Enjoy the fight while it lasts. This ends in a KO. I've got Prescott taking this.

wow, this is a fight worth watching!

i think prescott takes this by ko.

everyone(including me) was wondering how the eff khan could get a world title shot before this guy! but prescott got his shot, good on him! and it is not against some half-assed euro bum...like kotelnik!(?)

hopefully we will have a khan - prescott rematch by the end of this year! and i think we could have prescott as a two weight world champ! :-)

nice one.

Valero by KO inside 5.

A lot of folks don't know that Valero's style has 2 sides to it. In an actual fight, his style is crappy, he swings wildly, always going for the home run, with no intention of putting up any semblance of defense whatsoever. Blame this style on his manager/promoter, who dangles a bunch of carrots if Valero ends his fight via KO, specially when he was having that 18 1st round KO streak.

In sparring sessions, he's movements is very impressive. He picks his spots carefully, conscious about defense, and he showed great lateral movements too. Check out his yt videos against Erik Morales and Urbano Antillon, you won't believe it was him against these guys...

prescott wasnt that bad in his last fight!

will you guys actually ****ing watch it and not spout ****ty hearsay! he looked technically sound and looked like a top fighter.

Totally agree, don't know why people say he looked ****, what just because people wanted to see him put another guy away in 1 round? Not everyone has a chin as shit as Khan's. At the end of the day he won every round, battered and fustrated the other guy so much that he bit him and Prescott got the DQ win. Plus at this point i'd say that Prescott has been in with the tougher guys, he's bigger and possibly stronger so i'll go with Prescott by KO/TKO.

I hope Prescott wins. It will be another hype-job exposed.

I know it sounds ****** but I hate the way Valero keeps his mouth open like a fish when he fights. I hope some KHTFO

[SpArKeD-CoLd]

prescott will UD him, box his head off

[glasgo]

Not by choice, if this fight between a Colombian and a Venezuelan is going down via Mexico way, Bob Arum has to put JCC Jr. there. I'm pretty sure it will be billed as a double main event, two knockout artists against each other, and a wannabe Mexican legend against Joe "Bum" Palooka...

If anyone saw Prescott's last fight, I think that's a little more of what you're going to get from him. He wasn't very impressive and to me didn't show the amazing power people talk about.

Valero takes this.

[Dave Rado]

I agree. I think Valero is overrated. I saw him fight and I wasn't impressed at all. He constantly loads up on that left hand and looks only for the knockout. He uses very little skill in setting it up. That is exactly what Manny Pacquaio and Vic Darchinyan used to do but now they box a little more and try to set things up.

But look where Pacquiao and Darchinyan have got to now! Valero has a new trainer, let's see what he can do.
