    And cannot be considered one for this reason!
    The truth is that we have NO way of knowing if Barrera is shot. Two fights where he was just trying to get rounds in against cab drivers and then the Khan forehead assault in less than a round. We have little to go on in these recent fights. But before that Barrera had given Marquez a great fight and then gone through the motions for 12 against Manny.

    To say he is shot is harsh and a tad premature. I want to see Barrera back in the ring and quickly so we can all see for sure. Needs to be a top 10 LW.
    MAB has been an unquestionably Great fighter,but you look at him now and he has slowed considerably and is a shadow of his former self...maybe shot is harsh and I should have just said time to hangem up,but it does'nt hide the fact he is ageing and is at the end of his career!! I just hope he makes the decision to end it now and he does'nt end up another boxer clinging onto their career credibility because they could'nt let go!
    He is getting on and no doubt not quite what he was several years ago. But we haven't really been given any opportunity to see what he has left.

    I still want to see him fight. If he doesn't impress, then yes, I will admit that he should retire. But he should at least have the chance to get a fair fight in before making that decision.

    The Khan fight was utter bollocks TBH. Neither man proved all that much to me.

    well certainly says a bit about Amir or better said, Frank Warren now doesn't it
    If he is well off financially Barrera needs to just hang 'em up.
