I'm hoping to see Khan get knocked out - thats when of course he is back on TV for free.

Because I will not be buying this Frank ****** rip off.

Paying £15 to see a Commonwealth Champion on TV - pure greed.

But there is more fighters on the bill aint there

Alex Artur???? - I'm not sure - even if he is - paying £15 to see a paper champion fighting on the telly - ****** is stooping low here

I'll be watching it on a stream, its not a bad card when you get past the PPV issue.

whats it to you who orders the fight? :roll:

i am not happy with this fight being on ppv and certainly not gonna buy it however prescott is a worthy opponent for khan at this stage in terms of skill. the reason he isnt worthy is cos khan is talking about a world title shot in his next couple of fights. i mean talk about taking the easy route.

prescott is reasonably good, have a look at his last fight on youtube, he keeps his hands up, counters fast, and has power

It seems clear that this is the only reason they have brought in a so called puncher...

They know that nobody will buy this farce otherwise!

There has to be at least a small chance Khan will lose to entice people to part with their cash for this...and most now know of Khans dodgy beard..

Homer Simpson would be more of a test for Khan than this bumHomer is an experienced street fighter. He can fight dirty and has an iron chin. If Drederick Tatum couldn't put him over, then Khan has no chance.

Homer Simpson KO9

Nah, that prescott would easily outjab Khan.

As for the card being good, haven't most of those fights been removed? The Harrison and Paul Smith fights?

The card has fallen apart completely now. Another one bites the dust. Loved the article mate.... so funny. :rofl

Im going to buy it for two reasons. The first is that fifteen quid is either here nor there. I can spend more than that on four drinks when ona night out which are equally as dissapointing and lasta helluva lot less. The second reason is so I can say "I saw it" when he finally falls. Im hoping Prescott is another Ricardo Torres, but I fear he could be more Fernando Torres.
Tried live streaming, great aside form the jittery moments, broken sound and sitting in front of a tiny screen squinting to see the action.

Live observations

I like his lead right to the body.... No chance he'll land it on Khan.
He's open to lead rights to the head because he's so immobile.
The other kid boxed like Zelenoff
He doesn't jab effectively at all.
Lunges off balance.
Does look heavy handed.
No accuracy.
Open to jab.
Good a closing the ring down.

I'm going to the MEN to watch it. It's annoyed me how the Harrison Rogan and Paul Smith Steve Bendall fights fell through, the packed card was one of the reasons I bought a ticket! A little dissapointed in Khan's opponment too. If Sky Sports made you believe what they wanted to you'd think that Frank has decided to pitch his prized boy in with an undefeated power punching Columbian who lives in a world class boxing gym, who is also bigger than Khan and a well known in America. In reality Frank wouldn't take a risk like that with one of his fighters unless it was for a World title. I don't mind them promoting a fighter, but another domestic opponment would have been fine. At least we could then rate how good the victory was afterwards rather than not really having a clue. Might wait a bit longer next time before getting a ticket (had to decide early on because it was for a birthday present)! If Prescott knocks Khan out then Frank ****** has been stupid, and stupid he is not. Khan is not getting knocked out by this guy. Bookies are gunna make a bomb. Wouldn't mind being wrong!

Surely bookies wont make a bomb if Khan wins? How many will bet against him (aside me) ?

You say "Khan is NOT getting knocked out by this guy" - If Limmond and (super featherweight) Gomez can have khan all over the show is it impossible that this guy could?

Chances are he'll freeze like lawton did though.

One of my friends who is a casual fan has bought into the Sky marketing and he is like "Khan's getting knocked out" Theres more mainstream fans than us on here.

Edit: regarding Khan getting knocked out, nothing is impossible but it's very unlikely! I would piss myself laughing if he did though

To be fair, Khan's fights are always entertaining and this one should be more so than most.

I'm still not buying it though.

If Gomez and Limmond can do what they did to him, and this guy can actually whack (which we dont really know) then he'll be down at least. Khan has never faced a puncher, let alone one at his own weight, yet he's been on queer street more times than michael barrymore.

Come on two jabs, deck him.

I will not be paying to see it but I will be interested in the round by round and waiting patiently for Prescott to drop that hammer like punch onto Khans iron jaw just read how amazed people are of Amir Khan and his greatness.

Why ???

The guy can bang, Khan has poor punch resistance. It's not rocket science. If the guy comes with a bit of ambition he could make it hard for Khan.

Prescott is an unknown/unbeaten Columbian with a high KO ratio. Perfect choice to whip people up into a PPV frenzy. Is he honestly as dangerous as his record suggests? If he was, then Khan wouldn't be allowed anywhere near him.
Remember, this isn't a career topping mega fight for Khan, it's just the start of a potential string of PPVs. If Khan were to lose against this unknown novice, it's all over.

This Prescott guy has virtually no chance whatsoever. Trust me on this.

The only "PPV frenzy' being whipped up is people who are mad about it being PPV. I really think this is going to bomb, the boxing fans won't buy it and its just not a big enough fight for the casual fans (who arn't all as stupid as some people think!).

the boxing fans won't buy it and its just not a big enough fight for the casual fans (who arn't all as stupid as some people think!).

As a PPV event I actually believe this will be extremely successful. Khan has been a household name since the 2004 Olympics. He has been hyped beyond belief, and people have got used to watching him fight on ITV. The casual fans have been hooked in and will pay for this event in their droves.

As for the boxing fans, there's already been a fair few people on here who have said they will pay for it. Many plan to pay for it, but won't openly admit it. Many say they won't pay, but will change their mind come fight night. It's human nature.

Closer to fight time there will be talk of how this Prescott guy is well up for it, and has looked fantastic in training. So called "people in the know" will spread the word that a potential upset is on the cards unless Khan is in top form. This will ensure a boost in PPV sales, and the event will be a massive success.

We'll see, the figures will be interesting. If the take up is good then ****** has his mandate to make every Khan fight a PPV.

Thats the way I see it. Virtually no one is talking about this fight. I'm the fight fanatic in my family/ crowd who are all sports/ casual boxing fans and nobody is mentioning it to me like they do with the big fights.
