    I give Khan credit for winning yesterday, however he did not beat the strongest world champion out there but he still got the win. I feel most of the credit should go to Roach as to how well he has trained Khan.

    However I am slightly disappointed at Khan focusin on a fight with Ricky Hatton. Hatton is finished, he has been KO'd twice and his last KO was brutal. Hatton has also just been in hospital on a drip from a unknown illness. Khan should forget about fighting Hatton as its a no gain huge loss situation, if Khan lost that fight it would destroy his credibility completely. The only way I feel Khan can silence the critics is to face the man that whoop'd his ass in less than a minute, even though Prescott lost the other day Khan needs to take this rematch, show he has balls, and most importantly WIN.

    Rematch with Prescott? All in good time my friend, all in good time.

    First he needs to rectify the minor blips in his game and get a few decent scalps under his name. Then he can be put in against the likes of Maidana, Ortiz and Prescott.

    The Hatton fight is a good choice, as his style is tailored for Khan. The Hitman is in no way finished, those losses simple proved he is not an elite level fighter. He'll provide a stern test, and enable Khan to learn a few things.

    Give it a year or two, and watch him emphatically outclass Prescott.

    After this week's events, I'd say Khan has well eclipsed Prescott in relevance.

    Does Pacquiao desperately need to rematch Torrecampo?

    I agree. Khan needs to rematch Prescott, as the kayo was swift, brutal and is still fresh in the memory. It was also bloody funny. Until he rectifies that emphatic loss, it will always be held against him. Credit for the win last night though.

    Khan has already passed the Prescott ghost.
    BP will be lucky if he get's to see AK again.
    (He had the ticket & blew it, Or should I say Vasquez did!) :bbb

    Khan needs Prescott like a hole in the head. That can be revisited later.

    Big money to retire Hatton or an easy mandatory is the next move.

    Its ironic that all the Khan haters cling to and cherish Prescott. He is the man who is responsible for Khan improving tenfold.

    Not ironic at all. Foolish perhaps, but ironic?

    Why would you let a 22 year old fight the strongest champion in the weight division for his fight title fight?
    :hi:

    Calling for a rematch is completely natural and completely reasonable. When you are a "champion" people want to see you face good tests, and fighting a guy that decimated you in seconds is probably the best there is.
