    Two things that would make Khan a better fightier is 1) Defend against punches, and 2) Slow down on offense. He seems to be more restrained. This is good for him.

    I wouldn't go that far. He has to prove more than beating Molina.. Molina is a good tuneup, but not a world class fighter.

    When Khan beat Salita who I consider to be one of the best pound for pound fighters ever, I knew he was special.

    Khan may very well win tonight, but he's not going anywhere.

    Round 2

    Molina is putting in some body shots up close, but Khan is circling wide and jabbing him in the head. Long body shots by Khan. Quick combos by Khan on the outside. Double hook by Khan. Right hand by Molina freezes him in his tracks! Khan jabs at him. Molina pressures. Slapping hooks up top by Khan. Left hook by Molina. Khan throws a sharp 1-2. Molina walks in and lands a big overhand right to the jaw while dropping his head over to the left, JMM-esque. It doesn't put Khan to sleep, though. It barely stuns him.

    10-9 Khan but much better for Molina.

    20-18 Khan

    Amir is looking good, but he still needs a little more work. needs to work the body more

    2. Khan composed and throwing short combos, repositioning, and opening up some more.
    As Paulie notes, "Khan is taking a walk". Molina lands some hooks. Easy round to score,
    but if Molina can find more ways to land left hook could get interesting.
    10-9 Khan, 20-18 Khan

    Is Khan getting wobbled? ESPN boxing on Twitter says he was.

    Khan looking as fragile as ever,you would think he would just slow it down a bit.
