Khan wants revenge for pal Naseem
By Tom Hopkinson
Amir Khan has promised to exact revenge on Marco Antonio Barrera - for Naseem Hamed and British fight fans.
Barrera, 35, effectively ended the Prince's career in Las Vegas eight years ago when he took a points decision for the vacant IBO featherweight crown.
Hamed did fight again, beating Manuel Calvo for the same vacant title a year later, but he had lost the aura of invincibility.
