    For me Gaz it's the fact that 2 other relatively highly rated Brits have just been flattened.

    Puts a perspective on it.

    I've swung toward Barrera at the last minute too, do struggles with Gomez and Limond provide a form line to suggest Khan can live with Barrera?

    Only if Barrera is undercooked or well past it... which he might be

    Huge variables at play here, anything could happen

    One round out.

    The truth is, there were too many advantages to against Khan tonight: Past his prime Barrera fighting at a weight class above his optimum in his opponents home turf and cut in a warm up bout too.

    We all know that offensively, Khan is legitimately World Class...but as Gomez put so eloquently: he's a World Class fighter with World Class vulenrabilities.

    That chin will stop him from ever attaining the type of legacy that he seems to believe is his pre-ordained right.
