    Hell,

    How did McCloskey get that verdict?

    I got to the fight late, and only saw glimpses of the final two rounds - which looked to be McCloskey's.

    But by the sound of things, Prescott was unlucky tonight.

    Was it a major robbery? What can it be compared to?

    115-112 Prescott.

    Gave him rounds 1,2,3,5,6,7 and 12.

    Has a fight ever gone to decision where a similar thread like this didn't appear on ESB? You guys think every decision is a robbery.

    Kinda saw that coming. Prescott impressed me though, he started using the jab a lot more and he dominated at times with it.

    and the commentators had the nerve to claim there was nothing controversial about the results.

    british boxing is full of pricks.

    I thought Prescott won it! 7-5 (115-112 with the knockdown)

    i had this fight 117-111 to prescott. it was a robbery. no way in hell did mccloskey deserve the decision. he looked like absolute ****... he didn't throw many punches (like in the khan fight) and those he did throw, he missed most of.

    total disgrace.

    blame the irish you twat, not the british. the commentators did get it badly wrong, though.

    you're still a twat.

    How? I'd pick Khan. A lot of people felt Khan was KD'd in the second against McKloskey and we all saw how he faded against Maidana. If anything it's shown Presscott would have a chance.

    Prescott was robbed for sure... and i feel very sorry for him because he wont get another chance. Performing like he did in someones home town took a lot of guts.
