For someone who apologised to GBP for dishonouring their company after losing to Pac I don't see that happening at all.

Neither do I.

I also don't think Khan will blast Barrera out early - which i think is his best shot.

So a Barrera quit job is the only way I see Khan winning... unless Barrera goes through the motions taking the piss.. but even then he might "accidentally" shatter chinny's jaw

Agreed

Even if Barrera was trying to deliberatley lose the fight hed still have trouble missing Khans glass jaw

Ono - I dont think Earl was Euro class the night he fought Khan . He was barley domestic class coming off that ko loss to Katsidis but even if we assume that earl was at his absolute peak that night it still doesnt suggest that khan can beat one of the greatest fighters ever

I have noticed Khans neck is looking bigger in interviews. He has obvioulsly been working on that like Evander did. However there is a massive gulf in experience here and class. When I see khan in the gym on the pads yelping like a girl he still seems like a novice to me. He is being thrown to the wolves

He'd also just beaten Romanov who is the very best europe has to offer. He wasn't that far off ko'ing Katsidis.

Kahn isn't fighting a prime Barrera though. His past achievements count for nothing in a fight if you are too slow to pull the trigger...which will be the problem.

. . . . But weve learnt not to write Barrera off. He was supposed to get smashed by Pac last time but the commentary thought he won . He was supposed to lose to Erik the 3rd time but he won and he was supposed to lose to Nas but we saw what happend

Basically if youre gonna write Barrera off, do it against the very best in the world but its silly to write him off against someone like Khan who isnt even top dog on the British scene.

Yeah i agree with all that, but he can't keep going forever....shame because i've never come across a fan that doesn't love him.

I guess we'll find out in just under a month.
