What Happened to Breidis Prescott

[Rockybigblower]

He upset some very powerful people by almost derailing Khans career. He had to be shutdown and put in the background so that folks would be able to quickly forget that hiccup. If he stayed in the spotlight and got the shot in Khans place...then Khans career would have been over before it began. As stated by others.. management and promotion.

What happened? He lost, repeatedly. It's not management and promotion. It seems some people demand a conspiracy theory for everything. Prescott just didn't perform in the ring.

Two fights after Khan he lost a decision against Miguel Vazquez. It was a SD but he should have lost on all 3 cards. The fight after that was his real shot at being a name and he lost by a wide margin on the cards, spoiling his chance at the WBO lightweight title. Ironically, Khan won the super-lightweight title on the same card AND Billy Joe Saunders & Tony Bellew both fought early in their careers. Good card.

He then won a couple of fights but then got KO'd by Alvarado for a minor title. After that it was all downhill. He was a better-than-average fighter who happened to score a good punch against a named guy with a glass jaw. But in fights with better competition his limitations were repeatedly exposed.

Khan vs Prescott is still one of the biggest shocks I've seen in a boxing ring.
