In the first unification bout ever held in Canada, it was the visitor that didn't let the crowd down. Celestino Caballero (31 - 2 - 0, 22 KOs), WBA Super Bantamweight Champion, had the upper hand from the opening bell, with his awkward start and stop, herky jerky style. The Panamanian took a little over 3 rounds to finish off his then unbeaten opposition to unify the WBA and IBF titles.

A hard right uppercut following a body shot caught Molitor unaware and he laid out on the canvas for a second or two before realizing he was in a fight. I knew he was gone when (even though he's Canadian) he told the Spanish speaking referee he was, "bien". Speaking in foreign toungues is a tell tale sign of a KO coming. Ref Luis Pabon couldn't help but wave off the fight after 4 unanswered shots from Caballero on a defenseless Molitor slung on the ropes.

Molitor, a southpaw Sweet Scientist, didn't have the right hypothesis at all tonight. He wasn't hitting anything and was getting hit with everything, HARD. The defensive expert seemed tight and crumbled when cornered each time he was hit substantially. One hard right uppercut in the last seconds of the 3rd round foreshadowed what was to occur in the first minute of the 4th as he wobbled over to his corner.

This fight may have exposed yet another boxer who cannot handle the pressure of a brawler. Was he outclassed stepping up in opposition? Or as his trainer told him, was it, "not Steve Molitor out there" tonight?
