Khan: 139 lbs.
Molina: 139 lbs.
Prediction: The reason Amir Khan is fighting a lightweight is to ensure his chin hopefully faces no serious problems while working on the training methods he’s experienced with new trainer Virgil Hunter. Molina is a solid fighter, but even if Khan’s his usual reckless self, the likelihood that Molina has the power to hurt Khan is minimal with just 7 KOs in. Expect Khan’s speed to make Molina gunshy early on and have this one wrapped up by the fifth round.
