Vote who you think will win and one word or sentence why.
Barrera will win (Naz Hamed style).
"Like A Virgin 2" in the making.
I am rooting for MAB he is a living legend but i think Kahn has caught him at the right time and at the correct weight.
i still can't decide.........:-\
MAB early KO or wide points;D
MAB for early KO. I can see Mab just looking for one punch to end it straight from the off.
Barrera.
I don't like Roach, he talks too much but he is right about one thing, Khan makes one mistake and it's over.
I think Khan's speed & height win it for him
Barrera because Khans got no chin and Barrera can withstand Khans attacks meaning hes guna get enough shots in to put him down.
Khan late tko.Barerra is old and at a new weight,Khan's speed will be the factor.
Barrera to start slow and turn it up and become stalker.
I'm gonna go with Kahn, vastly superior speed, power and size, although i love barrera..........
Barrera - because khan is a big poopoo head

Thought all you Brits would have Khan as your hero?? Guess you guys don't like overinflated fighters. Unless Khan has reinvented himself, we should see Barrera pick him apart. My logic:
Barrera gave JMM a really tough time, and could have won that fight (sorry-ass ref) => JMM would own Khan for free.
Barrera UD ~117-110
MAB by TKO.
On another thread Ono had Barrera getting stopped on his feet, maybe prematurely, sadly I kind of think that will happen. Khan's got the advantage of fast hands, get somebody hurt a bit, then just open up with rapid fire combos and you can get a quicker stoppage than usual.
If MAB lands any sort of big punch on Khan , he will knock him out , the fact is Khan has a glass jaw , good talent but he cant take any sort of punch in top class fighting.
MAB too good too smart too tough.
Alot of people are saying that . I cant see it personally but I know what they mean if its a stupid refQuote:

Khan points, remember MAB retired.
i think khan's speed and reach will befuddle barrera in the early rounds but barrera will catch khan sooner or later and turns the fight in his favor going into the late rounds. i see a possible ko/tko win for mab in the 2nd half of the fight.
Barrera TKO. Hurts him gets him on ropes and beat up till stoppage.
I go with MAB, sure he's old and possibly shot but he's fighting Amir Kahn not someone dangerous! MAB has only been stopped 1 time and that was vs one hell of a special fighter.....Kahn will get schooled
Well i I'm going with MAB , just for his experience , stronger , courage and determination , but also MAB have to take care with Khan with his faster exchange punches and is more younger too , i hope MAB doesn't be out of Stamina...............
MAB as khan has underestimated the mexican warrior;D
I hope barrera, But i have a feeling kahn will run and use his speed and win by decision.
you know i think khan should of stayed away from MAB cos even if he beats him then my feeling is even more people will hate him:confused:
I dont like either one of them but tell you truth like Khan to win just because no one thinks he can and been a year of upsets.
how can u not like MAB?
MAB by KO.
ah come on now. It's just jealousy. He does things many dream of doing but don't have the cojones for. You insult his country, he smacks you in the mouth, you call him a fag, he smacks you in the mouth, he rid the world of Naseem Hamed. He should be knighted;DQuote:

I'm sure he has a very good gameplan for Khan against Barerra. But Roach is right if Khan makes one mistake then its over. Khan could fight a perfect fight for 6 rounds and then get overtaken by Barerra late.
This is tough for me to pick, because all ive seen of Khan was him getting knocked out and his comeback fight and on the Calzaghe vs Manfredo undercard so I don't know enough about him other then he has speed some power and a questionable chin. I know a lot more about Barerra so I'd pick him but he didn't look too good against Pacquiao and he could be at JUST the right point in his career for Khan to take him.
I'll take the young lion to beat the old lion in this fight. Khan MD
Nicely put. This site is full of 'eloquent artistes'. However, I'm afraid AK is gonna tuck MAB up in bed and read him a story... Respect to MAB but Khan's gonna be spewing lightnin' from his gloves come Saturday :lickish:Quote:

These old guys are letting b-hop and glen johnson give them a false since of security and i wonder how much barerra really has in him...for khan hated as the guy is, the hype isn't his own fault should he have said "hell no i don't want publicity or people to think i'm good, thanks but no thanks i'll take that friday night fight spot instead"...i also belive one ko doesn't ruin a guy or make him crap, any fighter is only inches away from getting decked the same way, i think khan is so so just like he should be at this stage and a loss may help bring the guy back to reality a bit since he's be steered otherwise before prescott, to many unknowns when you rush a guy's career....it's a toss up with khan having the edge due to his youth and new focus.

Perhaps you'd prefer a more serious tone? I'll fetch me pipe and slippers.
There are so many variables in this fight we just don't know. It could be very tight it could be a hideous mis-match for either fighter. Not too long till we find out eh?
Barrera will roll back the years and sport a mullet for this one. Just you people wait!!! :D
Nah, I'm just excited about it all....
Barrera!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
death by mullet? Margarito's revenge!:oQuote:
