Khan, 22, is supposedly motivated after inspection stalemate Manny Pacquiao take WBO welterweight winner Miguel Cotto out in the 12th round previous Saturday night.
Khan will be creation his first protection of his WBA title, which he win with a irregular 12 round choice over Andriy Kotelnik on July 18th. Khan would favor to face a better known challenger than Salita. However, because Salita is his compulsory challenger, Khan’s hands are weary for this clash.
Khan is eager on looking superior in this clash and then move on next to some bigger names in the boxing world. Khan was particularly impressed with Pacquiao’s succeed over Cotto. Although Khan did achieve a huge deal in thrashing Kotelnik, a boxer with outstanding technical boxing skills, Khan has exposed a weakness when in front of punchers. Khan was compressed in the first round by Colombian slugger Breidis Prescott in September. Many people figure that Khan would try to avenge the beat and take on Prescott right away in a rematch.
However, since that occasion Khan has steered obvious of Prescott, as well as other huge punchers. Given that big success artist Marcos Maidana is the WBA interim light welterweight champ, Khan won’t have extended to wait for him to effort on getting to the level where Pacquiao is at, as he’ll have to make a decision whether he needs to face Maidana or not. However, Khan initial has to get by Salita on Dec 5th, and that could be a lot tougher clash than some people are expectant it to be.
Salita has superior power and if he can attach with one of his huge shots, he could expose Khan’s easily broken chin. Salita will have to be fine on his feet, though, because Khan has turn out to be much more of a mover in the precedent year since taking on Freddie Roach as his coach. Khan mix it up much less than he use to and is extra focused on using his jab and rapid combinations.
