From what I hear, Amir Khan has landed a fight with Barrera (yes, the Mexican legend). Now when I was first told this I laughed and thought Khan would get KOed, but thinking about it, Barrera is really a featherweight (at the most) who'll be fighting at lightweight. And he's 35, which is REALLY old for a lightweight fighter. I'm convinced Warren wouldn't make this fight if he thought Khan would lose badly.

This may well lead to the end of the road for Khan.

If he wins, what a name to have on your record even given his age...
