    I certainly hope so. It will get that greedy ******* off Box Office and leave Warren with yet another cash cow down the toilet.

    20 minutes, no reply. What's your call for the fight? Fence sitters don't have an opinion about others btw.

    Can't see Warren risking Khan so soon after the KO loss. Warren and Roach know something we don't otherwise this fight wouldn't have happened. Plus Khan is a big lighweight, Barerra will look small in the ring against a younger, stronger man with faster hands and better reach. Of course Barerra has a puncher's chance but I doubt he hits as hard (at lightweight) as Prescott.

    I'm leaning towards youth vs experience here but in this fight nothing would shock me.

    Maybe Warren has lost a little faith. He's no fool and saw Khan get KO'd and hurt previously just like the rest of us. He has a strategy of giving fighters big shots near the end of thier careers when theres nothing left to lose - anyone with a long future gets a slow & safe milking. Warren knows if Khan loses again that it for the big chances and he'll have to play out the rest of his sky contract as a 1st or 2st undercard fighter, so he might as well get the biggest paying match up he can.

    Khan v's the man who beat Naz is a about the biggest draw he could get over here, plus Barrera's age and recent form does gives Khan a decent chance. But I'm certain that if Khan had beaten Prescott there's no way Warren would be letting him in with Barrera now.

    If he has anything left he will. Khan's chin is PURE china.

    I think khan wins a ud but gets put on the canvas at least once. Remember the only person to stop khan was prescott and he 'appears' to be really heavy handed. The other guys like gomez merely put him down or hurt him but could not finish him. I see a similar scenario playing out here. It doesnt look like marcos power has carried up judging from his last two fight enough to stop khan but maybe drop him.

    Berrera is evens to win, very very tempting to place what little money I have on him. So many different things to weigh up here, but I hope Berrera can do it.

    MAB never actively pursue the head of khan...only the body is open. i bet MAB's bad cut is the main reason when he doesn't offer his head just to connect a punch that would KO Khan
