    Warren isn't going to let Prescott within a million miles of Khan. Ever.

    I don't think Prescott is in a position to call the shots on this to be honest, but if he gets active and winning perhaps he can position himself to take on another titleist and put a belt up as trade. Otherwise I can't see what's in it for Khan. It's not as if Prescott will bring a load of punters to PPV or an arena.

    I simply don't understand this nonsense about a Prescott rematch. If Prescott was some sort of name before the Khan fight then this might hold some sort of validity. We all know Khan has a glass chin, so if he lets Prescott punch him he will get KO'd again. So beating Prescott will not prove much about Khan what we dont already, rather it will tell us that Prescott got lucky and caught a glass jawed fighter with a few bombs.

    He seems like he'd want to avenge his defeat to me, we'll see.

    In his 21st fight Marco Antonio Barrera was fighting a 13-8 no mark called Esteban Ayala who went on to a career record of 13-16...in his 21st fight Amir Khan was fighting Marco Antonio Barrera. Sorry mate, but you are talking bollocks...at this comparable stage of their careers Khans record measures up extremely favourably to Barreras.

    Spot on.

    If Prescott makes a name for himself then Khan can avenge his defeat in a meaningful rematch with titles on the line, if Prescott just slips into history the way that I think he will then he will just appear as an exclamation mark on Khans career record...most fighters have one of those. Anyone remember Clinton Mitchell? thought not.

    It makes no business sense but proper fighters always want to avenge their defeats.

    Well I hope Kotelnik knocks Khan the **** out, the guy is just a paper boxer, you can only get so far with a papermache chin. He's a feckin idiot and so are the clowns who think he's the real deal. One more loss and hopefully he will retire, with a big red coupon:scaredas:

    Credit?? I dont think so. What for ducking the decent domestic lightweights, for running from the top lightweights in the World?? For jumping the WBA queue being backed by his sugar daddy Warren?? For calling Kol the worse World Champ and then agreeing to fight him and then saying he has always rated him??

    Only a mug would give this kid credit. The whole Khan situation makes a mockery of the sport and all the true champions in the past who have worked for their World Title.
