I am in that group too Dioufy - although the closer we get to the fight - the more I am having doubts!!!

I just think Khan has to jump on MAB early - the longer the fight goes on the more chance MAB will have a chance to test Khans chin and thats when you have to worry.

I am the worst tipster in the whole world - I have been telling people that a little flutter on Rounds 3, 4, 5 & 6 will earn a nice amount.

I am exactly the same, but I am still confident Khan will win, if not knock the old guy out.

I can't get the smaller, older, fatter, slower and past-it Gomez giving all them problems to Khan, with head shots and body shots, out of my head. If he give him that many problems, I fear for Khan, but I also believe he would've improved from that.

But I am still going with Khan TKO8.

Very good fight.

Roach says his plan is for khan too run in the minute he expects barrera to attack each round and attack for 2 mins when barrera is 'resting'

Barrera KO6 - Khan abandons gameplan after being badly hurt to the body - fights like a wounded animal but leaves himself exposed and gets taken out.

I've gone for Khan to stop Barrera in rounds 4-9 @ 9/1. Not great odds maybe, but not bad either.

MAB to win between rounds 6 and 8.

If Kahn wins this fight i will eat my trousers

Khan by TKO.

A good 14 pounds weight advantage; about 13 years between them; a fair height and reach disparity; power and leverage advantage to Khan...

Is the ref in Khan's favour? Barrera's too slow to close the distance effectively, and his power - at LW - isn't threatening enough to force major errors. Khan will nervously manoeuvre at range, bundling in behind flurries and leaning on Marco.

Ageing talent doesn't usually compete with a highly fit back-foot fighter. Only mental weakness can lose this for Khan; he doesn't need to expose his chin.

Willie limond enought said

Khan was chasing Limond like Balboa after a chicken. He'll be scared of Barrera, and he's good on the back foot.

the way Mr warren's card is going i think Amir is going to be stopped.

enzo lost by ko
cook lost by ko
amir?????

not looking good

the alegidly is fucked if Kahn looses

Khan on points. Barrera is a legend but there's been an end-of-the-road feel to his last couple of fights. Khan's chin could well make a mockery of my prediction.

Spot-on! If Khan had a chin it'd be a foregone conclusion.

Khan won by way of headbutt...

Have to say thought Amir looked good - but he always does offensively - how do people think he was defensively??

Just speaking to my nephews who thought I won some money - had to tell them although the fight was stopped in the 5th round all them people who think they have won money - they havn't - its the ones who put their money on a points decision are the ones who will collect!!!

Well done Kahn backers, But we will never know what would have happend with out the headbut.

You can not put Mucles on your chin

Hey mate although I have stated all along that I thought Khan would win - I certainly am not a fan of his.

And I completely agree with your last line - Khan will be exposed again - but tonight as I always thought he did well against an old man in boxing terms.
