</p> ...can't believe how many people are missing the punch that won the fight. Clue - it was neither of those that put him down.</p> And that could happen to any fighter at any point in any fight although it's more of a danger before an inexperienced fighter has settled into the fight. Had it happened the other way, and it easily could have, the boxing experts on these pages would have been hailing him as a world-beater.</p>
Tell the truth Windy If it had happened the other way round there's no way people would have called him a World beater, they would have just slated both Kahn and Warren for picking an unknown fighter who, despite having an undefeated record, had a lack of experience at Kahn's level. Prescott was picking Kahn off at ease in the first 25 seconds with the jab. If Kahn was an experienced pro when he got hit the first time, before the punch that knocked him down, he would have gone onto one knee, taken an 8 count, then carried on and boxed the rest of the round out. However when he first got hurt he stood straight, toe to toe, and then got knocked down. Only to be foolishly allowed to fight on again by the referee.
