Even if Frederick Lawson doesn't wind up fighting for a major title by the end of 2015, his handlers are going to make damn sure he's ready for whenever such an opportunity comes his way.

The unbeaten welterweight will appear on ESPN2 for his second straight fight, as he faces veteran spoiler Breidis Prescott this Thursday in Hialeah, Florida. The bout is a special edition of ESPN2's Friday Night Fights series, which—similarly to his last fight—takes place on a night other than Friday.

The mid-week edition marks Lawson's first fight of 2015, coming nearly six months after an impressive 10-round points win over Ray Narh last October. The bout served in chief support to Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam's well-earned decision win over Curtis Stevens in their middleweight title eliminator.

“It meant a lot for me to win that fight. I've known Ray for a long time, so it was an honor to face him in the ring, and to do so on national television,” notes Lawson (23-0, 20KOs), who recently relocated from Ghana to the United States. “I was happy with my performance and am excited to return to ESPN2.” [Click Here To Read More]

When a boxer is all rounded it is hard to hate on him. Federick Lawson is an upcoming boxer with the talent to make it to the top. His division is one of the most exciting ,hes a boxer puncher , can move , fight backwards and is very humble,as we can see from the way he handled himself from the constant taunting and insults from Narh. Now with that being said , we have only two fights we can look at,forget those upcoming fights in Ghana , Mohamed kayongo and Ray Narh. With Ray Narh , the is a revelation that Narh was injured during the fight , and pictures could be seen on Narhs facebook page of his broken thumb and him going for surgery, nevertheless its Lawsons chin that I wanted to see if he could take a punch and he can ,he spars with Manny Pacquaio,Golovkin and im sure Abel Sanchez has corrected that mistake of constantly leaning in which makes him susceptible to an uppercut or check hook. Prescott is as tough as they come,fought with the best,KO'd Khan,fought with McCloskey robbed,Gracia recently robbed, lost to Alvarado,Terence Crawford. Hialeah is his backyard and this should be a barn burner. Lawson by late KO or UD nevertheless, too young , moves and sticks has power ,if we know anything about Prescott he cant handle boxers, he can take punishment though.
