    Default What's next for Barrera?

    The title speaks for itself. Is he done, unlucky, needs to go back down: what? What should he do. Many might say retire but its too bad that he'd have to go out on a loss like he had to Khan. What do you guys think?

    Retire is all I can say, or otherwise do one last final fight in Mexico for all his fans against some no mark.

    i'd go with retire, unless he really feels he can pull off at least one more "meaningful" win at 130, maybe against the likes of Baloyi, Guerrero, or maybe Barrios.

    He barely got down to 135, I can see now way he gets to 130. If he could fight a faded name at 135 or even 140 then it might be worth it. He could always have a rematch with Naz although that would probably have to be at Cruiserweight to suit Naz' 'growth'

    That trilogy was too good to see it soiled by watching the 2 of em slugging out with nothing left.

    Barrera won't go away thinking that he lost that fight. He was the victim of unfortunate circumstances and Khan took advantage of what happened. Simple as.

    Barrera should go home and heal properly, and I think he should come back and have a couple of low key build up fights against guys who have better records than the two before Khan, and if he still feels he has something left take on someone in the top 10 and then maybe have a final shot at a belt. Then win or lose, just retire.

    He doesn't need to fight so could just retire, but I don't think he is as shot as people make out, nor Khan as good as people are suggesting.

    No, I'm not sure by any means. Those are just general perceptions really.

    Barrera wont think he lost . He got heabutted right away and couldnt continue because of the cut . He wasnt beaten by Khan therefore we still havent seen what he has left cuz a guy whos blinded by blood isnt able to show what they can do.

    KHAN RE_MATCH. I believe after that 1st round Khan would of worn him down and beaten him within the distance. He wouldnt of gone down but the ref would of rescued him.

    But theres thousands that disagree with that, Barrera himself claims Khan couldnt hurt him (i think hes lyin) so lets get that forhead sorted and get a re-match goin.
