Terence Crawford vs Breidis Prescott

Unsurprisingly, Breidis Prescott goes to Belfast and gets shafted on all three scorecards, losing a unanimous decision in a fight many believe he should've won outright. McCloskey with his dubious win sets himself up as challenger to the belt now held by Lamont Peterson, who defeated Khan for the title in December.
