Just as long as they illegally lead in with there head constantly, aslong as they get a few cheeky shots in illegally on the break, aslong as they illegally hold his arms to prevent any inside fighting for 10 seconds every 10 seconds, aslong as they illegally punch while they hold his head down bent over and aslong they have a ref who doesn't give two hoots then your right Socrates Kirkland is in big trouble.

To quote Ricky Hatton, it's not a tickling contest.

If he struggles to deal with, let's face it, very limited and basic spoiling tactics how is he going to cope with speed, lateral movement, different angles. He got a gimme last night otherwise he'd have lost.

If it's not a body bag or a slugger Kirkland will struggle. Look at his record and who he has fought, I just don't see why people have such a hard-on for him.

Ricky Hatton was an inside fighter who likes to work the body just like Kirkland. He held his opponents to work on the inside... Molina didn't work on the inside he just made sure Kirkland couldn't by trapping his arms which is not allowed.

You say he'd of lost but the fight wasn't even close to being over... Molina had finally relented to Kirklands power. After the Knockdown Kirkland would have been right back in it on the scores and was another Knockdown from taking it on points. You really think Kirkland wasn't on the brink of unloading all over Molina? The fight was a 12 round fight not 10 Socrates your entire post is based on assumption.

As is yours.

The difference is yours is also laced with fanboydom.

Good but it's not right... you stated to me that Kirkland would have lost the fight if not for the DQ (an assumption). I simply offered you one of the many possilble outcomes that still could have taken place in 6 long minutes (not an assumption).

If the above makes me a 'fanboy' then it certainly also makes you a 'hater'.
