barrera vs khan

[Howlin Mad Missy]

He isn't totally finished....but he will be after this fight.

I agree with you, but the people who are waiting to slag Kahn off afterwards need to make their minds up now. They either think he is shot or they don't.

Just like people needed to about Tszyu and just like they needed to form their own opinion of Jeff Lacy before the Calzaghe fight.

Well that's the thing. We can think all we like. The fact is we just don't know till the fight begins.

And people aren't waiting to slag off Khan

About 70% of the board seem to think they know

I am a realist. I know what they both potentially bring. Reading the Boxing Monthly articles all the things they brought up I'd already considered.

[Howlin Mad Missy]

To be fair - those situations were totally different. Tsyzu was P4P ranked no.3 and THE 140 champ. Lacy was an unbeaten IBF champ, supposed new superstar.

Barrera is CLEARLY past his best. If Khan wins a decision/late stoppage he'll - depending on how it goes of course - probably get plenty of credit from all but the real haters. If Khan blows Barrera away early, or Barrera quits after a few rounds, he wont get no credit. Obviously people will say Barerra was shot to bits.

So it depends on how the fight goes.

What a fucking waste of time this post was "it depends how the fight goes"

Well I'll come clean. Khan gets no credit from me whether he wins or loses. Colour me a hater. I don't care

You were covered by the "real hater" bit.

Actually i'll be looking forward to seeing you and Game kicking off should Barrera get it.

In the arena or on here? There aren't any Khan fans on here are there?

Look it went from me thinking he's crap & won't go very far/overhyped him to strong dislike the moment he signed to fight Barrera. That's the way it is

I read that. Good articles.Have you read the Steve Bunce bit where he's moaning because nobody likes his show?

[Howlin Mad Missy]

Not yet but he was moaning on the setanta JMM/Diaz show. Something seems to have gotten seriously under his skin

[Memphis]

Shall we make it a saddoboxing mission to drive Bunce off the rails?

I demand he mention us on live TV (before he has a breakdown).

I don't like his style. I appreciate that he has some knowledge and i'd still rather watch him then watch Johnny Nelson et al but his style annoys people. Setanta is kicking Skys arse on the Boxing front although Saturdays choice of european action from germany was a little bit strange.

what the hell was that all about

Sky had the olympians and rogan-skelton, itv had thaxton defending his european belt and tyson fury!!

Why the hell would setanta think any boxing fan in the uk let alone casual fan would miss both of those to watch 2 foreign guys i and nobody else has ever heard of fight for a belt nobody care about??

If their viewing figures broke 5000 i`ll eat my hat!!!!!!!!!

It was just strange. At least they made up for it with JMM-Diaz.

[JazMerkin]

They got the deal with Sauerland, & my understanding is they lost the Olympians in exchange for Warren giving them the Jennings fight. I have to say I did actually choose to watch the German fights first, then Thaxton, back to Sylvester then on to Sky for the Olympians & Rogan. I'll never complain about a channel putting on extra boxing & Sylvester can be pretty good to watch at times when he gets going.

On Buncey, I think he has gone a bit too over the top in his support for Brit fighters in the past couple of months, but there will always be people who complain about everything, even if his article in Boxing Monthly was a bit weird. Thought that how he was for the Diaz-JMM fight was a distinct improvement on how he been recently, & liked that he said he didnt no whether Khan should be anywhere near Barrera let alone Marquez or Diaz

[Manuel "Chubby" Medina]

Barrera's skills and experience will be the deciding factor in this fight.
Barrera TKO.

[:::PSL:::]

I hope MAB wins, but Khan is no walk in the cake.

[kevindx]

alot of talk of barrera not having a lightwieghts punch power but thats ok cos khan doesnt have a lightwieghts chin

[1-hit Wonder]

Im going for a Khan win, im a fan and i really hope to see the undoubted potential he's got fulfilled in this fight. MAB's had his day and i hope he retires soon.
