    Khan facing fight delay!



    FRANK WARREN admits Amir Khan's showdown with Marco Antonio Barrera may have to be pushed back a fortnight.

    Khan is due to collide with the fight legend at Manchester's MEN on March 14.

    But Barrera is currently recovering from a cut forehead after being headbutted by Freudis Rojas in a warm-up fight in Mexico.

    And while promoter Don King insists his man will be fit for action, Warren has his doubts.

    The SunSport columnist said: "I spoke to King and he told me that hopefully it will be OK.

    "At the moment, we just don't know. I am told it was a vertical gash but we will find out more soon.

    "I did not want this fight in Mexico to happen but I think there was pressure on him to go ahead with it.

    "If the worst comes to the worst, we will have to push it back a couple of weeks.

    "Obviously, with 15,000 tickets sold already, we don't want to do that."

            I honestly don't think this fight will ever happen.

              Thing is if that picture blew back in the wind and tapped amir on the chin
              we'd have another defeat on our hands again

              The fight is only gonna get delayed by what a few weeks..
              At least it aint off altogether
