Default Khan v Barrera

What your thoughts on this folks? Despite Barrera's age I still think he will slaughter Khan!

Barrera... Khans talented but pretty chinny.

Barreras got so much class and experience...

Khan DOES punch well though and apparently was TOTALLY holding his own against Manny Pacquio in sparring (in prep for his fight with Oscar)

completely pointless fight IMO

Barrera has too much experience for Khan; the only thing he cant do is compete with speed

does Barrera have any invested intersted in Khan at all? i really dont understand why they would want to make this fight happen

i was shocked to see this too

why would barrera want to take this fight? cant see much monies in it either, unless the khan hating brigade (99% of the country) all pay for the fight in the hope to see khan getting his head kicked in!

dont care how old M.A.B. is, he will destroy khan! from bredis prescott to barrera, the death wish just gets worse!

bbc news says fights set for 24th march

Lets not forget Barrera has been out of the ring for a while, and while I agree Khan is not a great fighter, his speed could trouble the older fighter. Lets not forget Barerra is fighting up a couple of weights.

Can't wait for this and you have to give credit to Kahn for taking it on as Barrera will be some task. Wonder if Naseem will be in the crowd for this as that was his only loss to Marco, mates too aren't they?
