Khan v Barrera - anyone going?

[Colin_147]

Anyone going to the fight? booked tickets today but not been to MEN before

I'm not going but unless Barrera has lost it completely Khan is going to get demolished.

Chatting to a few mates about going. Been to the MEN many times for fights, any seat gets you a good view.

Best fight was Hatton v Magee during the world cup 2002. I've never seen anything like it!

Looks like this might be postponed due to Barrera getting cut in a warm up bout - FFS!!

Warren reckons it might go back a couple of weeks. With 15,000 tickets sold it could be a belting atmosphere. Not bothered with tickets yet and won't get any until it gets confirmed...again.

Any idea when this will be confirmed? Apparently Barrera needs to see a doctor

All I've read is that it will be a few weeks before it heals and with a March 15th date his sparring will be cut if they stick to it.

I've not seen the cut yet but it was a definite headbutt which is why he got a DQ victory. Due to this being a BIG fight for Khan I reckon they'll postpone for a few weeks at least. The other fights on the undercard won't be too put out either if this is the case.

Could well be right. Some guy also mentioned that the Enzo fight may need to be put back due to his opponent 'not being ready'. All points to a few weeks postponment
