What Happened to Breidis Prescott

Seems like a talent that went wrong somewhere, wonder what he thinks about Crawford -v- The Dancer?

Talent or someone who got lucky with a glass jaw fighter

[_original_]

Journeyman at best, not that good but loved seeing him spark out Khan in the first round. He also launched Crawford's career, who took the fight on short notice and outboxed Prescott. Think this was the first time Crawford had been on the big stage.

Think he just didn't have the backing or the discipline, and guess he wasn't marketable. In all of his fights since Amir Khan, he has been the opponent in the majority of them. Beat Richar Abril in the fight before Khan in another upset, so eejits saying he got lucky showing they DKSAB as usual. Also got robbed against Miguel Vasquez the year after beating Khan. Vasquez went on to a shot at the vacant IBF title, while Prescott went to fight Kevin Mitchell in England.

He sparkled against Khan, over powered him. As for the career fail I'm betting management/training unless he got involved in unhealthy activities.

Shame he didn't receive a title shot after his win over Khan though. Khan himself got one 2 or 3 fights later. Prescott just got used as a trialhorse for other fighters needing to make their name. Boxing can seem very unfair sometimes, you're either marked out for stardom or you're not.

He's garbage that's what happened to him.

He's garbage that's what happened to him.

The thing is, its not like he beat kahn in some complicated chess match and landed a perfect shot, Prescott wailed on him and it worked. Period.

[KidDinamita]

Maybe he got ****y when he KOed Khan and didn't stay disciplined .. Which maybe he got lucky against Khan.

Khan doesn't have the best chins for sure, no secret about that..plus the fight didn't last long.

Yep! I became a fan of Crawford that night.
