    Your right mate.... Diaz-JMM was just sensational.... I can't imagine Khan ever been as good as that with his terrible punch resistance. However if he can somehow improve his defence sufficiently he may be able to feature at the highest level. One area that seems an obvious issue is his head movement. He never moves his head relying solely on foot movement to move in and out of range. The problem with that is when your letting punches go or pursuing an opponent your very susceptable to a counter. His hand positioning isn't great either.

    Marco will take him to school it's a question of what round he'll stop amir in.

    I personally think the fight won't last 5 rounds.

    Lightweight division is far more competitive IMO than Light Welterweight.

    I still favor Barrera. Its hard to think that Barrera won't find his target at some point. And that might be enough.

    It is a strange fight. You have these two guys that perceive the other guy as vulnerable, Barrera old and struggling vs crappy fighters, Kahn totally overhyped.

    Barrera wants the victory while Kahn is still a name and vice versa.

    In a way, there is something a bit chicken**** about it, trying to trounce another guy when you view him as soft, but that's boxing. May the best man, or the least vulnerable man, win.
