I think there must be a typo


according to boxrec,


johnny in march fought a fight at 199lb, then 3 months later took on henry cooper and weighed in at 261lb!!!! then 6 months later, prescott weighed in at 200lb!!!! did he really gain that much weight and then lose it again?????

It seems highly unlikely that his weight would fluctuate that much. Probably supposed to read 206 not 260, Especialy considering his weight in other fights.

Must be a typo error, Prescott never weighed that much though he was known as a bit of a playboy, but he was a very decent boxer with nice skills and never a 'fatty' at all... I doubt that he ever weighed more than 210 in his career at the most....

Johnny Prescott never looked like a heavy,more or light-heavy,when you see the photo`s from the 60`s seems way to slim up against big bruisers l.
