All Khan proved is....

[rowlesy]

How very sad that people will just not give credit where its due. He outboxed him from start to finish, and was outboxing him before the clash of heads which I think was Barrera's fault anyway.

I think your wrong, Barrera looked pretty good before the clash, he was reading Khan quite well and looked cute. I only watched a stream so it was hard to make out how bad the cut was.

[paddy448]

i predicted that mab would knock khan out. fuck the cut khan looked so much improved tonight and no 1 can deny that.i always thought khan could be world class i just thought his chin would not take him to that level. look maybe he is chinny, but a solid defence can always compensate 4 that. i like khan i think he can do big things with roach. all this hate , bollocks to it

[ElTerribleMorales]

it's not hate on my part, i thought he looked good, just he looked good against an old shot Barrera, i said before the fight was bad for Khan no matter what, he won, but like i said, Barrera looked bad, it was hard to see a guy who was known for being so accurate and so crafty, be all the opposite, yea Khan should be given credit for all of his improvement, just don't think they should blow him up to be the next big thing till he takes on a REAL PRIME lightweight, call me crazy but i'd actually like to see Khan up against Raheem

It proved Khan isnt total garbage which is what many thought after he was KO'd......

BUT it doesnt prove he will be a superstar/undisputed champ either (by a long shot).....

I will start believing when he can do the same thing to a Katsidis, Funeka, or one of the Diaz's.......

Maybe Prescott did get lucky.....I wasnt real impressed with Breidis in his last fight....

Morales, your act is getting tired, as long as it isn't your favorite fighter they deserve no credit whatsoever? Just a year ago Barrera went a full fight with Pacquiao and Marquez, I am not saying he is the exact same fighter, but Khan deserves credit.

[bikersk]

Well I thought Khan improved a lot with his defense and movement. He's always had speed and skill. He was winning all the rounds but to MAB's credit it would have been hard to see out of that eye and he would have tested Khan in the later rounds had the cut not been there. But all in all a good showing from Khan IMO>

[Taeth]

Does it show Khan is somebody who will be the future p4p champ? Absolutely not, this fight played into his hands because Barrera isn't a brawler and there are very few fighters that would be able to out box Amir. However, brawlers are his bane, its impossible for a fighter to never get hit, and he isn't dynamic defensively, thus leads to he would give any purist one hell of a fight, but that doesn't mean shit if he is fighting some like Prescott unless he really chances his defensive abilities.

yea cause a guy who has his id as "ElterribleMORALES" is gonna have Barrera of all people as his favorite fighter... think before you post

There are plenty of mexicans let alone other people who still like both Barrera and Morales, maybe not during the height of their rivalry, but that was awhile ago. I would ask you to think; period, but that would be an impossible feat for you to accomplish.

[TheDemolitionDan]

All Khan showed is that he has potential to be great. He could be a Pacquiao type struggle early on in his career, and then go on to become a great great fighter. Will it happen? May'be, but I do know this he did look good even though Barrera wasn't the same Barrera in the past, but Barrera did land a clean punch a few seconds after the fight was stopped and Khan was was rocked a little.

[jumpship]

Very disappointed .

The media will be going in to overdrive about Khan from now until he meets someone in there prime.

Tell you what . If he's that good then surly he must meet Prescott for a rematch.

[Dark Lord Al]

Dont get to excited , the first time any sort of puncher hits Khan on the chin , hes gone.
But 1 thing for sure he should be exciting to watch. well done to Khan.

[ukansodoff]

All Khan proved is 4 things.

1. barrera isnt a natural lightweight (just like the pacman aint a natural lightwelter)

2. If somebody pours a pint of blood directly into your eye ball you cant see too good.

3. Khan is paying alot of attention to Roach in training and inbetween rounds and its helping ALOT
4. Khans speed and combinations are good enough to cause anybody problems ANYBODY.

[the_PRODIGY]

Khan has always been good offensively. But even after this fight, winning against an aged legend.. he still remains untested. Truth. Nothing should change much on the doubts regarding his infamous chin. (if he actually has one)

Barrera..oh man. Very unfortunate. I thought he has a lot left and it's enough to knock Khan out. Sad cuz time is not on his side. Could have been a huge step up on his resumer over Erik. But I guess them legends do have a lot in common. Remember the robbery against David Diaz? Fukk that. Now that is more than unfortunate. those judges were a disgrace.

Khan has improve. But his chin remains untested since the Prescott disaster.
