Old Vs New;D
Ok I really WANT Barrera to win !
I just think he's a ring legend in my eyes and i h8 to see fights where the old destroyed by the new
Barrera has always been om my fav fighters long list lol
think gotta be barrera for me, legend! khan has pissed me off with his greed with all this PPvV bollocks!
Khan, he's the English bloke so I back him. I like Barrera as much as the next man/Missy but that wont stop me wanting Amir to beat him.
I like Khan but can't cheer for him over Barrera.. especially not in this situation.
Don't mind if Khan wins though, as long as it's on points. Don't want to see a little fat old Barrera taking a beating.
This fight wont even happen though*
*Bear in mind i'm naturally a pessimistic cunt.
Its got to be Barrera for me. He's always been one of my top fighters, and though Im not sold on this comeback, I have to back him.
He should stop Khan if he is 70% of what he was a couple of years ago.
Brave fight for Khan to take on. He has so many critics and he's a nice kid so I hope he pulls of a shock and beats Barrera.
Barrera is one of my Favourites ever but he is a shell of the beast he was @ 27years old, I think Khans to big, to fast and too much power for Barrera at this late stage of his career. I hope I am wrong as I would love to see Khan loose again but I can't see it, I see a Khan TKO unfortunatly.
If Amir Khan wins this will not be a shocker. How? This is truly old vs young. And slower vs faster and smaller vs bigger and shorter vs taller and etc. Khan really picked a big name and as longshot as he could get. He'll have little problem. Barrera has too many miles on him and Khan knows this. This is a great business move. Khan is talented but he gets no respect for winning this fight. The lower the weight the bigger old age makes a play on being a has been.
Strange one this for me as i've slated Khan's chin for years.
surprisinly i would love to see Khan win and progress, as we need exciting young guys coming through for the future of the sport.
BUT i still think Barrera will KO him in the first round.
Wanting and picking are two different things ;)

There are risks for both of them. But my feeling is a fit and most importantly - motivated - Barrera has enough skill to beat Khan. More than any question of being past his best it I think motivation is the key.
Losing hard fights with Morales, Pac and JMM are one thing. Losing to Khan and I'd feel like killing myself:(
This is the problem with Khan. He's starring in shit PPVs and is now matched against a past his best little legend.Quote:

There's GENUINE competitive fights for him in this country. I love this Barrera fight (if it happens) but it's all too gimmicky.

Match made in heaven (or a certain layer of hell)
I pick Amir to win this one i think marco is defo a spent force and Amir despite the 1minute loss is a terrific fighter. Amir wins this fight boxing on the outside, hit and move, marco never had the legs.
Barrera. It's not that I don't like Khan I just hate Warren!
