I watched the fight and in no other way, you can tell me that win by Lawson was controversial. It was only the 4th 5th and 6th rounds that was won by Prescott. It was a great much. Lawson proved his worth, he just needs to fight experienced boxers and he had one yesterday here in south Florida. He really won the fight. Look at the face of Prescott .It tells the whole story.

So last night we learnt everything we need to know about Federick Lawson so far, that he was young, can box, has a punch BUT IS NOT READY FOR A WORLD TITLE YET. Lawson who is 25 real Ghanaian years, was hurt a couple of times, stayed off plan in the middle rounds.Prescott of Amir Khan knockout fame can brawl but does not do well with boxers, as we can see from his looses with Alvarado,Terence Crawford,Kevin Mitchel. Lawson tried to engage certain times instead of boxing which nearly cost him the fight. Ghanaians should always remember that 11 of lawsons 20 knockouts were to people of extreme loosing records. What we know is he is still learning , has a good Chin because Prescott can punch and is no joke. Prescott the smaller man nearly won the fight and the knockdown which was not real, saved Lawson. He blamed his performance on the weather , which could be a factor, Miami is hot, California is cold and Lawson didn't get to Maimi early enough to Acclimatize. Nevertheless, he can jab alittle like IKE QUARTEY and is a full fledge big welterweight like JOSHUA CLOTTEY, but hes no AZUMAH NELSON. With that being said, Im still happy he won, LETS GO RED,GOLD,GREEN....

The report is sketchy. Whats is Lawson age, fight record? Where does he live? Where does he train? How can we assess him? The report is elementary

1. GENERAL OKUNKA MAKES SILLY JUVENILE MISTAKES.
LAWSON SHOULD GO TO THE BODY MORE IN THE EARLY ROUNDS. LOTS OF FIGHTERS DONT ATTACK THE BODY ESPECIALLY IN THE EARLY ROUNDS OF FIGHTS. BODY SHOTS ARE LIKE COMPOUND INTEREST ON A BANK ACCOUNT. AS THE FIGHT WERS ON, THE FIGHTER TAKING THE BODY SHOTS GETS WEAKERS AND WEAKER AND DROPS THEIR HANDS. LEAVING THEIR FACE WIDE OPEN LIKE PUSSY. HAD OKUNKA ATTACKED PRESCOTT'S BODY EARLY IN THIS FIGHT. HE WOULD HAVE DROPPED PRESCOTT. NIGGA, OSUMOOR BODY SHOTS ALOO?
2. WHEN LAWSON IS BACKED INTO A CORNER. HE TENDS TO STAY THERE AND FIGHT BACK. THATS A TERRIBLE THING TO DO. WHEN CORNERRD, LAWSON SHOULD EITHER COVER UP AND DEFEND AND THEN RELEASE AN UPPERCUT OR BODY SHOT TO STOP THE PRESSURE AND THEN GET OUT OF THE CORNER. THATS THE SMARTEST THING TO DO. THAN THROWING WILD PUNCHES WHICH LEAVES YOU WIDE OPEN. ALI DONT EVEN FIGHT BACK WHEN HE IS IN THE CORNER, NEITHER DOES MAYWEATHER. HE PLAYS THE ROPE A DOPE, RELEASES A CRUSHING UPPERCUT OR BODYSHOT AND HE MOVES AWAY...
3.THAT WAS A CLEAR KNOCK DOWN. PRESCOTT' KNEE TOUCHED THE CANVAS AND HE ALSO HELD UNTO THE ROPES. CLEAR KNOCK DOWN. IN BOXING, YOU ONLY GET A WARNING, AND THEN DUCKED POINTS IF YOU KEEP HITTING THE BACK OF YOUR OPPONENTS HEAD OVER AND OVER.LAWSON DID IT ONCE AND IT WASNT INTENTIONAL, SO IT COUNTS AS A KNOCK DOWN.
4.LAWSON TENDS TO DAYDREAM WHEN THE FIGHT IS GOING HIS WAY OR WHEN HIS JABS ARE FLOWING. NIGGA, KEEP YOUR HEAD AND ATTENTIVENESS IN THE FIGHT UNTIL YOUR OPPONENT IS KNOCK OUT, KWASIA! IN THE 3RD RD OF THIS FIGHT, I SAW LAWSON IN A JAB STANCE LEAD WITH A RIGHT HOOK. PRESCOTT TIME HIM AND REPLIED WITH A RIGHT FLUSH WHICH STUNNED LAWSON. PRESCOTT WASNT EXPECTING LAWSON TO THROW A RIGHT HOOK IN THAT STANCE. LAWSON WAS DAY DREAMING IN THE FIGHT....
5. LAWSON MUST WORK ON HIS ENDURANCE AND DISCIPLINE IN THE RING. HE REMINDS ME OF IKE QUARTEY VS DELA HOYA. QUARTEY LOST BECOS HE DIDNT HAVE DISCIPLINE AND STAMINA IN THE LAST FEW ROUNDS.

Seriously Ghfuo we all love boxing , I see you watch some , use Boxrec for fact checking in terms of fights ,ko,s ,losses, upcoming fights etc. Please try to stop typing in CAPS, it puts a lot of strain on the eye to read your comments. You have a point on Ike loosing to Dela Hoya, its the Same as Joshua Loosing to Cotto, both in the 11 th and 12 th round. They were gassed out,lacked edurance in the championship rounds.Remeber Ike Quartey was the first to knockdown Oscar Dela Hoya and I was at BOTH FIGHTS.I also saw Ike beat Vernon Forest and get robbed live in New York , it was a very painful night for me. Now with that being said, fights from AL Haymon's PBC are now on regular TV . Theres Adonis Stevenson vs Sakio Bika Saturday at 3 EST , and also upcoming Garcia vs Peterson. I will be in Puerto Rico watching Olando Salido vs Martinez live. And Please Richard Commey cant beat Rances Bethlemy so stop calling him to fight Rances, at least not now, you can also see Rances last fight, it was the same night as Lawson/Prescott and was on the same bill. Commey throws amateurish wide hooks and Rances will make him pay for that with a check hook or step the side and counter upcut.
