Breidis Prescott vs Fredrick Lawson

[handsofstone]

FNF returns tomorrow night with this one which could be a good 'un

Prescott always comes to win,although he struggles against boxers,put him in with someone whose willing to have a tear up then he's great to watch,he pushed Roberto Garcia all the way last time out

I think I've only seen Lawson once which was against Ray Narh on the N'Dam-Stevens card and I can't really remember being bowled over,he's unbeaten in 23 though with 20 KO's so there could be fireworks

I'm expecting Breidis to have too much experience though and take it on points

[Taansend]

Prescott is in journeyman mode these days. He'd be great in a Matchroom Prizefighter tournament. The longer the fight hours the worse he gets.

I'll be honest, I have no idea about Lawson.

[handsofstone]

Ive seen Prescott in a few Snoozers TBF but hopefully Lawson's style should make for a decent watch

[crusader]

Prescott gave Alvarado and Ortiz very tough fights and I had him beating McCloskey, so while he's tended to fall short against good opposition I think he's shown that at a certain level he's a tough task. I haven't seen much of Lawson but based on what I have seen he hasn't impressed me and I can see him having significant problems tonight.

[crusader]

Good fight and a tough break for Prescott. I thought he clearly slipped and the ref calling it a KD ended up making the difference.

[Marky_Marc]

That's the thing with boxers who are under the radar so to speak.

I think Prescott could still knock Khan out today and give anybody a tough time. However, I imagine he's nowhere near the boxrec top 50.

Same with someone like joshua clottey, again ranked really low awhile back (due to inactivity i presume) but would clear up most of the top 10. It's funny how some boxers are just as good but completely avoided or given no attention.

I agree about Clottey I think he still a top guy even at 54 he just wont get the opportunites after that Pacquaio fight. He beat Mundine, Judah easy and almost beat Cotto. I think Prescott power did move up with him and he's a better boxer than I would have thought but he can no longer of the Khan win I never knew why Khan didnt go back for rematch.

[handsofstone]

I had it 95-94 Lawson with the wrongly awarded KD proving crucial,as well as being a slip from Prescott the right hand from Fredrick landed behind the head

It was a decent fight though, a faster start from Breidis would have edged him the fight ,Lawson had a bit of a lull in the middle rounds
