    And Prescott isn't exactly a knocking out elite guys.
    Before he fought Khan, 17 of Prescott's 19 wins were by KO, and most of them didn't reach the end of the 3rd round. The dude's got some power. He just can't fight for more than 3 rounds, as he showed in his last few fights. Just look at how he did against Kevin Mitchell. He controlled the fight early, but Mitchell took over after a few rounds.

    I suppose Bradley has some decent power because he did drop Cherry, Peterson and Witter, but I just can't see him cracking Khan's chin unless he lands a REALLY good punch.

      thing is, we haven't seen him vs a puncher at 140 and maybe the move up in weight improved his chin- he was a big 135lber and might have had trouble getting down there

        Man...I don't think you really understand exactly how bad Khan's chin is. Before Prescott hit him with a few HUGE punches he was wobbling Khan with jabs. A shot, blown up Barrera made Khan's legs shake with a left hook. Khan was getting dropped and hurt fighting bums in England. He was getting hurt in the AM's with headgear on.

        He literally has the worst chin I've ever seen. It actually wouldn't shock me if freaking Malignaggi hurt him.

        Bradley can easily stop him just by hitting him with clean punches.

            Damn, its really that bad? Wow...Well in that case I don't see his chin improving at 140, because he certainly couldn't have been drained in the amateurs if he was fighting in the same weight class as Victor Ortiz.
