      Same feelings as me. I've grew up with this kid.

        None of my regular boxing contacts in the Uk are interested in this fight other than to complain he yet again has avoided the top 3 UK LW fighters to fight an old Super Bantumweight.

        No matter how good Barrera is, he's still an Old Super Bantumweight.

        Khan is Massive for a Lightweight and yet seems to be scared to fight anyone but people from divisions below him, Maybe it's because Frank Warren knows he has a glass chin just like the rest of us.

        The bbc Boxing page doesn't even mention the fight.

        To be fair, Thaxton would get demolished by Khan. He only has a 45% ko rate, and has fought worse opposisition than ***an. Murray is a one dimentional piece of overrated rubbish. Khan is ther best British lightweight. Barrera is better than anybody on the British lightweight scene.

        No offence, just me and 4 triple jd and cokes opinion/

          So where does that leave Pac and Marquez? Pac beat him convincingly in the rematch but all the rounds were competitive. Marquez only beat him narrowly. Do you think they're both there for the taking as well?

          Of course Barrera is not the fighter he once was, but to pretend he's completely shot is delusional, IMO.

                if some ten thousand brits trooped to the u.s to watch hatton, the more the brits would watch it because fight is in their own backyard. the brits are just crazy about hatton and khan.

                    If Khan follows the fight plan of trainer Roach, he's got a chance to beat Barrera. JAT
