    Frank Warren is hoping next month fight with Amir Khan vs Marco Antonio Barrera will now be for the vacant WBO Lightweight Title. Nate Campbell had his championship belts taken away from him for failing to make weight & Warren will now pressure the WBO to make Khan/Barrera a title fight.

    Ridiculous.

    One over-hyped, china-chinned 'prospect' who's recently been exposed v one blown up shot featherweight.

    And these guys get to fight for a title before people like Joan Guzman?

    I don't want Barrera to become a 4 divisional champion under these circumstances. It would mean nothing.

    Christ if Khan wins he might actually have to fight someone like JMM/Diaz/Valero.

    My god....

    If it wasn't Barrera he was fighting, I'd almost wnat to see Khan win just to see how over matched he looks when he steps in the ring with the best of the 135lb division. Katsidis would destroy Khan.
