year lay-off.

Pffff.. more like in a few days a hire a makeup artist. Ishe got the Cotto call.

Edit: I'm not completely serious. Injury is probably legit, but it would surprised me if he withdrew to ensure a Cotto fight.
