    Barrera is the best name as Gaz said, but in terms of stylistic clash, his past record AND where he is now I would say Zab for sure, former linear Welterweight champ, some major deficiencies in his makeup, but a top fighter for years, on a decent run against top ten opposition, a big light welter and the hardest single shot hitter Amir has faced thus far.

    If Khan win IMPRESSIVELY then I will be very impressed. Zab is not a great fighter by any means but he's useful and has made adjustments as of late that make him a viable opponent.

    Although his old style of front running might well be the best plan here, if he can remain cagey, make Khan look as ragged as he did against McCloskey AND if Khans punches have the same effect they do on most, he can pull off the big upset here.

    Khan should do enough eye catching work and bring the volume to win on points though, Judah may struggle to get off with those fast flurries coming at him and Khan may well be able to ride out a few rough moments if Judah doesn't land anything spectacular. He walks Khan onto the kind of choppy shot that detached Mabuza from his senses and Khan is flat out.

    I'd say that out of Khan's opponents to date, Zab has the best chance of beating him.
