Sack Warren!Originally posted by Chris View PostIt's ****ing sickening, sky are already giving it the "Prescott is a huge puncher" "unbeaten" bla bla bla when lets be honest Frank Warren will have had him checked out enough to know he poses no threat, he's not stupid, this kids record is padded with wins against boxers who have never even won!!! Khan is not even proven as the best in Britain yet due to avoiding other fighters and yet here we are with him on pay per view fighting a nobody, incredible.

He should of done but didnt! It'll be interesting to see how this fella does now, was he the lucky one who finished what Gomez and Limond couldnt or is he actually good himself. Warren blamed most of it on Rubio, saying he recommended Prescott. A bizarre story.Originally posted by Helios Creed View PostSack Warren!

I was watching the boxing hour on Friday on Setanta, and the experts were saying that Prescott is nowhere near top class, far from it. Prescott was stepping up a weight for this and he's only fought once in 12 months. They gave him no chance...Originally posted by -V- View PostYou can only learn from fighting proper tough opponents. We often criticize his management for putting him up against nobodies who can't fight so we cant blame them for this fight. He had it coming, i blame his management for over-hyping Khan but then thats how they make their money.
I seen this coming a mile off, it was obvious Prescott was dangerous but it was the right fight at the right time. Khan will now realise how much work he needs to do and it can only help him.
Its known Khan has a glass jaw, and its been rumoured that they've tried to milk as much money as possible because of this because it was only a matter of time before this actually happened and the bubble burst....well, it happened a lot quicker.
For those complaining about the Sky deal, well, apparently this is what had to be done because of the amount of money that Khan and his family were demanding per fight (£350,000 according to this guy on Setanta).
Bye bye Khan.

According to the experts, Prescott is not actually very goodOriginally posted by liverpooltj View Post****ing funny that ****. HAHA to anyone who paid £15 for that. I knew he would get beat. It was the first good fighter he has come across and has just been floored. Get your ass back to ITV khan and leave sky to the big boys

How much did Prescott get? His family looked like they really need the money - scary place he lived in...Originally posted by FatTony View PostI was watching the boxing hour on Friday on Setanta, and the experts were saying that Prescott is nowhere near top class, far from it.

No idea m8, but the £350,000 demanded by Khan is supposed to be stupidly high for a fighter of his limited experience.Originally posted by Helios Creed View PostHow much did Prescott get? His family looked like they really need the money - scary place he lived in...

Is this a wind up? Hatton was proven the best light Welterweight in the world and went up to challenge a 5 weight world champion and the greatest boxer of recent years. Amir Khan got his arsed handed to him within 50 seconds against a fighter who hadn't beaten anybody of note. All after declaring he's "ready for Pacquiao" "i'll be a world champ within a year" etc, of course Khan will get more grief.Originally posted by Ben Tover View PostI'm wondering where does all the stick come from. Both get knocked yet Hatton is applauded for his bravery and courage yet Khan is mocked.

Have to agree with you there.Originally posted by Chris View PostIs this a wind up? Hatton was proven the best light Welterweight in the world and went up to challenge a 5 weight world champion and the greatest boxer of recent years.

There is just an underlying, slightly uncomfortable feeling that people are happy he got knocked out because of the colour of his skin and his ethnic origin - certainly some individuals on this forum have all but admitted this.
Last night I said Khan should retire, but having heard the general backlash I now hope from the bottom of my heart that he gets back to basics and proves he can fight again.
I don't think he can ever be world class, however he certainly proved that he is able to beat the best on these shores, a fact that most of the bigots seem to have forgotten."Its not about the long ball or the short ball, its about the right ball." Bob Paisley
