    How will khans next fight be unifcation do you understand how boxing works?

    He is fighting in april the brad/dev winner will not fight him after fighting in january.

    This fight aint pointless it makes the most money he avenges a defeat.

    Khan needs to prove it to himself not keyboard warriorshe obviously doesnt believe in himself as much as he says he does.

    The way he belitles prescott as if he aint nothing , he is kind of right but has he forgot that this nothing sparked him clean ****ing out in next to no time.

    Again, from a technical standpoint how does Prescott prepare Khan for the winner of Bradley/Alexander? It's not relevant whether Khan wants to face Prescott but whether he needs to and in the context of a massive unification fight & for the ring belt at 140lbs, Prescott is a complete & utter irrelevance.

    Who knows, maybe you'll get your wish and Khan will face Prescott before he moves upto 147lbs but as for facing Prescott now, it does nothing for his development as a boxer.

    You want to use the "money" excuse when you saw that all four of the possibilities are better opponents than Prescott.

    Khan/Mccloskey would make just as much money as any other fight, including Khan/Prescott.

    The point here is fighting the proper opponent to train yourself for the unification bout. :good

    How does McCloskey?


    I dont have a problem if he doesn't want to fight Prescott, that's his prerogative, but dont try and make up for the fact you dont want to fight him, by making out he's irrelevant, cause like I keep! pointing out, which is something you cant deny, Prescott makes him more money than any other tune up guy, can shape the opinion of the general public to enhance his reputation, is coming off a loss, so how does it make him irrelevant, but makes the likes of McCloskey plausible?

    Khan not wanting to fight Prescott doesn't mean he's making up excuses for it.

    Also, as I said previously, Khan/Mccloskey would easily make more money than Khan/Prescott, as it would get all of Ireland buying PPVs.

    Ridiculous!

    When Sky start playing the, revenge or repeat, making out Prescott is going to do the same thing to Khan again, it would be miles bigger than a fight with McCloskey, miles bigger. Look how they sold the Haye-Harrison fight, and Harrion hadn't previously rail roaded Haye, and the fans knew he was a bottler, I doubt they will of even seen Prescott's loss to Vasquez.

    It does when the circumstances contradict why he thinks he is not relevant, which is fighting a guy who brings less money to the table, doesn't already have a win over him that he could avenge.

    Your off your trolly then aren't you? Sky would hype the **** outta a Prescott -Khan fight, deep down you know it would be miles bigger.

    It's your assessment vs mine m8, neither one is more accurate than the other as we're not bookies.

    Khan/Mccloskey would be HUGE as GB/Ireland is always BIG.

    And don't call me a Troll, Gooners, I try to speak logically and practically as much as I can.

    "OMG Khan/Prescott would BE HUGE !!!" is not proper support for why it would be a bigger fight.

    I don't care much for Khan vs Presscot

    Your comment illustrates the type of Khan fans im rallying against, the ones with a self serving agenda.

    I mean who in their right mind thinks McCloskey would be as big, bigger than a Prescott rematch, answer? nobody, cause you dont believe it yourself.

    It was if you speak to 95% of Brits who want to defend Haye based on nationalism rather than realism, which is probably why there are so many people trying to legitimize Khan NOT fighting Prescott, whilst fighting a guy who brings even less to the table.

    The money excuse?

    Its out of khans very own mouth that these guys are apprantely overpricing themselves, prescott bring the most money out of kats peterson mcklockey and who ever else apart from the obvious champions.

    If you think mocloskey brings in the same money as khan then its clear you dont understand the business of boxing.

    You're on a wind-up aren't you? Money is not the priority here, preparation for Bradley/Alexander is. What does Prescott offer from a technical standpoint to help prepare Khan for a unification bout? ANSWER THE QUESTION!!!

    As for the perception of the great british public, who gives a f*ck?
