    btw Khan fought Barrera at 135 not 140 just so ya know.
    You got me on the 135 still he was very faded I hope you can agree on that. Where you fail is that Sharma Mitchell was a former world champ legit and Matthew Hatton could not hold his jock. Not saying Sharmba was a monster but he is MUCH more accomplished than Matthew Hatton is. Plus this guy just had an article talking about how everyone is avoiding him and you come with Matthew Hatton?

          No he should do a Bradley and fight a shot legend like Castillo.
          The Hatton fight is **** he should fight a top 10 guy preferbly the wba champ.

                For sure I agree about Barrera no doubt. I also agree that you probably shouldn't talk a ton of smack and then fight Matthew Hatton (I'm not a big fan of trash talk) However minus the trash talk I don't think it's that bad of a move to have a tune up when you are moving up in weight.

                I'm also not sold on Mitchell being much better than Hatton just cause he was a former world champion. There are a bunch of "world champions" who should've never been allowed to even be in the same room as a belt, and if you look at Sharmbas record I'm guessing the only names you'd recognise are his losses.

                  Wow, Khan? The great jr welterweight that beats every welterweight not named Floyd & Pacman is fighting the already destroyed Matt Hatton, the next pfp king for sure right there.

                    I agree that it will do absolutely nothing to Amir's legacy so I'm also not in favour of it.

                    About the Khan-Bradley fight... yeah me too. I think the Khan-Peterson fight will give us a good indication how Amir would do against Timmy.
                    Hmm, I'm not sure.

                    I wouldn't mind a Zaveck fight. The other title holder, I forget his name.

                    It's whether they would come to the UK, though.

                    Erm, I'm not sure but I'm sure there are better fights out there.

                    I think Peterson is good fighter but I think Khan beats Peterson easier than he would beat Bradley, personally.

                    I think Khan will have very little bother with Peterson although he is a good fighter.

                      I still believe Sharmba to be much better. He did lose at the highest levels but has some solid wins over JL Cruz, no joke Stewart, Tackie, and Cool Vince. Agreed not world beaters but solid world class opponents. I have no qualms about taking a tune up at a higher weight but that will now be Paul McCartney, Zab Judah, Lamont Peterson, and Matthew Hatton and to run around claiming you are the best and everyone is ducking you, that is what gets me about it. He wanted to fight Morales which is a joke. You would figure he could mix in a rematch with Maidana or even Prescott or Matthyse, Bradley, Alexander, someone. If the kid was a little more humble and realistic I would not have a problem but just the hyperbole that comes out of his mouth every day is sickening.
