Amir Khan has admitted that his fight with Carlos Molina is "make or break" for him in terms of his career.
The 26-year-old has been slipping off the radar after losing his last two fights and is due to go into the ring with Molina in California on Saturday.
"I know it is a make or break fight for me, that's why I'm taking it so seriously," said Khan. "Hopefully everything will come together on Saturday and we are going to win this fight and finish the year off strong. That will put us in a good position come next year."
Meanwhile, the Bolton-born boxer has revealed that new trainer Virgil Hunter has improved his style ahead of the crucial bout.
