    I'm going Khan by stoppage in rnd 8. Not Ko though but ref steps in prematurely after some sustained offence from Khan

    Barrera of the 1st Morales fight was a different animal to the one we saw these last 7 or 8 years. That was an offensive machine. Every punch, every angle, and god given stamina. Amir wouldn't last 3 rounds with that Marco.

    It's kind of 50-50 on here, the fact is we dont know whats going to happen thats why this fight is so crazy, i really am counting the hours already.

    Who the **** said boxing is dead?

    This is I think one of the biggest fights in the U.K for a long time.

    I dont know about that, MAB is a natural bantam/feather weight so the power at that weight can not be compared to a big lightweights power, speed maybe, but Khan is fast, very fast. Khan might even shock/hurt MAB because I dont think he has felt the real power of a lightweight.

    I need to see them together to make a proper judgement. There is the size issue, but sometimes when you see them together there's not really much in it. Plus how much has MAB slipped.

    If Khan is MUCH bigger than MAB then he has a chance. If they were the same size, and it was the Barrera of old MAB KO inside 6.

    Ah sod it MAB by Knockout in the 8th.

    As it says in that article on the main page, MAB's gone the distance quite recently with Pac and Marquez and Khan is no where near their level. For me Khan's best bet is points (as long as there is no dubious stoppage for him!) but I think if MAB has anything left he'll drag him into thetrenches and stop him before then.

    No idea how it will play out really, bloody looking forward to it though.

    Barrera TKO 9

    Khan's been wobbled by too many people to put too much faith in him.

    Mohammed Medjadji, 1st round TKO single shot.

    ***an's first KD was with a chopping right.

    Again Naz was not a lightweight so its hard to compare his power to Khan's, but I know Khan is not known for his power, more speed.
