    Good fight for as long as it lasts, Crawford may struggle early with the speed of Khan. But will time him and get him out of there mid rounds.

    Its actually a better fight than Khan vs Brook

      Eddie Hearn rebooted Khans career. Payed him good money to fight tuneup fights, all building up to Khan vs Brook. And now Khan goes and fights Crawford. If I was Hearn I’d have Khan wacked.

        Not really difficult to criticize Khan imo.

        The guy continues to avoid Brook at all costs. I never believed him when he said he'd come to Matchroom to fight Brook, and I'm glad I didn't get my hopes up.

          That's two big fights Hearn has failed to get done so far. Let's see if Jacobs or Andrade gets a shot at Canelo in May! Maybe Hearn can convince the two longtime friends, Jacobs and Andrade, to fight each other?

            I personally would not write of Amir Khan, he Has had success with good, fast technical boxers, but always has problems with punchers. the problem is that Crawford is both technical and a good power puncher. I expect Khan to give Crawford more problems than people and media are giving him.

              Why? It's not like Hearn waived his promoter's cut when he signed Khan.

              Khan makes more money for Hearn than Brook does in multiple fights put together.

                KHAN is happier getting KTFO by CRAWFORD as opposed to BROOK.Lol.

                    Why not just admit Crawford can slap kahn around and it doesn't prevent the Brook payday from happening but if he fights brook first and loses then he likely doesn't get a Kahn fight.

                      Because he wants to cash out. He didn’t sign Khan just to feed him to Crawford. His promoters cut is peanuts compared to what Hearn would make in a Brooks Khan matchup.
