    I watched it. It spoke more to Prescott's flaws at that time than Mitchell's strengths.

    And Prescott looked like turd. So turd he was earmarked as Khan's next opponent. Sadly Khan was **** poor at that stage with a truly awful chin and no skills whatsoever.

    After Khan, Prescott needed to bite a blown up super bantam midget.

    What the **** are you on about now? I can see you're going to be a great addition to the forum.

    So we can gauge how much of a mong you are, who would win, Floyd Mayweather or Prime Tyson?

    Anyways, **** knows why the link didn't open, it was to the General Forum :hi:

    Beat Whitaker, Quartey, Trinidad (if you trust your eyes), Vargas, Mosley in the rematch (terrible decision)...

    Also consider the guys he lost to were, generally, the top of the top. Oscar was a ****ing great fighter. He didn't lose to a no-mark like Kevin Mitchell!

    No, I think you have. Oscar lost close, debatable fights to hall of fame fighters and elite talents. That happens when the best fight the best.

    That in no way, shape or form compares to Prescott, Mitchell, etc who have lost to lower tier guys. A top contender should beat Katsidis relatively comfortably. Even lower quality A-level guys like Juan Diaz handled Katsidis.

    youd think thats what the word journeyman means but it isnt, the word journeyman means a jack of all trades, decent at a lot of things but spectacular at nothing

    Mitchell's Euro level at best. Katsidis is a contender, he'll give the best guys a good fight, but won't win. The elite will stop him, ala Casamayor and Marquez.
