    Open the cut on Barrera?
    Flurry until the ref steps in?
    Put on a boxing display and shut out Barrera?
    Frustrate Barrera with the jab and perhaps win on a foul or disqualification?

    :huh

    Stay outside, use his height and reach advantage, when an ageing Barrera gasses out in the later rounds, go for the KO, if not, wide points decision.



    Or Barrera lands one on the jaw, and Khan get KTFO...

    similar to the Junior Jones fight. Could Khan win? Yes, but only if Barrera is finished. Khan better be thinking he is fighting a prime Barrera, although if Barrera were prime Khan would be in big trouble. Barrera would be too good and Khan not experienced enough. My blueprint for Khan would be to get him hurt early and rocked and then swarm him and either stop him or keep rocking him and win a decision. If he cannot hurt Barrera that is a problem. Barrera is going to be very motivated. Khan's chin not holding up well previously is not a great thing going into this fight. I suppose most people see that as a fluke.

    Keep outside and Jab jab jab, I'm pretty sure Roach will insist upon it. I think Roach will have taught him how to tie-up properly if in trouble also. Hence Khan UD.

    An M:16.

    Seriously though, the recent cut might factor in if Khan can hit the mark. Other than that he doesn't have a hope if Barerra wants to win.

    He can probably get the decision if he wears one of these....

    I agree with the hands up part, but I think he has to take a chance and try to hurt and stop Barrera. If he gets on his toes and boxes I am not sure he can hold that tactic for the whole fight against a guy as good as Barrera.

    I am not sure it works too well. Eventually the tactics of Barrera will slow down Khan. I think Khan has to get that big punch in at the beginning of the fight to get Barrera's respect. If he does not hurt Barrera or rock him and show him some power he will not win.
