Khan vs Prescott II

[ElTerribleMorales]

lets say the fight happens, and by a freak punch Prescott wins again, how much does Khan's stock drop?

(IMO Khan stops him quick in a rematch)

[Mark TKO]

they may just be the old 'Prescott has Khan's number' argument. Remember reading something similar when Forrest beat Moseley.


I reckon Khan stops Prescott within 6 rounds in rematch

i wouldn't be shocked to see him get him out of there quickly either

but IMO losing again to Prescott would be a big blow to Khan's career

[Mark TKO]

definitely

probably why he doesn't seem in a rush to take it.

I never buy the old 'am out of his league now so pointless' argument . When a guy has knocked you clean out in 54 seconds it's an insult.

Khan, IMO, absolutely wastes Prescott in a rematch without hardly breaking sweat. When he fought Mitchell, once he'd been boxed well for 4 or 5 rounds he completely gave up all hope and idea. A now well schooled Khan beats him into submission inside 6 or 7 rounds.....

[ono]

If Khan survives the first 3 or 4 rounds he should win easily. He'll probably even stop Prescott.

But if Prescott rushes him right form the opening bell, Khan could be in trouble. He is a much better fighter than the one that was knocked out, but he still looks awkward and off balance under pressure. When a guy is winging haymakers at you, the last thing you want to do is be off balance.

Khan is much more talented than Prescott. But he needs to careful.

i agree, but what do you think another loss to Prescott would do to Khan's career?

IMO it could really take a blow, seeing how the first loss put a lot of questions in his head, a lot of doubt to the point that he changed his entire corner, i don't know if he'd bounce back and capitalize on his full potential

I don't know to be honest. On one hand i feel it would obviously damage it, but on the other hand i understand that he will most probably get ko'd again at some stage of his career. He is a ticket seller, and i don't think that change too much for him in England. I don't know how he would be seen across the pond.

I suppose he is still very young, so even if he did get ko'd again by Prescott, i do feel he could come back. I don't think the question marks over his chin are ever going to go away to be honest. Should mean he will always be in exciting fights though.

well i mean his chin is better than most gave him credit, as seen against Maidana, but it's nowhere close to being solid lol

If prescott beat Khan again especially if it was by KO I would piss my self laughing about ten times over.

I would love to see Miles reaction the next time Khan get's sparked. I think it would be similar to Jose Murinho

[ICB]

Amir Khan is getting overrated, he hasn't improved that greatly. He still has some serious defensive flaws, and he was rocked by Marcos Maidana early on, i think Breidis Prescott could easily win again.

All the great champions avenged defeats.

It is something I, personally, would want to finally put to bed.

He will be remembered for that defeat as much as he will be remembered for winning titles. It's a fact. When people think of Amir Khan, that 54 secs ko is what people first think of.

It will always be brought up, even for years to come - unless he takes a rematch, stops him quickly (which he would do within three rounds imo) and people could, with fair dues, say it was a fluke.

No they didn't. There's a huge list of "great" fighters with unavenged losses.

Lets start with - Hopkins, Tyson, Pac, Marquez, Duran.. it's endless.

Well they should've then...
