Steve Molitor by 12 Rd Decision (-108) 2.16 units to win 2
Looks like I'm going against the board here but I like Molitor to outbox CC. Caballero gets a lot of love because of how big he is, but he never really impresses me. I think his style is ugly and certainly won't be enough to impress the judges in Canada. I think Molitor is in another league and he will show it to the US audience tonight.
Paulie Malignaggi (+220) 2 units to win 4.40
Malignaggi by 12 rd decision (+321) 2 units to win 6.42
I'm already on record as saying that this is my second favorite play of the year. Paulie hasn't looked great his last few fights and he will need to be better to grab a decision here. I think he will be. In my opinion, the more skilled fighter is a 2+-1 dog here. Ricky Hatton was outboxed by Luis Collazo. He was embarassed by Mayweather. I think it is going to happen again. I think Hatton's power, if he ever even had much, has eroded. Lazcano easily stood in there with him over 12. Paulie's a tough SOB, as evidenced by the Cotto fight and moments in other fights when he has survived. Hatton's power won't get to him. The underdog is the better fighter in this fight. If it wasn't for Paulie's hands, I'd put my house up on this fight.
