Khan KO7
Rounds 1 2 3 See Molina get off some nice shots and stun khan for a few seconds. He tries to stay on the inside and some of Khan's old tendencies get shown Khan outmanuvers his opponent around and starts landings shots on the outside and leaping hard shots on the inside on the liver (old tendency) Slowly breaks down his opponent. Let's the KO/TKO come by itself That happens if Khan actually fucking understood what Hunter said in camp. I personally want to see Khan throw that jab a lot more. I didn't see that in the Hunter video. He has unbelievably long arms, is an outside fighter, it shocks me he only jabs around 30% of the time. For me, a good part of his success from his next two fights will be seeing that jab percent go to at least around 40% Rumor has it while out of the ref's immedate range Molina is going to get dirty Last edited by zetsui; 12-15-2012 at 06:31 AM. |

I think Khan boxes relaxed in the first couple of rounds. Molina may get inside and throw quick combinations hungry to get inside after, but Khan is going to show maturity in handling it, either pivoting, holding, spinning, or countering before regaining the center of the ring (something he's been missing before). Khan seems to have been working on his ability to calmly blocks shots and come back with punches at the proper distance with small steps that make the difference. Being more efficient and flat-footed was always something I thought would be part of a natural progression, Freddie seemed to have him moving in that direction as well. If he picks up the pace he can probably get a stoppage around the 7th (as was stated above.) When he's on point his combinations are incredible.

Khan by TKO if Molina isn't a tough SOB.. Which I think he might be so then Khan by UD
If Khan starts failing with the things he's 'learn't' then him and Virgil need to let him do his own thing.. he could still win that way. Only been 3 month of practice. Ward has spent his whole career using, practising, changing and implementing the things Virgil has instilled in him. Don't expect Khan to suddenly be a ring Genius Khan wins and we all get to see what Molina can do and whether he is a good fighter who we might see alot of later on @ 140 Molina seems determined. Not once has he mentioned Khan's chin only the fighter mentality Khan has when he gets ruffled up. Molina knows what he has to do... that's for sure. Think he is going to try and work the body get some rough house tactics in then try to get the opportunity to land on Khan's head... Peterson tactics without the height and plodding walk forward 6'3" Virgil Hunter by KO Angel in the early wrapping stages before the fight. FOTY and KO of the year. |

Probably Khan TKO between rounds 5 and 7.
People make fun of Amir's chin, but you need power to crack it. And my guess is that Molina - who is a reasonable, unbeaten boxer with not much power - is chosen for that very reason. Not a big threat, but good enough to be put out there to be a comeback opponent for Khan. |
