Description : Here we have an original Frank Warren fight promotions poster for the WBO lightweight eliminator between Amir Khan & Mexican legend, Marco Antonio Barrera. This poster has been signed by Amir Khan in gratitude for furnishing his gym walls with original fight posters in his home town of Bolton.
In this WBO lightweight eliminator, 2004 Olympic silver medalist Amir Khan (20-1, 15 KOs) won a 5th round technical decision over legendary Baby Faced Assassin and former three-division world champion Marco Antonio Barrera (65-7, 42 KOs) on Saturday night at the M.E.N. Arena in Manchester, England. In round 1, Barrera suffered a deep gash on the hairline from an unintentional headbutt that bled into his left eye from that point on. Khan was faster and very sharp, often punishing the bloodied Barrera on the ropes. Barrera had some moments too, but Khan was in command for the rounds contested. Doctors looked at the cut in the 4th, but the bout was not stopped at that point (which would have resulted in a no decision). The bout was stopped because of the cut during the following round, sending the verdict to the scorecards, which read 50-44, 50-45, 50-45 for Khan.
This Amir Khan autographed Frank Warren promotions poster comes with a letter of guarantee of authenticity from KOfightposters.com for a lifetime & beyond.
