As reported on The Boxing Tribune:
On the undercard of Agbeko-Perez, 31 year old IBF light middleweight champion Cory Spinks will defend his belt against Mexican Carlos Molina.
26 year old Molina (17-4-1, 5 KOs) is ranked 14 by the IBF and has notched up 9 straight victories since 2008. Molina has lost to Mike Alvardo by majority decision and remains the only guy that has drawn against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., before losing their rematch.
Spinks (37-5, 11 KOs) is hoping to use his ring experience against Molina on Saturday. Spinks has been in the ring with many big modern names such as Zab Judah, Ricardo Mayorga and Jermain Taylor.
The fight will not be televised by Showtime who have shown more interest in DaVarryl Williamson vs. Ray Austin and Antonio DeMarco vs. Jose Alfaro as their undercard broadcast.
I kinda wanted to see Spinks fight this one...He is in for an upset...Molina is a vastly improved fighter and Spinks is pretty much done...I would liked to have watched Molina light up Spinks and get rid of him once and for all...

That's why I wanted Moore to win last Friday. There was an inside rumour that Moore had Spinks as WBC really want Cesar Chavez Jr. as champion and will allow him to beat a journeyman to get the belt. Moore would've finished Spinks bright and early.
Spinks should cruise past Molina, but the right Spinks needs to turn up. It's got a Forrest-Mora feal to it I must say.

I'm predicting the upset...Molina is a good fighter who was brought up the right way...

I'd rather see "Touch of Sleep" versus "Rainman" Ray Austin. Am I a bad person?

Touch of Sleep is the one of the worst or coolest ring-names I've ever heard.

Touch of Sleep is the one of the worst or coolest ring-names I've ever heard. He got beat by Kali Meehan, so it's pretty bad. And some cat is calling himself "The Real Touch of Sleep," which is even worse!
