Would you consider Prescott a big puncher??

I think you got big puncher and a fighter with power mixed up..Big punchers KO at least B class fighters and being the fact he has not done this,is why I feel he is not a big puncher...By the way Bradley can punch is he a big puncher no...Comment

So if he fights in America he automatically will punch weaker?I for one dont ..Sure he has a nice KO % but when he fought here in the states he look like he had nothing on his punches..He also was beat by a skinny lil fighter who was there to be KO'd and this guy made Prescott look like a bum..So is Prescott a big puncher or a guy who got his KO% by fighting in Cuba??
Is it like being on the Moon where Gravity is far less and you are capable of lifting heavier weights? Please explain.
You americans have such a gradiose opinion of your country it's amusing.Comment

Dude I'm talking about the level of fighter he is fighting...Prescott fighting in Cuba against bums is not the same as going to the Olympics and fighting the best fighters there are in the world...A poster was saying look at Prescott's KO % and I'm saying if I KO 30 bums and one decent fighter with a weak chin,then come to the states were even a C class fighter is a bit more skilled and trained then a club fighter in the heart of Cuba does that make me a puncher??By the way does not matter where you are from matters if you are fighting at a high level in the sport which Prescott has shown not to be ready for...Once again Prescott has power but he is not a big puncher...Last edited by Rome-By-Ko; 09-07-2010, 08:33 PM.Comment

the level of competition in america is better than in colombia. it's not a nationalistic thing but a reality thing. there are only so many opponents to pick from in colombia and most of them are weak. in america there is a much wider selection of opponents and a much wider variety of styles to face. prescott ko's all the guys in colombia cause they are patsies who can't fight a lick but in america even the c level fighters he is facing are much more well schooled and that's why he can't ko them.
does he have decent power i would say yes since he can score knockdowns and shake up guys but is he a big puncher i would say no cause he's yet to ko anyone of note but china chin.Comment

You can only beat whats in front of you. Hes not in a position to fight any top class fighters right now. That doesnt mean he isnt a big puncher. Wft are u talkin about? Maidana didnt KO anybody until he fought Ortiz....so is he not a puncher? Lol pleaseComment

The convo is not about Maidana at all you brought him up...But to answer your question he is a big puncher when his level of competition step up he still showed he had explosive power and a big punch..Ortiz was the next big thing and is still being discussed as a big threat at 140lb..Prescott on the other hand look like **** against a C level fighter..He is not a big puncher dude get it threw ya brain..Oh and prescott is not in line to fight any top fighter because he is not a big puncher,if he was they would have had him in the ring vs somebody already by now...Look at Maranda or Holt or Harris or even Bailey...Big punchers always land fights because they are dangerous why have we not seen Prescott in god knows when??Comment

Forget the numbers just watch the guy fight.I for one dont ..Sure he has a nice KO % but when he fought here in the states he look like he had nothing on his punches..He also was beat by a skinny lil fighter who was there to be KO'd and this guy made Prescott look like a bum..So is Prescott a big puncher or a guy who got his KO% by fighting in Cuba??
He's obviously got a heavy hand but it's nothing serious. Colombia is known for producing decent hard hitters.Comment

If that skinny little fighter youre referring to is the new title holder, youre wrong saying he was there to be KO'ed. You must not have watched that fight.I for one dont ..Sure he has a nice KO % but when he fought here in the states he look like he had nothing on his punches..He also was beat by a skinny lil fighter who was there to be KO'd and this guy made Prescott look like a bum..So is Prescott a big puncher or a guy who got his KO% by fighting in Cuba??Comment

Knocked down by a jab... wobbled by a jab.
GOT UP from the knock down and wasn't even hurt, which can indicate the knockdown was a flash knockdown.
Based off that, being wobbled by a jab is worse. Especially after what happenedComment
