Lyle will prob miss that because i doubt if it will be shown in Wlads asshole
Mark TKO was saying it from day one and so was Saddo...
I even remember the guv telling anyone who'd listen that if you think Khan is the next big thing then your in for a shock.
I don't mind admiting i had high hopes for him but after the Limond fight knew myself it was a matter of time and let's be honest if Prescott done that to him then what hope has he got against the real top dogs in the division![]()
Tell you what i noticed that had me worried before the fight...
Khan was interviewd before the Audrey fight and said "yeah i have a gameplan and i've done my homework, watched dvd's of him etc etc" and he looked a little nervous to me....
30 mins before the fight they interviewed him again and he was grey in colour and looked and sounded as if he had flu (NOT making any excuses but he didn't appear all their) and said the total opposite to what he did earlier..
"Well i've been down before and i can recover fast if knocked down etc
He looked like a scared little boy.
Then when he appeared before he started his ringwalk he looked absolutely terrified almost as if he knew he was gonna get a beating and looked to me very reluctant to get in the ring at all.
Seen it so many times when fighters lose there head during that walk..
Lacy was shitting footballs when he walked in against Calzaghe and never got out of first gear.
Maybe it's the bowl like MEN itself that has that effect on fighters (anyone who's been will know what i mean) i don't know.
Why Khan engaged him centre ring from the off was beyond me too as he knew he could bang and he showed inexperience by stumbling toward Prescott again after the first KO (should have been stopped then imo as he was all over the shop).
Bottom line is that Prescott is a murderous puncher and for all the skill Khan posseses it was only a mtter of time during that fight till Prescott caught him so better it happened that way than get the kid seriously hurt.
I hold my hands up and got Khan wrong and was somewhat swept up in the Hype (maybe a sideline of meeting and interviewing him before he turned pro..i liked him , he was a nice kid and he was British and we don't often get talent like that over here on our small island)
Bad luck Amir and i'm sure he'll bounce back but as the same fighter...Hmmmmm big ask!!
Great point about Degale Mark.
