Leon Margules of Warriors Boxing wishes to congratulate his fighter, super lightweight contender Breidis “The Khanqueror” Prescott (25-4, 20 KOs), for his KO 3 over Joel Cassiani at Coliseo Cubierto in Puerto Colombia, Colombia, on Friday night.

With the victory, Prescott, from Barranquilla, Colombia, and now living in Miami, Florida, climbed back in the victory column after two tough losses to top world-title contenders.

Prescott dropped a very debatable decision to highly-rated Irishman Paul McCloskey in Ireland last September and then, in November, was putting a beating on feared contender Mike Alvarado before running out of gas and getting caught in the last round on the Pacquio/Marquez undercard.

“Breidis needed a victory like this,” said a happy Margules, post-fight. “The bad decision to McCloskey and then running out of gas when he was hammering Alvarado were both disappointing setbacks, but a win like this will help him put it all back together.”

According to Margules, Prescott’s two losses said more for his worth as a top contender than several of his previous victories.

“Those were two elite contenders in the 140-lb division and Breidis beat McCloskey anywhere but Ireland and was putting a serious beating on Alvarado for most of their fight. If anything, it proves he belongs among the best of the best. We’ll be looking to put him in with another top opponent in the near future.”

Never short on words, Prescott says he continues his quest to once-again defeat UK former world champion Amir Kham (whom he destroyed via 54-second KO 1) and is also looking to face a number of other fellow super lightweight elites.

“If (WBA, IBF Champion and fellow Khanqueror) Lamont Peterson was down from Amir Khan’s powder-puff punches, he won’t wake up for a week from one of mine. Same thing goes for Marcos the Maiden (Maidana). If Khan can put you down, then I can put you to sleep. (WBO Champion) Timothy Bradley seems to have a long list of guys he’s afraid of. Am I another one? Ask him. I made a mistake against Alvarado in getting tired of hitting him. And McCloskey ran for his life and his neighbors, the judges, gave him the fight. These mistakes will never happen again. I want a title belt around my waist and no one can stop me ever again.”
