	Marlon Starling how good was he? - East Side Boxing Forum
		Starling was the best welterweight in the world for about two years....he'd probably march right through today's blown up lightweights and money seeking pretty boys.
		I also think that based on his match's past Honeyghan, Starling had mentally passed his peak and no longer cared as much about his trade as in years gone by when he was truly hungry.
		Starling imo heard the bell and even though his hands were still raised, he was about to drop them hearing the bell....Starling mentally relaxed, but the punch by Molinares was already on it's way.

	Marlon Starling how good was he? - Page 2 - East Side Boxing Forum
		The NC ruling was fair, but Starling was definitely winding up to throw a shot as he was hit by the KO shot.
		One other thing that I remember about Starling was that an opponent of his early on died of injuries suffered in their fight....Starling seemed to kind of go easier on opponents after that.
		Starling was turning away from Molinares when he was hit, but he wasn't turning away to head to his corner, he was turning away as he was winding up to load up with a right hand.

	Marlon Starling vs Pipino Cuevas - The Cyber Boxing Zone Message Board
		You know at first I would pick Starling based on his defence and quicker hands.But Cuevas is not the type of boxer you want to mess around with on the inside and Starling often liked fighting on the inside.Cuevas by 9th round tko after being behind for most of the bout.
		The Magic Man's defense I think, IF Marlon was performing at his absolute best (whihc he should be in a fantasy bout), could lead him to a close points win.
		Starling held those hands up nice and high and I think he fights a negative type bout to let the early rounds go by.

		A victory over Starling would have set things right in many people’s eyes, but it was not to be as "The Magic Man" made Breland’s title disappear in 11 rounds.
		Four months after the Starling rematch, Breland dusted three consecutive opponents in a single round, the last of which was Seung Soon Lee for the WBA title vacated by Starling’s successor Tomas Molinares.
		It was an exasperating start for Breland, who had tried for the past year to shake the images of the two Starling fights from the public’s mind.
