Amir Khan v Marco Barrera Odds for this has the British boxer odds on favourite to return to winning ways after being embarrassingly knocked out in 54 seconds by the then unknown Colombian, Breidis Prescott in his last fight. Up until that defeat, Khan was being hailed as the next big thing in British Boxing but now he will be fighting just to restore the lost belief. His promoter, Frank Warren has picked a real tough guy in Barrera to test him, the Mexican is one of the biggest names in the sport and has been at the top of the game for fifteen years.
Although way past his best, the 35 year old Barrera is best remembered for being the first man to beat Nazeem Hamed, which he did back in 2001 when winning one of his seven world title crowns. He is in fact a 25-1 shot to repeat the dose on Khan and knock him out in Round One. That bet can be made with Ladbrokes
The gap in experience between the two fighters is stark, Barrera has had 72 fights, winning 65 with 43 knock outs, while Khan is a mere novice by comparison with 20 fights with nineteen wins, fifteen by knock outs.
There has been a lot of money invested in Khan since he won the Olympic Silver Medal in 2004 and it seems inconceivable that he should fail to get his show back on the road again in this fight. We take him to win, probably on points and we expect him to have to endure a very severe test in the process. He is 2-1 with Ladbrokes to do so.
5-6 Khan, 6-5 Barrera, 25-1 Draw.
