Name some Modern day "throwback fighters".

Khan always talked big avoided Breidis Prescott like the plague wouldn't fight him under ANY condition, and I believe that it had a negative effect on his career. Khan had a super-inflated opinion of himself and only wanted fights with HUGE paydays. Prescott deserved the fight.

Ricky Hatton did the same thing to Junior Witter, who followed him around claiming a fight but Hatton ignored him, even though Witter was World Champ for 2-3 years. It seems he didn't like him..........

I remember that. It seemed like the only reason Hatton gave for not fighting Whitter was that he did not like him. Khan did avoid Prescott. Prescott would have fought a rematch with Khan anywhere at any weight for even a small purse. Prescott would have been a much better opponent than the last two guys Khan fought. I think team Khan has a fear of Prescott. Khan should have tried to reverse his KO loss to Prescott long ago.
