    He would only have to land one shot, and that is why no matter how much Khan improves, he will always get beat by Prescott. You have to be able to take one power shot from a guy you expect to beat or be some kind of ridiculously good Pernell Whitaker impersonator. Khan surely isn't that.

    Watch the left hook about 20 seconds into this that put Khan on ***** street.

    It wasn't a looping windmill punch the way some people now try and make out, there is no way Khan should expect to go through an entire fight without getting caught with something similar.

    Khans always been brave. Khan would win the rematch IMO because he'd definately be wary of Prescott and would just outbox him.

    If its early in your career it happens, you want revenge. Although hopkins never fought Jones when he had the chance :think

    Wrong, straight after the fight during the Lewis interview Mike and Lewis were sat together being all pally and Tyon said he'd like a rematch and Lewis didn';t say Yes or No really, just avoided the question

    Khan maybe too brave for his own good like how he got up and tried to fight on instead of move and hold when Prescott brutally knocked him down first time.
    He has nothing to gain, if he wins so what he beat an unproven fighter. If he looses its starting all over again like 6-7 months ago.

    Manny never avenged his two early knockout losses. Hey Wladimir Klit never avenged his brutal embarrassing loss to a retired boxer\full time golfer Corrie Sanders. Bhop never avenged his early first fight defeat either. Khan should just move on with his career. And if he meets Prescott down the road well so be it and deal with it then which I feel they will meet again.

    good move if you ask me.

    Remeber vazquez vs larrios1 Izzy ko'd him in 1 round. larrios fought him latter down the road and stopped him in 12. then in the rubber match izzy got the tko in 3(i think:huh). but anwyas . you get the point just cuz your bblasted out in 1 round doesn't mena you can't do better or possibly win the 2nd time around
