Why do i get the feeling that if Khan was the one cut and wanted a rematch people would say he didn't deserve it and that he doesn't have the mentality of a champion and real champions persevere through cuts and hard times and that if he can't then he'll never be world class material and that even without the cut he would have lost to Barerra. But Barerra gets a free pass because A) he is Barerra and b) people don't want to accept that he would have lost to Khan clean without the cut. If you want to see De La Hoya vs CHavez II then thats fine, but i'd rather Barerra for his career if he has a loss to someone like Khan I'd rather it be in a situation like this rather then him losing one sidedly or stopped late. But if they rematch thats what you'll get, Barerra will lose and will lose in a worse fashion. And I love Barerra, but even I'm not blind to the fact that he couldn't do anything to Khan besides land one or two hard shots that Khan recovered from when hit with them flush.
Everyone was wondering what would happen when Barerra hit Khan on the chin. It happened. And Khan didn't panic, didn't get reckless or anything, he held or kept his composure and came back into the fight, he even withstood when Barerra was trying to go for broke and knock him out. So let me make something clear, if there is a rematch Barerra isn't gonna outbox him, his only chance is to knock him out and Khan seemed to have a good gameplan for whenever Barerra tried. If there is a rematch Khan would win in a more one sided fashion and you'll have people still not giving Khan credit instead saying that Barerra should have retired after the first fight
