Kindelan didn't have the same preparation for the second fight as he did for the Olympics, he didn't look as sharp, or as fit, Khan on the other hand was already training full time getting ready to turn pro, it would have been a lot more interesting if the Kinderlan that fought Khan in the Olympics fought that fight after Khan had obviously improved.

Also all the traveling would have taken a bit out of him, he was traveling around all over the place, not to mention the initial trip over. There wasn't the same incentive for him to win the fight either. Whereas Khan went in with something to prove.
