Im just gona step forward and say that khan vs barerra is gona be a mismatch to some extent and end up like dela hoya vs chavez. Khan is gona totally smash him and stop him in mid rounds and make the legend look bad. There no doubt in my mind that if barerra lands on khan clean its sweet dreamz buh I added the pluses and minus's and think that thats not gona happen. khan has too many advantages over barerra. I am not a khan fan, and I think he needs to beat a legitimate lightweight like casamayour or campbell or the diaz's before I start wearing the khan T shirt
Oscar fought better guys to that point than Khan has to this point in his fight with Barrera. The question is how good is Barrera now. But Khan's people are taking a gamble. Is Barrera washed up? In any case, they should be watching the Junior Jones tapes.
I think Khan will do it also...how he does it I dont know - I'm sure he's going to box for a 12 round fight but may finish MAB if he gets the opportunity. One thing to remember is that Freddie Roach has seen Khan in with Manny Pac and seen how he handled him...so Roach is confident of Khan pulling this one off...and in boxing its always about timing and I think the time is now right for Khan to beat MAB. But...you never know how much MABs got left in the tank and if he can show his old self then Khan could have too much on his hands to deal with. But i'll stick with Khan UD or mid-late TKO.
I think people are underestimating barerra. they are convinced he is totally washed up but thats not the case. Having sed that I think Khan beats him stylistically becuase he has the speed and reach advantage. thers no way khan knocks barerra clean out, it will have to be a TKO or RTD.
Chavez-DLH is exactly what came up to my mind a few days ago. But you missed the point which might be the closest similarity: Chavez suffered a cut during his preparations just like MAB in his unnecessary tune-up. So there's a very good possibility, that Khan will open up that cut and the fight will end in a similar way.
I know your predictions are usually pretty good, but on this occaison I don't see Khan making it through 12 rounds without getting tagged.
