Khan had a deal with SKY to be on PPV's in the UK. That's why he's fighting Barrera.

Warren is smart, This reminds me of the Hatton/Tsyzu scenario. I think that's a discredit to Hatton actually and GreatJoe, everything I've seen of Barrera as of late points to him being shot a la Ali - Holmes, Louis - Marciano But hey, I hope you're right and he's not. It'll be a better fight and he would probably KTFO of Khan

Even though Barrera has been in wars he still have the necessary experience to KO Khan, We all know Khan is chinny and you dont lose your power even when you're shot, So if Barrera lands on Khan which i think is possible then khan would surely go down.

They lost me when they billed the fight as "The Wrath of Khan" Really? That's brilliant!

I'm totally in two minds about Barrera (that's why I took my bet off the fight), but for those last two bouts I got the feeling he was just trying to get some rounds under his belt. Very hard to gauge him by those fights. Obviously he is past his best, there's no question, but I would like to see some sparring or just slamming a heavy bag to get a feel for how he's currently doing in training. Is there no footage of recent training? Go to 30 seconds in. That's all we have for now.

Barrera is shot now. He wasn't for Marquez or even for Pacquiao again, but he's shot now. He's looked terrible in his return. But look who he's been fighting. Pure bums. Barrera doesn't need to prove himself now, so why would he train his ass off to blow-out bums, prospects need to do it, Barrera doesn't. Just take the fights unfit, you will still beat a guy 1-6 or whatever. He will train for Khan, or so we are lead to believe.

If amir khan can start of fast and get in there he can Blitz Barrera at this stage A dragged out fight Amir is gonna get caught and his wrath fuks off in a taxi back to bolton..

Yep, Its on PPV in America aswell.

will the fight be televised in america? I cant see why not.. Surely it will get some coverage.. Deffo if we get another classic Amir Khan getting sparked all over the place KO

i fully agree with this post apart from the "Barrera isn't as shot as people on here think" part He's no where near the same, but he's not shot. Shot = Ali-Holmes. Louis-Marciano. But then again, we don't know how he's training, how he is mentally. Noone really knows. Guess we will find out on the night.

Thats what i read SG... Still trying to come to terms with it

Yep and he lasted 54 seconds in the first one lol. The second went with De La Hoya-Pacquiao, thats how they made that a PPV. The next one they needed a name to make it PPV worthy, In came Barrera. This is a gamble for the Khan people, it's all or nothing. Warren now has his new prospects (olympians), he knows Khan doesn't have much of a chin so he's taking a gamble, he's trying to "burn out" and if Khan wins, great he's up there again, if he loses, well "what can I do with a guy with no chin". If it wern't for that PPV contract, believe me, Khan WOULDN'T be fighting Barrera. But he HAS to fight a name. Barrera isn't as shot as people on here think, Just thought i'd let you guys know why Warren "mysteriously" had Barrera as Khan's next fight. He HAD to. i fully agree with this post apart from the "Barrera isn't as shot as people on here think" part They lost me when they billed the fight as "The Wrath of Khan" lmao, have they really done that??????
