Prescott W Khan KO 1

The Amir express fell off the tracks badly last night with Khan on the receiving end of a massive upset and a thoroughly bruised ego. Although Prescott could clearly bang, the quality (or lack of) opposition he had faced before Khan gave little indication of his power at a world level. Arguably, his true power is still to franked - perhaps Khan's chin made it look good. Well done to those of you who went with Prescott in the early rounds.

Cook W Arthur UD

boxingbets.info did better with this one. Cook matched and, in the end, bettered his opponent and was a narrow but deserved winner. In truth, a late KO didn't look like happening, but 40/1 was worth a punt going into the fight, and a healthy 10/3 makes up for missing out on the biggie.
