Would be nice to see him turn back the clock.

I am 50/50 on this fight. Barrera is my all time favorite fighter. One of the all time great combinations of intelligence, skill, and heart. He seems well prepared for this fight. Also, i am not sold on Khan. He is talented and is physically the bigger man, but he doesn't fight smartly and can be easily sparked. So why do i think it's a 50/50 fight? You can never underestimate youth. Marco has had a long career, filled with many wars. If he comes into this fight passive, he could be in trouble. But if he comes into the fight sharp, i think he has too much smarts and craftiness for the younger fighter. I am hoping older legend has another great performance in him.

Barrera looks in good shape. I cannot wait for this fight, Barrera has only been beaten convincingly in recent years by Pac IMO. He is past his best, but he is facing a fighter who is hardly pound for pound material. I'm sure Khan will start fast, but once Barrera begins to close down the ring....that's where I hope it will start to get interesting.

Agreed Miles,

The height (and I imagine reach) difference is going to be a huge advantage for Khan if he can utilise it.

I see this fight as Khan's for the taking if he fight's smart. He has all of the advantages barring experience. He just needs to swallow his pride if need be and box, box, box. Not be drawn in to a war.

If Barrera manages to close the gap effectively he wins.

I see this Khan by K.O. but hope it goes the distance because Barrera is an absolute legend and one of the greatest fighters ever.
