    I don't know if people really dislike Khan that much or what but I am in the very small minority and think he will win convincingly. Barerra's style isn't built for a speedy athletic talent like Khan. Poison Jones did it twice even stopping him and Pac stopped Barerra. Barerra was in his prime then. Khan is not as bad as people lead it to be. Actually, he is quite talented. Maybe not to the point where his hype is/was but he will be the younger, taller, quicker, more athletic, bigger, and stronger fighter in that ring. Barerra's days maybe over and he is going to have to prove otherwise with all those disadvantages. I actually think Khan is taking on a great named fighter with not much left. Like Terry Norris vs. Sugar Ray. Khan knows this is a great move in his favor. I think it will take a knockout to spoil Khan's con job on this fight. I'd like him to take on up and comers in junior welterweight not older guys moving up.

    I think 140 will be his division in the future. 135 is too stacked and he's a big lightweight. Apart from Pac-Hatton, there isn't anyone for him to fear at 140 in the forseable future....yes i still think he will be a world champion.

    The only way khan has a chance of winning is to get on his bike for 12 rounds which im not sure he will be able to do against a fighter as a gd as barrera and he i dont think hell knock him out as the only way to do that is to swarm barrera like pac and jones did and beat him into submission which would leave khan open and although i sort of agree with everybody saying this is a must win fight for khan he is fighting a man whos only 2 loses in about the last decade were to the current no 1 nd no 2 p4p fighters in the world so even if he loses because of his name hell get another chance and if hes lucky hell get to fight a title holder like david diaz.
