    just a thought I had there.

    It's pretty clear Khan will never be a top level boxer because of his glass chin. Even Warren can see this. He knows there's only so long he can keep putting him in with feather fisted fighters before he can steps khan up to get knocked out again. Barrera's probably the biggest fight out there for Khan at this level money wise, bigger than Thaxton or Murray and will bring a huge draw in the states.

    Do u think Warren is just cashing in on Khan for this one big fight so if Khan gets knocked out at least he earned everything he could out of him, because really Khan won't get much further.

    I think you're doing Khan a disservice. There is no reason that he can't have a succesful career. Yeah, he is going to get KTFO from time to time, but there are a LOT worse fighters than him who have had long careers and picked up world titles along the way. Khan may have a glass chin, be he is also a very gifted fighter.

    Ur right, he does have amazing skills, a great heart and if he had a good chin I think he would be an ATG but lets be honest he has about as poor a chin as u can get!

    Warren believes.

    The only person who could be cashing in is Roach, who may have made Warren believe.
