Fight Preview: Khan v Molina

This Saturday Night at the L.A. Sports Arena in Los Angeles, California, Amir Khan returns to action to face off against Carlos Molina in a Junior Welterweight Bout.  Of course Khan is coming off 2 difficult losses to Lamont Peterson & Danny Garcia, as he hope to get back to his winning ways against Carlos Molina.  Molina is a perfect 17-0 in his first five years as a professional and looks to keep Khan from rebounding to victory at his expense.  Khan will fight Molina under the watchful eye of his new trainer, Virgil Hunter, and hopes to come in to the fight with a new sense of beginning to strive to get back to the top of his division.  Khan's defense and fight tactics were in question under former trainer Freddie Roach, it will be interesting how Hunter imposes his training will on Khan to prepare him for his bout versus Carlos Molina.  Molina on the other hand must test that chin of Khan and apply pressure by maybe fighting in the inside, smothering Khan and keeping Khan's hand speed to a minimum.  Molina won't be no pushover against Amir Khan as he expects to be victorious and continue his unbeaten streak.  Khan v Molina will air live on Showtime at 7:30 PM PST.

Also in action will be 'EL Perro' Angulo on his quest to return to the top of the Welterweight division when he squares off against fellow Mexican, Jorge Silva.  Angulo too is trained by Virgil Hunter, and is looking for some new tutorship on his climb back to the top.
Leo Santa Cruz will open up things at the L.A. Sports Arena as he will face Alberto Guevara in a bout that will be showcased on national network televison, CBS.  Santa Cruz looks to showcase his talents and exquisite boxing skills to a broader audience live on national tv.  Santa Cruz v Guevara will air on CBS at 1:30 PM PST.


Noez Predictions:
Amir Khan Wins by Decision (Unanimous)
Alfredo Angulo wins by TKO (3rd Round)
Leo Santa Cruz Wins TKO (7th Rd)
