      You're right. Molina has 13 fights above 135, while Khan has 8. But, clearly Khan has fought the better competition and he usually weighs-in heavier than Molina.

        By WOW he means a world of warcraft performance, basically saying he needs a wizard to turn him into an elite fighter.

          You're getting confused...it's all about fight night weights. Also, when a fighter is starting out in a weight class and fighting in 4/6 rounders, the fights are contracted at a few pounds over the limit..therefore "light weight" fights can be contracted at 138 or something. Molina is very much a lightweight.

          Top pedigree fighters groomed for the top often weigh-in at the limit from their first ever fight, eg. Hatton pretty much weighed in at 140, even for 4 rounders.

                And you base your opinion on what?

                  He just needs to win and be humble.
