Crawford CANNOT be considered P4P anything if Khan takes him the distance.

[Combat Talk Radio]

That's what's interesting about this fight, really. I said it before - you got a guy in Khan who's laser fast with the shots, great timing, etc. but falls victim to his own mistakes. Then you got a guy in Crawford who's only real trouble spot was against a guy who could throw nearly as fast as Khan in Gamboa.

Crawford sets you up for mistakes and takes advantage. Khan has a boxing pedigree and blistering speed. It's actually a very good fight.

But...more importantly, it's a great test for Crawford.

For you see, Crawford only really has one success vector: a knockout before Round 10, or a clearly acceptable stoppage (not that BS that happened to Horn). As in, Khan is just getting overwhelmed and dominated before the fight is stopped. Danny Garcia got him out of there in 4 rounds? Crawford should do AT LEAST as good if he's a top welter.

If Khan lasts until the championship rounds and has won at least half of them, there's just no way Crawford can be anyone's P4P. It's your opinion but come on. That'd be like Spence dropping rounds to Mikey - just shouldn't happen (and didn't).

Why is Loma considered P4P anything for going life and death with Pedraza for 12 rounds? Khan in his best days was much better than Pedraza or Linares, a lot better. Not a Khan fan here, by the way.

According to your logic Spence is the man and couldn’t stop a physical and mental midget who wasn’t trying to fight but if khan goes the distance with Crawford and wins some rounds it’s a slight on Crawford.Your point started to make sense after I lit my crack pipe.

Tank is the one that said it best: how is Loma P4P with 12 fights and 1 loss? It's a joke. But that's a separate problem.

No, Spence would have had the same challenge. If Mikey had won 5 or more rounds, no way would Spence have been P4P either.

As a reluctant admirer of Crawford I'm saying that he and Bomac will have studied Khan and worked out his basics, the rest will be done by Crawford in the ring. Khan't for a start is not capable of doing that, he has some great skills for sure but he is not complete like Crawford comes close to being and is not physical enough to overwhelm Crawford which is the only way to beat him for sure.

We are at the highest level here and this is the level where not quite there fighters get exposed. Khan has shown us several times that he is not quite there, in fact I think that he's a fair way from being there.

I don't agree but it'd be a bad look. But I'll say there is no need to worry, Khan is getting stopped.

Bro, come on. Prescott had him out of there in under a minute? And Danny had him out of there in 4 rounds. Canelo had him out of there in, what, 6?

Ignoring Canelo and focusing on Danny because Prescott was just perfect timing. If Crawford can't do what Danny Garcia EASILY did to a less damaged Khan, what's that say about Crawford?

I don't know if Khan roids up like alot of brits do like the fury family and a.j and dillian whyte it might just go the distance.but even a roided up khan can't beat bud

Everyone says it's chin. Steroids don't help that; ask Roy Jones.

Styles make fights, Khan is the naturally bigger man. He is still p4p whatever the method if he beats Khan.
