    Don't really matter. JMM-Diaz winner is still the champ at 135.

      On top of that, I think it might be fixed anyway.
      I agreed with the rest of your post, but Warren has never been suspected of fixing fights, whereas King has. If King could fix it, he'd fix it in Barrera's favour. So I don't buy that it's being fixed in Khan's favour in the sense of the judges being bought. And I believe Barrera has too much pride to be bought. He wants a title at a fourth weight.

      Of course, making this fight into a title fight would be a fix in itself, but that's a different sort of fix. I'm not sure how Warren and King manage to influence the alphabet bodies, but they certainly do influence them, and Warren is very tight with the WBO.

      I'm still hoping that the WBO might see sense though and make Marquez-Diaz their title fight, because they must know they'd be a laughing stock if they gave it to Barrera-Khan.

        Thiswhole thing is becoming more su****ious by the day, im realy begining to beleive Warren is trying to fix this whole thing for Khan to get his easy route to a world title and so he dont blow his total undeserved big pay per view contract with Sky, but its all going to back fire coz Barrera aint gona lose like he expects, he probably paid his Barreras last opponent to not show up n got some bum in there head butt him, Don King is so crooked there probably in it together. tptal fix what boxing needs is a UFC that takes all these belt out of the equation and gets back down to what this should be about which is good honest fighting

            I'm sure the winner of Barrera-Khan will be more than happy to face the winner of JMM-JD. So, why not have Barrera-Khan be a title fight ?

                no you should support MAB cos this is so clearly a fix in Khans favour, Brrera been ranked number 1 is all part of the fix, Warren owns the WBO, he has em all chained up wi gimp masks on

                  Wait, you're mad at Barrera because he's ranked #1 by the WBO? Last time I checked, fighters don't rank themselves.

                  But I think you're right... Barrera probably doesn't respect you after saying something like that.

                    If Khan wins, he'll be protected no doubt.

                      War Khan...My man will become champion. He may not deserve it, but I know plenty of other champions who have not deserved it too.

                      Barrera would be a great win for Khan.
