Kahn v Barrera???

[JT Rock]

Would you suggest that Khan is anywhere nearly as good as Manny though? Or remotely as good as JMM? Or that Barrera could be stopped in 1 by a complete nobody as Khan himself was?

On that note your pick is not entirely logical. No offence, JT, but Barrera beats Khan because Khan is simply not good enough.

Were talking about a fighter that is quick and fast and good power.. Barrera is way past his best at this point... If were talking about the Barrera of a few years ago, I give Kahn no chance... Khan has tremendous upside I mean Juarez is nothing special and fought to arguably a draw against Marco almost 3 years ago.

I just think its going to be a case of youth and athleticism lasting over age and deterioation

Barrera won the first fight by enough in my reckoning and then boxed his ass off in the rematch. The second fight was a fight won with a jab because he wanted to show it was all he needed! Khan certainly doesnt have the chin of Juarez. And beyond that you have a fight in which Barrera gave Marquez a serious run for his money and then gave a lame showing against the best fighter in the world. And suddenly Amir kahn is going to cause an upset?

You have your opinion, but I will go against it in this case. I think Barrera is stil too good for Khan.

Barrera is done and for the taking.. He is shopworn and cant compete at A level anymore... Unless he sparks Kahn out early, he will be repeatedly beat to the punch by a much faster strong young man with plenty of vigor..

Kahn has a great corner now and PFP#1 to work with and learn from, consequently the same guy who humiliated and handed Barrera his ass once and then snoozed his way to beating an uninterested and flat Marco a second time.. I love barrera and he is an alltime great, who has given us so much over the years.. But if there is one thing Roy Jones, Evander Holyfield, James Toney taught me is that when your done your done and no fighter can escape that not Casamayor, not Castillo, not Morales, not Tarver, Not Delahoya.. Mosely is about to find it out soon too

Hopkins is the extreme rare exception and thats because he isint shop worn
