    Kinda disagree on the stoppage he was way behind but he was nowhere near done

    i dont think he was gonna catch Khan cold but i think they should have let the kid finish what he started

    All credit to Molina,and just a pity he doesnt carry a bit more power.Ideal comeback for Khan but apart from keeping the distance by poking out the left i dont see many changes but as said hes not been with Hill long.He wants to use his ears more but it doesnt help when you have porridge for brains.Where does he go from here??How many non punchers out there are big fights?

    And some people thought Khan/Molina would be a better watch than Donaire/Arce...

    Khan cannot hang with Mayweather. He does not have the discipline or boxing IQ as some have said to go with Floyd. He has the speed, but not the IQ.

    Perfect stoppage, Molina had no hope.

    Khan got better as the fight went on, defensive improved as his confidence grew. Remains humble after the bell, good signs.

    Khan boxed to a better pace than he has done in the past, didn't get as over-eager, controlled the fight better with his jab.

    Still made some of the same mistakes that have got him tagged and hurt in the past though, I really think if he'd been in there with a puncher he'd have been hurt again tonight (Khan) Hunter has clearly made certain improvements to Khan but I still think he needs a few more tune ups, I'd like to see a lot more improvements before I'm convinced.

    exact fight he needed. He needs another tuneup. That is why Chavez was so great, he always fought tuneups to keep sharp and learn the game.

    Neither was a great watch.

    In fact, with very few exceptions (Angulo vs. Silva, Terrazas vs. Ruiz) today kind of sucked for boxing.

    Groves vs. Johnson was just sad. Both the HBO and Showtime main events were predictably non-competitive mismatches.

    By saying Molina is not even world ranked and out of his depth? Stop with the BS mate.

    They were both mediocre.

    Khan has work

    needs to body punch more, he landed a lot but Molina was still bouncing on his toes and active, he got away with it tonite but in the future he needs a body attack

    he is still open to be caught by counters, he did get caught by a few but Molina didnt have the necessary tools

    need to see him in with a guy better equipped to deal with the speed and size of Khan
