    gets a fight against barrera which leads to a world title fight.

    But breitus prescott who laid that glass jawed mug out in a round doesnt get these opportunities another showing of politics and money!

    Frank Warren, corruption, and casual moronic fans buying the hype. STILL buying the hype when the guy has been exposed as a fraud countless times. You don't become a great by fighting shot midgets all your career though, he has to beat some great fighters, trouble is, he can't. So don't sweat it.

    Did you not read anything I wrote to you in the last forum? I'm not explaining who Frank Warren is and how promoters operate again. Why so much hate for the guy? Grow up.

    More money invested in Khan so he remains more popular despite the loss. One thing confusing me is how Prescott seems to be ignored more and more like he never existed. They don't mention him or the fight with Khan anymore.

    Khan isn't Kotelinks mandatory - you could look at it the other way and say Kotelink is getting a big pay-day for fighting a hype job if that sounds better for you.

    Frank Warren.... Look a little deeper, Warren signed Prescott after the Khan fight, made sure he faded into obscurity and made sure Khan got a brilliant win on paper over Barrera.

    Frank Warren, Frank Warren, Frank ****ing Warren.

    Excellent point.

    I know he signed Prescott. Maybe I expected him to promote Prescott more to set up a future rematch rather than drown him and continue to build Khan, should have seen it coming.

    Much more money and hype and opportunity surrounding Khan, no way could Warren control Prescotts people and his fans like he has Khans.

    So downplay the loss, get him a win over Barrera, and voila, Khan is world class future P4P ATG legend again....

    Wasent Prescott caught up in some promotional problems or something. **** it, it was good business by Warren to get Khan a shot at a title
