    Yeah, it's actually one of the better crossroad fights I've been excited about in a very long time. Last time I actually cared about this kind of fight in a major way was Chavez/De La Hoya I.

        After that cut last Saturday I fear that it may have the same ending as DLH-JCC I. Khan is a sharp puncher and you can expect him to make the cut a target.

          That cut does worry me, but I don't know how big the cut will factor in. I just don't get the feeling that it will.

          And yes, I'd agree it's TOTALLY over if he loses a fair fight.

            Brilliant poll, this is really interesting and sheds much light on the subject of MAB's return to the limelight, let's look at these results and analyze them carefully, maybe construct a graph and we can gauge how well MAB is going to perform in the fight against Khan.

                Its really hard to tell what that means.
                At best, Id say he can KO Amir Khan, and win a vacant ABC belt against a lesser known contender.
                Cant see him doing too much after that, though, he doesnt have that much gas left in the tank.

                    im hoping barrera loses this one..him losing to khan would be plain funny..
                    cause theres no excuse for losing this one..based on his last fight barrera sure as hell didnt look like oscar's recent..and khan cant take a single ****en punch that poor kid..Im hoping khan somehow out points him cause i dont like barrera antics and i dont like how he's fightin nobodies in ****en china and a prospect with only 20 fights who just K.O.'d and badly..

                      I don't know what the **** Barrera is thinkin, Khan is young and pretty fast and Barrera hasn't shown any sign that he can deal with hand speed anymore. lol Barrera has some nerve takin this fight though, but if he can move backwards and box effectively I think that will be his best chance. He knows how to move in the ring and get punches off, so I think his comeback will be a 4 or 5.
