    like I said, I really don't care it's going to be a soft touch regardless if it's prescott or not and in the UK so whatever, have a wipe out tune up fight. McCloskey would have been a decent match at least.
    So it's okay to not avenge 1st round KO losses, because a couple of fighters didn't do it.

    And it's funny, I was expecting you to keep the argument going on who had Prescott beat before fighting Khan. I am pretty sure you realized Khan didn't have any one either so you dropped that argument with the quickness.

    I mean, Khan did have a better record than Prescott with his 3 knock downs, 1 against Gomez, 1 against Limond, and 1 against Drizlane[don't even bother with Boxrec, it won't show it, you'll have to watch the fights].

      I think the point Natas was making is that Margarito was an established champion. Prescott at that time was just like Amir a prospect. Margarito already had proven himself as a top fighter.

      Khan-Prescott was two prospects fighting eachother. Cotto-Margarito was two established champions fighting eachother. Amir went on to beat top fighters while Prescott went on to lose from mediocre fighters.

      So you cannot compare Khan-Prescott with Cotto-Margarito at all.

      I would love to see Amir fight Prescott in April though to avenge his loss but I wouldn't mind seeing him in with a Peterson or McCloskey either because Peterson, McCloskey >>>> Prescott.

        While Margachito will still enjoy the fact that he already ruined Cotto at least he probably won't have the illegal advantage he had in their first fight so it does make a little difference .
        Khan probably improved since his loss to Prescott and Prescott seems to some as if he is on the decline so Khan's chances are better this time.
        So there is a big difference.

          Really no difference in the terms you are putting them in Kev, it is the fight with the highest demand for Khan until the Tim/Devon fight winner.
