    Khan doesn't deserve it but I still think it would be a good fight as it would bring out the best in Crawford. Not because khan is great, but because he runs, steals rounds, etc. Bud would have to be aggressive and sharp.

      Khan can stay in there with the best fighters on the planet in terms of skill, but he can't take a punch. Khan has looked very good in all his fights where he was knocked out except the Breidis Presott fight where he was caught cold.

      Crawford is not a devastating one punch knockout fighter, so it might not be an easy night's work. Khan gives anyone in the division trouble because of his speed, but is always vulnerable. If khan had a granite chin he could have been one the GOATs, but he doesn't and he isn't.
      good points there but Crawford hasn't got a one time heavy punch at welterweight to decode the chin.

        Khan's speed would give Crawford problems early. But once Crawford gets his timing down you just know he will walk Khan onto a shot and stop him. Dont see Hearn putting Khan in with Crawford at this time.
