Khan v Barerra Vote

[ironadeshrekson]

step too far too early for khan methinks!

My vote really shouldn't count cause i picked khan just cause i knew most wouldn't lol !! But on a real note i don't know who the hell will win this, barerra is barerra and my only question is the same as many how much does he have left. These old guys are letting b-hop and glen johnson give them a false since of security and i wonder how much barerra really has in him...for khan hated as the guy is, the hype isn't his own fault should he have said "hell no i don't want publicity or people to think i'm good, thanks but no thanks i'll take that friday night fight spot instead"...i also belive one ko doesn't ruin a guy or make him crap, any fighter is only inches away from getting decked the same way, i think khan is so so just like he should be at this stage and a loss may help bring the guy back to reality a bit since he's be steered otherwise before prescott, to many unknowns when you rush a guy's career....it's a toss up with khan having the edge due to his youth and new focus.

I'm gonna go with Kahn, vastly superior speed, power and size, although i love barrera..........

That about sums it up for me

If MAB can stay clear of Khan's hand speed and power for the first few rounds I'd say he has a chance of a later round KO/TKO, maybe between rounds 6 and 9.
Khan is pretty unproven at any kind of distance, especialy against a fighter like Barerra. The longer it goes the more chance MAB has.
I don't think this fight will go the whole distance thou.

As much as Khan has many of the skills required to be a great boxer, unfortunately for him a chin would have to be one of those, and however good the defensive coach, you can't avoid them all, and even Barrera with 50% of the power he had at his peak will rattle Khan badly when he does connect.

Agreed,think its coming down to that.I really think Khan will have to fight supremely smart/discipline and use his size,I do not think he can make many mistakes at all and not be made to pay a taxing price.Where as even a long in the tooth Marco can capitalize on green mistakes...hes a boxing truth detector. Kahn will get tagged hard at some point early while boxing out and have to plant his feet...trade to keep Barrera off.Oops.He has never been in trenches this deep.Barrera via TKO 7

Thought all you Brits would have Khan as your hero?? Guess you guys don't like overinflated fighters. Unless Khan has reinvented himself, we should see Barrera pick him apart. My logic:
Barrera gave JMM a really tough time, and could have won that fight (sorry-ass ref) => JMM would own Khan for free.

Barrera UD ~117-110
