    Barrera-Khan is a crossroads fight?

    I think it is. To me if Khan wins this fight somehow he will be a star. I think this win will put the Prescott fight behind him and also give him confidence that he could win a rematch. But if Khan loses, imo he will be the next Audley Harrison, a bust. His career in my eyes would be over.

    For Barrera, i think if he wins, he will be put right back into the rotation for a mega lightweight fight with the best in the division, basically one last payday and title shot for him.

      Indeed.

      Khan has a lot more to lose than Barrera, and is a silly risk imo

        Even if MAB wins, what chance would he have against Nate, JMM, or Diaz at this point? He's got nothin to lose. It's a do or die fight for Khna tho. Despite MAB's age, his name brings some serious shine. But if he loses, especially by KO again, he's into journeyman status before he's fully into his prime.

          there has to be an angle that warren has seen in barrera, they wouldnt be taking this fight if they thought khan was going to lose, because if he loses then hes cooked. to me barrera is too old and effectively 9 or 10 years past his prime. how much does he really have left, i believe he has left a lot of himself in the ring
