    Losing to JMM and PACQUIAO doesnt make you shot..., if so, 100% of the boxer from 122 to 140 are shot, included Hatton because Pacman will destroy him.

    Why not? this is the chance amir khan has been waiting for to fight someone good. Barrera might be past his prime but he is better than anyone khan has face. This is a good test for khan to see if his ready to step up his competition. :good

    Im going against you guys and picking Khan by KO. Barrera showed signs of mental give against Pac, I think Khan's combinations and handspeed will discourage Barrera, and he'll let himself be stopped.

    I'll probably be betting Khan KO, and Barrera KO 1-6.

    I like Khan, cant wait for this fight, but Amir will be countered and KO'd. Hes got the advantage in speed, power, size, reach and age. But I see Barrera doing a defensive number on him and catching him.....And for the people who say that Barrera hasn't a KO in him, look at the Willie Limond fight. The guy cant crack an egg and still had Khan in major trouble. A lightweight MAB will hit a lot harder than Willie, even a faded version.

    Manny Pacquiao vs Amir Khan - sparring

    http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ipsyWURr1yU

    khan gets hit too much around the head still in this video,on 29 secs that uppercut rocks him, in a real bout the opponent aint gonna take a step back like pac did here after landing it.

    Khan should win this. Barrera has pratically been retired since the last PAC fight as far as I can remember. Barrera is to small for this weightclass you will notice that straight away.

    Khan will have the speed and power in this fight. And even tho is chin is shaky Barrera wont be able to trouble it at this part of his carrer. Which we will say is the end of his career. Barrera will be getting paid an lot to take this fight.

    Barrera even of say 2 years ago would easily win thid fight. Now it will be an far bigger test. His expierence will only get him so far. Barrera will he dig deep anymore to win an fight.

    His last 2 fights PAC and Marquez he was virtually on the backfoot throughout. Thats not the Barrera I remember.

    This just confirms everything we know. Amir can attack with the best, but will leave himself open and will get caught. Hopefully Roach will tighten him up a bit more.

    Barrera will likely KO him but hell you gotta admire Khan's attitude. This is a really ballsy move and an interesting matchup! I never thought highly of Khan but with this decision he won me over. Great stuff for boxing.

    Still, Barrera KO.
