After blowing out UK superstar Amir Khan in less than a minute of the first-round in Manchester, Colombian puncher Breidis Prescott (20-0, 18KOs) has world title dreams on his mind. He made good on his promise to knock Khan out, but even Prescott was surprised with how quick the fight was over.
"I was saying from the moment I got to England that I was going to knock him out and that's just what I did. Now I feel great. I think Amir Khan is a great fighter who has got lots of skills," Prescott said to Sky. "It's just that I went in there and let him hands go. I'm very powerful and I caught him. That's what happened."
Prescott said he is open to fighting Khan at any time, even back in England, but doesn't really think that Khan would want to face him again. Khan is scheduled to return on December 6 in Birmingham. Frank Warren, Khan's promoter, has future fight options on Prescott and there has been no word on what he plans to do with the big puncher.
"I'm not really sure if he would want it (a rematch)! I'll do whatever it takes, like I said, I'll give it to him in his house of he wants. If he wants a rematch, I don't care," Prescott said. "This is how you have to do it; in order to become a great champion you have to knock out great people in your career - and that's where I'm going in the future."
