Is Breidis Prescott The New Hitman Hearns ?

[denilson200]

You know for all the anti khan rhetoric and all the smug 'I told you so' and the 'He ain’t got no chin' brigade that has been said in here, maybe, just maybe he got beaten by a fighter/puncher in the lighter weight divisions of the kind we have not seen since hitman hearns was around. I can remember as an 8 year kid in 1980 watching Alan Minter supposedly going through a routine defence against some unknown American. He was stopped in 3 savage round on cuts, people were stunned and shocked, fans rioted, they couldn't believe that anyone could do this Minter. Who was this unknown guy ? Well unfortunately for Minter that unknown American was called Marvin Hagler....and the rest as they say is history.

So maybe the same the fate will happen to Prescott, the next Mayweathers, DLH's, RJJ's. Hopkins, Calzgahe's, Barrera's have to come from somewhere. Maybe in all this getting on Khan's back, maybe he was beaten by a sensational fighter....in the same mould and punching power of the Hitman himself.

Its possible that Khan got beat by the second coming of whoever you like. Wrong place wrong time as the sky boys said.

Odds are though that Prescott isnt that good, has a decent clump and Amir just cannot get hit in the head without it scrambling his senses.

Watch Prescott's previous fight it was aired in the US, he's what I would classify as a good fighter, definately not great. All that happened here was that Khan got caught, period. Prescott does hit hard, but to classify him as the second coming is definately going overboard. He couldn't hold a candle to Hearns.

this has to be a wind up surely ? he is a goodish fighter at best with good power and thats it.

Is he Fook!

That's funny though.

hearns no the only person that reminds me of hearns is paul williams and thats because of the height an the way he jabs. prescott reminds me of ricardo torres they both just have pure power it would be cool to see them fight

[Markusdarkus]

Ive heard Prescott is one of the best Lightweights today!



















Over 4rds!

If he could keep the pace and pressure up for 12rds a future champ for sure. Needs to get out of Columbia and get training hard.

I don't know shiet about Prescott other than what I seen the other day against Khan. I did not see anything in Prescott that would remind me of Thomas Hearns. The fact that Prescott has beat nothing but bums and complete unkwons, does not sell me on anything other than he is doing what he is posed to be doing against such opposition and beating Khan is not the exception either. Who the phuk was khan? Clearly not anyone I myself was excited about.

If anyone recalls Apollo Creed when he looked sharp against Balboa? Now that is what Thomas Hearns is like Sharp, fast amazing jab that can only be mimicked in a Hollywood film
Like I said before, I did not see squat about Prescott that would remind me of the ring poet Thomas Hearns.



While Tommy did indeed remind people of a Cobra, I think Prescott reminded me more of that creature from Aliens, however, there might be a little snake in Prescott somewhere here and there.

lol

[leggy]

we have only seen 1 minute of the bloke !

As the saying goes "you can only beat whats in front of you" and Prescott easily disposed of Khan. He might be a great in waiting, he may be a poor boxer with a big punch. Only time will tell.
