    Khan vs Barrera and Martinez vs Cook. Who wins?

    Amir Khan is going for a make or beak fight. If he loses to Barrera his image and his career is in jeaopardy.And if he wins he will put himself for a title shot, but he wont get a lot of credit for beating Barrera. People will say barrera is old and shot and this and that, you guys know the drill.
    I think Khan will out box barrera who didnt looked bad vs Pacquaio before retiring, but he is coming up in weight and he will be the smaller,slower older fighter. I think Khans youth and speed will be mpre than enough to beat Barrera.

    In the cook vs Martinez we are going to see fireworks. Nicky Cook is a pretty good fighter himself, and Martinez is a very tough exciting brawler with great power and decent boxing skills. Martinez is a bit faster than Cook also. I think we are going to have a great fight while it lasts. I think Martinez with his brawling style and good power will KO Cook in 8.

    This will be a great boxing Card. I hope HBO pick this card !!!!!!!!

    The Khan-Barrera fight depends on how much Barrera has left.

    Cook vs Martinez should be an interesting clash of styles, Martinez always provides fireworks but he does have defensive liabilities and Cook is a good counterpuncher, I'll go with Cook by decision but I'm not really confident about the pick.

      I think Khan have a decent chance of beating the Barrera that lost to Pacquaio but if Barrera comes a bit better than that hell beat Khan with ease, if not he is in trouble.

      About Martinez vs Cook, Martinez have defensive liabilities, but he make it up with his offense and good chin. I think cook doesnt work enough and doesnt have the KO punching power to trouble Martinez. But, Martinez for sure needs to improve his defense!!!!!!!!!!!!

        The Barrera that lost to Pacquiao in their second fight probably would have beaten Khan as well, if Barrera has even 50% left he knocks Khan out early.

        Martinez can win the fight, I just think stylewise it's not the best fight for Martinez, Cook is good at fighting off his back foot, I think it'll be a good fight with some really good exchanges of body shots, they're both good body punchers.

            Khan has potential but he's a raw talent right now and that chin is very, very fragile, Barrera isn't the biggest puncher but he's a big enough puncher to knock Khan out considering Khan got knocked down and badly hurt by a relatively light punching super featherweight in Willie Limond.
