If Prescott can demolish McCloskey in devastating fashion and with realtive ease he has every right to hassle Khan for a rematch belt or not.

If McCloskey wins in good style he will at least be able to pester Khan for a rematch but i don't see it happening for a while i think he will be expected to get a couple more decent wins under his belt to force the issue.

Should be an entertaining fight.

Good for prescott~!!!
if he wins, maybe chicken hearted Khan will give him a Rematch, like he should have done long ago!!! that avoiding him and pretending it didnt happen is BULLSHIT, and is what is wrong with boxing.

Wrong am i? :p

Good matchup for the winner to claim a fight with Khan, although it seems Amir has his next 3 fights lined up, Judah, Morales, Brooks and Floyd (if they can sort out the steroids issue.

I love how McCloskey promised he'd KO Khan, put forward a performance so inert that it made Audley Harrison look like Manny Pacquiao, showed fuck all resistance when the doctor stopped it, yet somehow walks away with a load of credit. The idea his whole gameplan was to wait till the later rounds, particularly considering he was getting his head rocked all over the shop by Khan in the 5th & 6th rounds, is laughable. He spent the whole fight just stepping back out of range & occasionally winged a right hook into air.

I think he can probably take a decision against Prescott in Ireland, because quite frankly Prescott is an absolute terror of a fighter for about 4 rounds until he gets gassed. But, I really do hope McCloskey gets put on his arse after that £15 he stole from me with his shite performance.

Doesn't really say much about McCloskey that Con seemed to be going at 80% against him yet was still winning all the rounds

Prescott will be totally clueless against the switching and angles. McCloskey at home can quite simply fiddle his way to victory.

If Khan couldn't take him out wide winging predictable Prescott has no hope.

Exactly, Mitchell put down the blueprint to beat Prescott, McCloskey has the savvie to do what Mitchell done if not better !

Miguel Vazquez put down the blueprint. Not Mitchell

I'm hoping Carl Frampton gets on the under card. I really want to see more of him.
