    Barring Prescott's "1 in 100" night against a novice Khan he's a borderline journeyman. McCloskey would beat him 10 out of 10.
    Although, I agree with you, none of it matters.

    The fight WOULD sell. You honestly telling me you wouldn't watch it?
    (I should start a poll).
    Yeah of course i'd watch it. I will watch Khan's next fight whoever the opponent is. I don't think avenging the loss is such a big deal though. There's an endless list of "great" fighters with blemishes on their record.

    Lennox rematched McCall because the vacant WBC title was on the line. And Rahman was an immediate rematch for all the titles. The opponent has to offer something.

    Prescott offers Khan nothing. I don't think it sells any better than the already mentioned possible opponents.

    With the proper marketing, I think it could sell better. Marketing a PPV to the casual fan, who doesn't realize the level of improvement by Khan, the rematch with Prescott has an easily exploited dramatic factor missing with all the other opponents.

    But the risk/reward factor might not be worth it. I'd agree that it could be a tough fight for Khan - if he let it.

    Pac didnt avenge his KO losses to bums and it hasnt affected his standing much but if I were Khan Id want to get a win over Prescott just to show how much I'd improved.

    Its a fighter pride and if someone blows you away in a round and continues to call you out and curse you in public, the problem isnt going to go away until you put it right. Khan should forget arguing about money against Peterson and Mcclosky etc and man up for a change. Put Prescot in his place then fight the Bradley - Alexander winner.

    Prescott does not deserve the chance against Khan, he has lost twice, but Khan seems desperate to get a fight with someone so it would make sense just to fill the April fight.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
