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

Khan! silly... Mccloskey too

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.

It's apparent this is the case he's going on 1 fight Allakhardiev was viewed as more of a mover boxer before the Guzman fight and will prob do both agasinst Prescott who presents a challenge early bcse of his length but will fade as the fight progresses anything other than the typical Prescott performance will end up as a defeat

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.

Maybe you didn't see Presscott vs Mccloskey because Prescott beat him from pillar to post and clearly was robbed.. even came close to stopping him a couple times.

Khan! silly... Mccloskey too

Khan was green, he wasnt prime

And mcClosky Did you see what ancient Corley did to him?

If Khan was so green why didn't he give Prescott an immediate rematch fool? Prescott would beat Khan right now.. and Corley is a good fighter, styles make fights..

I saw it. It was a close fight. You don't get more point in a round for almost stopping someone. Rios vs Abril was a robbery, Cloud vs Campillo was a robbery but but McClosky vs Prescott wasn't a robbery. If the fight wasn't in Ireland he might have gotten the nod but its no guarantee.
A 38 year old Corley did a number on Paul and he was a late replacement.

Prescott beat mccloskey and didn't get credit for it, thats that. Had the fight been anywhere else but the UK Prescott would have won. Mcclosky came on late but Prescott had won more than enough rounds by then I scored the fight..

[Pain~Lucy]

wow, will definitely wathc this fight! I got Khabib by murder in late rounds!

Corley is a good fighter? In the year 2011? Come on man, now you're just being silly.

Prescott is a dangerous opponent and should/will not get overlooked. With that being said... You're making out Khabib to be some 10 year, chiseled veteran who's defended his belt 10 times... He's fought 18 times... It was not but ONE year ago when Khabib was still just a prospect.. You keep asking who has he fought... He's not supposed to have some incredible résumé, he's just getting started! The Mabuza fight put him on the map and the Gizman fight made him a titleholder.... NOW he's going to start getting the big fights and NOW he's going to start padding his résumé.

He's done everything he should have done as a prospect-contender and now moving towards a titlist.... He fought Nate Cambpell, Mabuza and then Guzman... All might be past prime, but still very capable fighters with decent resumes themselves. And now he's moving on to Prescott, and if he wins probably rios, etc etc...

He's coming up just fine and if anything, hell his résumé is ALREADY better then other top prospects who come up. He gets no credit for beating Campbell, Mabuza and Guzman... (Whom he all destroyed) ...but how is that any different then Lets say Canelo fighting Mosley? Ill tell you how.....Canelo was a champion/title holder who CHOSE that fight to defend his title... Khabib was merely a up and coming prospect fighting the guys ahead of him In the division rankings to be able to set himself up for a title fight and be able to defend his belt! .... So what's he do? His first title defense is against... YOUR BOY... Bredis Prescott, a dangerous fighter! His opposition is already light years ahead compared to some of his peers in ALL divisions who are rated highly.

Again, I don't think you understand that Khabib is just now making his move to world class recognition. You're expecting way too much, resume wise.... For a guy with only 18 fights. especially considering actual TITLEHOLDERs pick fights like Mayweather versus Mosley, 2007 de la Hoya..... Among plenty other of examples. So those fights are okay for champions to partake in, yet a guy with 18 fights who destroys Campbell, Mabuza and Guzman isn't even Worth mentioning........ Okay bro.

Pretty good undercard fight I am going for Prescott.
