By Thomas Gerbasi - Terence Crawford is nearly 4,000 miles away from home, but as he settled in Glasgow, Scotland on Tuesday, he might as well have been in Omaha, Nebraska.
“I’m already adjusted and I’m good,” said the lightweight contender. “It’s colder back at home; it’s just raining more over here.”
He’d better get used to the rain; not just the water kind, but the boos that will pour down on him this Saturday, when he challenges local hero Ricky Burns for the WBO 135-pound crown. 10,000 fans are expected at the Scottish Exhibition Centre, all screaming for their man, who can silence any doubters with a win over the American hotshot.
