      Khans got a good chance, but iv seen vids of Barrera training for this fight, and he looks in great shape and really up for it. Hes definitely gonna give Khan some trouble and with Khans chin as it is, it could be over quite quick. Hope it'll be a good fight though

        Well he said he was in the high altitude in Mexico City for 15 days, he didn't say he was training for ONLY 15 days.

        Some fighters finish out their camps in high altitude to help thier stamina. I think that's more of what he meant.

        I love Barrera, he has nothing to prove but he's too old at this stage of his career. I think Kahn wins this one.

          There is no way in hell Barrera only trained for 15days. This is a consummate professional who knows what it takes to be at his best...unless the wars have gotten to his brain early, I'd say he trained just like he always has.

          BTW, he said he trained for 15days in altitude...doesn't mean he only trained for 15 days in total.

                He was asked "How long have you been in camp?".

                to which he replied "15 days at altitude in Mexico."(Not exact quote, I may add).

                  Barrera looked severely out of shape in his last fight but let's be honest: If he has anything left at all he can diet on buffalo wings and fries and still get this clown outtathere in about 3 rounds.

                    A great clip thanks for putting it up. I wonder if there is a difference between what he says he did and what actually happened. What I mean is, did he actually train for 15 days or does he want Khan to think that? Is he trying to lure Khan into something?
                    Actually, this is a good point. Remember before the Hamed fight? Marco said his game plan was to attack, attack, attack. We all saw what happened. Marco counter-punch all night and used Hamed's aggression against him.

                    It's not impossible that Barrera is trying to make Khan think he's not done enough to win, it gives Khan a false sense of security. On the other hand, it makes it even more difficult for us to predict a winner.

                      Well he said, "How is camp going?" I doubt Barerra has been training for only 15 days and his english isn't the best so maybe he didn't fully understand the question.

                      Barrera is a consumate pro, he knows what time it is. He was going to be a lawyer before he decided on boxing. He's a smart dude, he knows what's up.
