Khan admits fight against Molina will decide if he will ever face Mayweather ? Boxing News
British-Pakistani fighter Amir Khan has admitted that his upcoming December 15 showdown against Carlos Molina will decide if he will ever get the chance to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr. or Manny Pacquiao. Khan, who has always been keen on facing Mayweather, the current WBC welterweight titlist, knows his fight against Molina will decide his future in boxing.
?There?s always pressure when I fight but I definitely have to win this because if I lose, I?m done,? said Khan.
Khan is coming off two consecutive losses. He lost to American fighter Lamont Peterson last year in December to give away his IBF and WBA unified titles, and then he lost to American unbeaten fighter Danny ?Swift? Garcia on July 14 this year.
?This is a fight I need to win, 100 per cent. If I don?t win it I?m done. It?s that simple. The big super-fights I?ve always dreamed about won?t be there if I lose this. Pacquiao, Mayweather -- forget it,? added the former champion who has always been talking about a fight against Mayweather.
Khan has gone through a complete camp change in order to prepare for his fight against Molina. He fired trainer Freddie Roach and hired Virgil Hunter to work with. Recently, in an interview, Khan revealed that his training camp is going good. According to the Briton, Hunter has taught him quite a few things that Roach never could.
For now, Khan is working hard to ensure he wins against Molina. Since Molina is not a hard puncher, Khan?s chances of winning the fight are good enough. As Virgil Hunter previously said, Khan needs to stay away from hard hitters if he wants to maintain his career. It is a known fact now that Khan cannot take punches, as he has a weak chin.
A win against Molina would mean future super-fights for Khan, whereas a loss would mean he would have to walk away from the sport. The Briton cannot have a third consecutive defeat in his career, especially not by fighters like Molina. If he loses, he would be a complete write-off.
