http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Bm0QN1RYm5Y&feature=related start watching after 5.37, he's the guy in the white in the corner. if he was clapping then its makes me wonder, was he set up by rubio lol, as crazy as it sounds, dont forget he's the one who recommended this opponent for khan.
Khan was set up. Who cares though, it has happened now. Lets face it, before the fight, when looking at prescotts record we all saw he had fought nobodies only in colombia bar 1, so what was the risk? The risk was an over hyped chinless wonder who was built up to be a world champion but who IS actually barelly capable of being the best in the UK. Those are the facts and thanks to our Colombian friend they have been revealed.
It was two hand claps to say "Come on, get up!". Hardly a round of applause. Rubio was Khan's trainer and his boy got starched. Rubio's reputation as a trainer is now in question. It's possible that certain people were led to believe Prescott was not as good as he actually was, but I can't see why Rubio would make himself look such a twat on purpose.
Rubio may have been very good friends with prescott and may re appear as prescotts trainer in his next fight. If he is re apears as prescotts trainer then we all know what is going on. However it does not change the obvious, regarding Khans abilities and training regime since turning pro.
this is an old trick when a guy is knocked down like that clapping can sort of snap them out of the daze they are in didnt work for khan though he was too ****ed
Rubio was just a cheap option for a trainer who was prepared to come to the Uk for very little money. He has NO track record at all as a pro and I pointed this out when they brought him over to much derision. He has three fighters back home (miami) and all had suffered KO losses in recent years. This defensive genius hilarity was just a smoke screen to cover the real reason why he was brought in, because he was cheap... and wouldn't involve a relocaion or tons of cash. Rubio probably expected that a fighter of Khans amateur pedigree would have being good enough to beat a raw puncher like Prescott. Lets be fair Khan was caught cold, he made an unusually aggresive start and walked onto a couple of shots that he wasn't physically ready to take... Down goes Khan, out goes the trainer, in comes the excuses lol... That the Khan camp have shifted blame onto the trainer is another display of their short sightedness. Brilliant stuff.
Apparently Prescott had already stomped someone Rubio trained, Should have known better ! Bunceys column in BM has a good description of the night !
Yeah stomped was a figure of speech, I hadn't seen the fight. Still he must have known something about him , maybe he didnt know enough about Khan ?
