    I'm sure both him and his team know that Prescott's name will ALWAYS be an option and will ALWAYS be mentioned whenever Khan shows up. Whether Prescott remains undefeated won't even matter, they will target him sooner or later, it all depends on how Khan shows improvement and better performance.

    He ain't gonna come near Prescott again,maybe in 3-4 years not now.If he sees Prescott on the same side of the street with him he crosses the street

    We'll have to wait and see, I fully expect him to go after Prescott sooner or later if he's serious about getting a title shot.

    I'd like it to be Bobby Pacquiao but Amir Khan and Warren ain't fighting anybody outside of the UK which is a shame.

    Bobby Pac is a good C + grade opponent

    I think the Amir Khan fight proved that he's not a bum and can punch really hard, you can have mediocre skills and still go far with serious punching power. This win also boosts his confidence so I fully expect him to take advantage of it. Let's face it, the man went to Amir Khan's backyard as an underdog and an unknown yet still fought relaxed/confident and scored a quick KO over an undefeated highly regarded prospect without showing any mental weakness or discouragement.

    But yes, we will have to see how he does, even if he's proven to be an easy target for others he will still be looked at as a serious threat for Khan and a fighter he needs to rematch sooner or later.

    Urbano Antillon is a good up and comer and has a really good chance of stopping khan.

    I don't think that Prescott will go that far,what's he gonna do when he fights a guy like Juan Diaz or Casamayor or Marquez or even Katsidis or David Diaz?Khan losed to g uy who was and is unproven,Khan was indeed a good test but the hard stuff just begins

    he's no bum now, anyway he might turn out to be a decent talent, don't forget he's only 25 and anyone who KO'S 18 of 20 certainly ain't a bum. the word bum is used to often

    I'm just saying he isn't proven against a true elite LW,he will most likely lose to an elite LW
