    I remember watching the pre-fight interview while Kahn was in the dressing room and he said

    'This is gonna be one sided' and I remember laughing imagining if Prescott somehow pulled off an upset. Now I'm sure some talented fellow will find that interview and edit it onto the fight for a nice YT video.

    I do feel sorry for the guy though, I always feel terrible and shocked when seeing a hyped prospect going down like that. It's sad for them and he seems like a good person all around - people seem to cut him down for having aspirations.

    I just wonder how big an impact not choosing Mayweather Sr or McGirt would have had. This fight wouldn't have even been made. No doubt he would have met a similar end somewhere along the way, but it's just funny how our paths are decided in the decisions we make.

      Of course. That Khan is like a young Calzaghe who actually fought someone capable before their 40's.

          Not necessarily. It is possible to have an entire career fighting bums and carefully studied opponents: Game but no power, power but slow, good but old (sometimes this fails specially in recent times as Katsidis would confirm), no footwork, you see the point. It is possible. I'm glad whenever they fail though.

            Plain weird. And probably, unfortunately, the final nail in the Rubio coffin, even though I don't think it was his fault.

              Yeah, like the young Calzaghe who beat Chris Eubank, you fool.

                  Not to spoil the fun, but he is pretty average at best. One of those colombian ****ers that is coming out here and there. Nothing special, though he can punch.

                    Damn, imagine if that right landed after the left as he was going down? That woulda been some serious damage after all the rest.
