        What are the odds? Khan is a live dog I think.

            You’ll feel awesome if Khan wins. And if not, oh well. A couple hundred bucks won’t kill you.

            Crawford is definitely not the guy I would pick Khan to defeat, but longshot bets are longshot bets.

              I would not have bet on Khan for under about 20-1. I think your best chance is that Crawford sprains an ankle or some other sports injury

                It may FEEL like it would be a good bet because he was once a very competent fighter. But, if you look at how inactive the guy has been (2 fights in 3 years), the fact that his last MEANINGFUL win was 8 years ago, it's a waste of $200.

                In boxing, the risky bets you want to take are on the prospects who you feel will shock everyone and be future greats. Betting on old, washed-up stars is for suckers. Don't do it.

                  Curious, whats the Over/under on this fight? I think there is more value in that than some of the straight up bets so far in 2019

                    It's a mistake.

                    That said, for all Crawford's belts, he's never proven that he's an elite fighter when it comes to opposition. He hasn't beaten any elite fighters or really top quality fighters. Are Postol or Gamboa any better than Khan? Gamboa maybe not not with that size disadvantage.

                    The problem is Khan isn't a top fighter, never was and certainly isn't in 2019. Khan was just a solid world level fighter in his prime, which was about around 2010-2011. He looked very faded in his last fight.

                    If Crawford even struggles with him, it's not going to be a good look, especially when his resume is pretty thin already.
