Comments Thread For: Khabib-Prescott Done: Hyrunov Expects a Tough Fight

It doesn't matter where, you didn't even know who Khabib was 3 years ago where did most of his wins come from again?

Yet he's beat better fighters then Prescott has lost to

And Prescott is boxer? Khabib is a boxer puncher. He's sure as hell a better boxer then Mitchell and McClosky, and also has a chin. Apparently Prescott is not some kind of boxer who beats guys in fantasy match ups yet loses to guys nowhere as good in real life

I have to give Khabib some credit for even wanting to fight someone like Prescott because he certainly didn't have too, I would have preferred the Prescott-Cayo match up myself, I just think Khabib is overlooking Prescott who is very dangerous stylistically for him, you mention the guys who beat Prescott right but those are the same type of fighter who don't like to get hit and like they say it's hard to hit someone who doesn't want to be hit but Khabib likes to exchange which is why he's going to lose, likely by KO!

No, see thats why you don't know boxing, Khabib isn't a boxer, he's a pressure fighter, the fights that Prescott lost for the most part he was out-boxed except for Alvarado where he beat himself, and he really didn't lose to Mccloskey. Khabib was able to bully the smaller Guzman but he won't be able to bully Prescott... As long a Prescott sticks to his jab and keeps Khabib at bay, Khabib won't stand a chance..

I don't think you know boxing. Your basing your opinion on Khabib soley on his performance against Guzman. I've only seen his fights against Campbell, Mendoza and Mabuza before he fought Guzman and he surprised me that he was pressuring him like that. He boxed well in his previous performances and countered a lot. Most of these European and Russian fighters have a solid amateur boxing background. But he can do both. Prescott can box but he only really does well moving forward.

Khan would beat both Guzman and Mabuza right now..

He did beat Mccloskey fool lol.. Do you know what a robbery is?

Cmon lets not get ahead of ourselves here, it was not a robbery. It was a close fight the McClosky should have won, but even if he did beat McClosky it doesnt matter because McClosky sucks. Prescott couldnt even KO the glass chin fighter with all that power he has?

Khabib is a sloppy fighter plain and simple.. name a prime fighter Khabib has beat? You can't

Cmon Khabib doesnt like to "get hit". He is a pretty slippery fighter who fights like a vet and knows the little tricks in boxing. If he can figure out Guzman's style, Prescott wont be that hard, especially after the 4th round

Yea he probably would, so?

Sloppy? Wow youve never seen a fighter of his then. The funniest part is that a guy defending Prescott is criticizing another fighter for being sloppy and calling him out on his resume Name a prime fighter Prescott beat. You cant

I agree. A faded Chop Chop beat the **** out of McClosky. Prescott was doing well against Alvarado but in the end he came up short. Alvarado is a decent fighter but that's about it. Herrera gave him a tough fight and he was beat down by Mayfield.
Not to mention Prescott has a lot of wear and tear on him now. I'd be surprised if Prescott hears the final bell.
