    What you think guys? I know McCloskey is very slippery but I dont think his chin would of ever been hit by any one like Prescott. If he gets Ko'd which is very possible how would you then rate Mitchell after his new spring of life?

    It wouldn't matter. For example, Prescott's win over Khan now means even less in a way because of how crap Khan was then compared to now.

    It'd probably help kickstart Prescott's career though.

    It would prove that McCloskey is **** after all.

    Realistically he needs to beat Prescott without losing a round, preferably getting him out of there in the late rounds.

    This, although a wide decision win would suffice, Prescott does appear fairly durable at 135, realistically he has faced average hitting 135lbers though; McCloskey is a bigger bloke and should aim for better.

    McCloskey isn't Mitchell or Vasquez. It's just assumed he's going to do something similar but I don't think thats the case. Both of them had qualities Paul does not.

    Prescott should win going anything by McCloskey's last performance and ripping off the people and then saying how he was robbed, maybe he is that ****ed he should not be boxing anymore,

    i think mccloskey upper body movement will give prescott hell,
    prescott throws ragged and wide shots, mcclosky will make him look an idiot

    I dont think its going to be easy for McCloskey at all! In terms of skill how can any one say McCloskey is good? He swang his upperbody around like a drag queen hunting ****! His foot movement was ****! well he had no foot movement! and he carries no power! I'm going to root for Prescott on this one plus Prescott and Maidana has fireworks written all over it and a fight i can see being made!

    Prescott will cause McCloskey lots of problems and i think he will beat him quite comfortably
