    No seating is going to be good viewing for an Amir Khan supporter. I suggest you stay home.

    When I went to Haye-Enzo I guy I was with got bumped up from a seat in the Gods to outer ringside because he suffered from vertigo (if you've been in the cheap seats at the O2 you'll know what I mean). Apparently they keep a number of seats open for such emergencies and they let him and one friend move free of charge.

    Heh. Nice line, but Barrera is old, past his best, fighting way above his natural peak weight, he struggled against a 1 and 7 fighter last time out and is up against a younger, faster, bigger, harder-hitting opponent. Khan is gonna beat him very easily.

    Barerra didn't struggle last time out, he got butted in the 2nd round and other guy got DQ'd.

    It was the third round. A guy who is supposed to be one of the top men going three rounds with a complete nobody, a last-minute substitute fighter rated at world no 802, with a record of 7 losses, 1 win and 1 draw, and then failing to KO him and winning on a DQ in the 3rd ? That counts as struggling for me. If Barrera wasnt shot that bum would have been lucky to last a minute before being blasted out.

    You're right it was the 3rd but IMHO you are looking at the fight from the wrong angle, Barrera didn't struggle, when he was butted he was well on top and looked like he was using the fight as a sparring session to get a bit of work in rather than trying finish his man as early as possible.

    Hmmm, maybe you're right there. Still think Khan will be too big and too quick.

    So do I, but I wouldn't be surprised if Barerra "old manned" him out of it either.....

    At Haye-Barrett I moved to the front when the action started. No one said anything. If there is a gap, it just looks like you are walking to your seat.
