khan (27-3 19 KOs) defeated lightweight carlos molina (17-1 7 KOs) in an attempt to save his career after back to back loses. khan dominated the fight with a 10th round tko but khan was caught a few times.
in the build up of this fight, khan said he learnt a lot about defense and had become a more mature boxer. to me, khan certainly has talent but he did not show any significant changes and actually looked the same. he was still vulnerable to big counters after he unleashes his own fast combinations. molina lacks the power at lightweight to knock people out but was somehow managed to rock khan at times.
khan now has all the confidence in the world after he beat up a light weight half his size. he even went to the extent of calling out danny garcia for a rematch and said he would knock him out. the problem with khan is his arrogance has dug himself into a deep hole. after he lost to peterson, he was constantly talking about a fight with mayweather. when he lost to garcia, he still maintained that he was one of the best fighters in the world. instead of admitting he was wrong, he dumped roach who helped him win 2 world titles and refused to accept any of the blame.
the rightful opponent for garcia is lucas mattysse since he is the mandatory challenger for his WBC belt. i am hoping garcia is man enough to give matthysse his shot. as for khan, he should shut the hell up and just walk the walk.
