Khan’s fight co-headlined the show with the Nicky Cook v Alex Arthur fight for the WBC super-featherweight title.  Arthur v Cook should be a British title fight at best, and not a great one either .Arthur is another one of the ever-increasing number of "world champions" to have a title handed to them without actually beating anybody.

I mean give me a break.

This was a joke of a card. And personally, I’m turning into more and more of frugal old curmudgeon these days.  You see ,the size of my ever growing family means that my days of forking out for any old rubbish in a ring is now history.

So i decided that there was absolutely no way was this piece of nonsense going onto my already well worn VISA.I would spend the night on the Xbox I told myself.

But, as fortune would have it, my still gullible older brother called me at the last minute to come over to his place to watch. Audley Harrison was just getting in the ring he said and I thought to myself "what the hell, big bruv will obviously need company to keep himself conscious through the human Valium that is big Audley."

But its got to be said, I thoroughly enjoyed the show from start to finish.  But i don’t think Mr. Warren did.

Yes the boxing was terrible.  Absolute muck in fact!

Big Audley, true to form was at his pathetically passive worst.  He was booed from first bell to last and I laughed into my beer all the way through.

The "world title" match followed and "Amazing" Alex Arthur lost his mickey mouse belt to Nicky Cook in as lackluster and uninspiring an effort as you will ever see.  More boo`s resounded.

My smile was growing and my beer tasted sweeter and sweeter with every swig.  You see the worse this show got for Frank Warren and his money grabbing team of fraudsters at Sky sports the happier it made me.

Now it was time for Khan.  Warren’s latest prize pet and his latest key to conning the faithful fightfan out of his hard earned few quid.  Surely Khan would not let Warren down? Not on his first Pay Per View show. That would be too much to hope for!

Who was this Colombian Kid anyway? A hand picked nobody with a good record just like most of the rest of Amir`s victims.  But another look at this guys record said he’s got a punchers chance at least,  especially when you consider how fragile looking Khan’s beard has always been.

Well what can I say?

I danced my happy dance all around by brothers front room. This unknown kid Prescott absolutely obliterated the British golden boy.  Wobbling him with a jab to start with and hurting him with ever hammer blow afterwards. The fight should really have been stopped after the first knockdown but referee Terry O`Connor allowed Prescott to tee off the kid again.  He blew him away.  

What was a devastating night for Khan will no doubt be recalled as an equally terrible night for British boxing.  That’s the way the Brits think.  But I wonder, how many fans actually realize that this was the best result for the sport in general?

This was poetic justice on show.  A night that the immoral  promoter and the over-hyped and un-proven prima-donna fighters took one in the eye from the sport itself.

This restored some of my faith in the sport.

Promoters like Warren are doing their damnedest to kill boxing with their short sighted attitudes and fighters like Khan and Harrison are symptomatic of the problem.

How many times do we fans have to pay to watch boxing?

And why should fans have to pay to watch fighters who have never proven themselves at British level much less European or world class.

Let this disaster serve as a lesson to Warren.  You can cheat the fans a lot of the time but boxing,  like no other sport has a great way of coming back and biting you on the ass. And don’t we just love it!
