Comments Thread For: Khan on Prescott Rematch: Not Now, Maybe in The Future

[arraamis]

I think he proved any doubts with his fight against Maidana. If he decides to fight Prescott after Peterson, so be it. Peterson-Khan is going to be a great fight.

The only way Khan\Peterson becomes a great fight is if, Khan doesn't run constantly.

If Khan should seek rematches, it should be McCloskey, because the cut ended the fight and then possibly Maidana.

Prescott's ship has sailed, but it would be a ballsy move if Khan did rematch Prescott and would go a long way towards proving himself. That kind of KO will not go away by itself, Khan has to deal with it in the ring or just live with it.

Khan doesn't run anyway, he sets himself up on the outside. It's called boxing, not KO or GTFO.

Why would Khan rematch McCloskey? That is a huge step backwards, he should be looking at Alexander/Bradley after Peterson. McCloskey still needs to prove his worth against a gatekeeper.

No point rematching Maidana, been there and done that. The only reason he'd rematch Prescott is to say ' I've beaten everyone I've fought ', kinda like Lewis.

That kind of KO does go away when you fight someone who is a much better version of Prescott, who has a freakish amount of power and has beaten the much better opposition.

Not only did he look good against Alvarado, he looked DAMN good against him. Bredis' only problem(and it cost him the fight)was that when he had Mike hurt against the ropes, he smothered himself, and punched himself out trying to close the show. Had he been patient, and gave himself some space; he was well on his way to stopping Alvarado in spectaular fashion. It was an absolutely wonderful fight. I agree 100% with your closing statement Rome my man.

Prescott is a pretty good boxer,his problem is and always has been his stamina..If he can't do something about that he will never get to that next level...

Khan, should have followed Lennox Lewis's example when Rahman got the KO against him. Go back into the lions den and deal with it like a man. Lennox called the KO a fluke and wasn't afraid to prove it.

Khan and his handlers were terrified to go back to Prescott and still are!!!
They do not want Khan anywhere near Prescott again, and to suggest that future wins erase what happened during the Prescott bout is complete and total BS.

Just like the Maidana fight, there was DOUBT that Khan deserved the win, anytime there is doubt, a TRU Champion has always been willing and eager to go back and finish the job.

Look at Tyson\Ruddock, there was a questionable conclusion in the first fight and both said let's do it again and see who's the best. Even when Floyd got a questionable decision against Castillo, he said let's do it again to see who is the best. B-hop vs Taylor, RJJ vs Tarver, Pac vs JMM, you can go on and on and on with examples ...... ALL CHAMPIONS DO IT!!!!!

But, not Khan!!!! He's happy to get away with gift decisions here and there and never look back, THAT IS NOT THE MARK OF A TRUE CHAMPION.

Prove you're better than Maidana!!!!
Prove you're better then McCloskey!!!!

If there any doubt in the win, go back and finish kicking some azzz

Why is Khan soooooo afraid to go back in the lion's den with fighters.

KHAN has turned into the RUNNER, post Prescott, look at the freakin tapes prior to the brutal KO, Khan was in-tight and rarely ran around the ring. Post-Prescott he throws a combination and runs, them the opponent has to chase him around the ring.

I think he proved any doubts with his fight against Maidana. If he decides to fight Prescott after Peterson, so be it. Peterson-Khan is going to be a great fight.

I have to disagree a bit here,Maidana and Prescott do not fight the same...I agree Khan showed he could take a solid punch from a powerful guy,but Prescott is a way better boxer then Maidana..He could hit Khan with something harfd he does not see coming,not to mention Prescotts height..I can't say because Khan beat Maidana he could dominate Prescott in the same fashion..But I agree Khan Peterson is going to be Great...

The thing is, where does Lewis go after the KO? Nowhere, he has to rematch Rahman. Khan went up a weight division and filled out to suit 140 lbs, he wasn't the same fighter at 135 lbs.

Khan's handlers changed after Prescott, his new handles throw him in with Maidana. Who is a much more formidable opponent. There is no way you can say the Maidana victory doesn't answer a lot of questions.

There is no doubt Khan won.

Like I said, it's boxing not KO or GTFO. He was always a KO waiting to happen until Roach got his hands on him.

[Chunk..]

Prescott's shit, get over it. He did a 'Buster Douglas' and got lucky.

Pacquiao didn't go back and avenge his KO loss to Torrecampo. No one holds that against him, and he isn't the only boxer who hasn't avenged a loss but still went on to have a great career.

Khan's doing good right now fighting guys he should be fighting. Fighting Prescott is a step backwards for Khan and a lose/lose for him anyways cause even if he did win a rematch, haters are still gonna hate regardless.

Most people just wanna see Khan get banjo'd again, it's got fuck all to do with being a 'true champion' and avenging his only loss.

If Prescott did a "Buster Douglas" and got lucky .... then why is there fear of Khan being KO'ed again, if he should rematch????

That kind of logic, or lack of logic, doesn't add up. And yes it has everything to do with being a tru champion. See, the difference here is I'm not a bandwagon hopper, I've followed boxing for over twenty years and can see when a fighter is either hype or substance.

Khan, if he beats Peterson without running like a deer and hoping for a decision win will take a major step towards proving he is what he states. Because up until now, his resume is not supporting the claim of GREAT.

[Enzo Mc is SHIT]

The Maidana fight was his Prescott rematch for me. He proved what he needed to prove then. The only thing a Prescott rematch does is shut him up, and there are much more important things in Amir Khan's world than shutting up Breidis Prescott.

Biggest load of shit i've read on here. It's called boxing mosh, hit and not be hit. Think about your own 'logic' first before you question mine.
