        I was looking a Juan Diaz in the early rounds against Marquez, and that guy beats Khan 365 times if he fights him everyday, because of the pressure and handspeed that is surprisingly fast.

        Barrera at this point is a counter-puncher, that suits Khan. He'll just fire of jabs at range, get out of there and rack up points. He's too big for him.
        Khan is as ready as he will ever be for a title shot. The speed, skills, and power are there, he just needs to improve his defence. If he can get past Barrera without taking any huge shots, then he is ready. However it will still be difficult for him to even get a title shot. Marquez has 3 of the 4 belts, and Khan shouldn't go anywhere near him.

          Not unless he shows us his defence is improved IMO.

          Otherwise a guy like Prescott would just **** him out again, and Khan is a much much better fighter than Prescott.

          More time, with Freddy and Pac and that gym. Will make him battle-hardened. I think he should take a bit of a step back if he does Barrera, and hammer John Murray. And be in fights were he is favourite for a couple more fights, but against guys who will fight him.

          John Murray would be like Juan Diaz lite.

            Im not sure which one to pick to be honest...

            Khan could win it if Barrera is that far gone.
            It all depends on how Marco is..

              Don't you think he'll just be too small, gully.

              Smaller and slower, the ****tiest combination.

                I will. I don't know how to bet (or is just based on the honour system) and I don't quite have 4K yet. But I will soon enough I am guessing....I can get a lot of posting in during my work week.

                  Could be mate..
                  Barrera could get Blitzed straight away from a fast start

                  I just dont know..
                  Amir cant take a shot well at all..

                  Im gonna wait till nearer fight time to decide a winner
                  and then maybe place some bets...

                      This fight is 50-50 for me. I cannot pick a winner at all, and normally I'm pretty good at it.

                      Khan is banking on Barrera being past his best, too old, or possibly shot. Barrera is banking on Khan's chin being weak and Khan being lesser experienced.

                      Khan: Faster, younger, bigger, but less experienced.
                      Barrera: More skilled, more experienced, but old and been through plenty of wars. Possibly shot, but more likely just too slow and too small.

                      Barrera hasn't shown much in his last two fights. Khan was KO'd in 54 seconds just two fights ago.

                      This is impossible to predict. Picking either one would be a lucky guess.
