      The only reason that Crawford and team have been entertaining this fight is because the easy UK money.

      Big enough name to command a certain purse with the odds of winning on their side.

        Brook like Mean Machine throws a good straight right hand. Its the punch Crawford gets hit with the most.

          Brook hasn't looked like a tremendous fighter at all after GGG and Spence knocked him out. In fact he has looked very average in my opinion. He has not fought or defeated any top 10 world rated boxer since being KOed by Spence and has done nothing to earn a title shot at 147. He has not even fought at 147 since being KOed by Spence. He should beat a top ten welterweight at the top weight of 147 and then he would deserve a Crawford fight but he has just been fighting guys most fans have never heard of.

            Brook will be drained making 147 again. I don't think Crawford has as many issues with this Brook than he did with Mean Machine.

                He is not a natural welterweight and he told everyone that. He said it is pure hell for him to make 147 and he feels so weak and hungry he has trouble sleeping. He is a full sized 154 pounder who kills himself to make 147. It isn't that the best 154 pound boxers are bigger than him because they are not bigger only much better. Brook was very good a long time ago but not very good today, Crawford would be a big favorite to beat Brook as he should be.

                  Maybe two or so years back, he might have even beaten Crawford but I can't really see it now not after seeing Brooks last fight.
                  i know he likely had a little ring rust & all that but he looked so slow and ponderous. I think Smith would have likely beaten him had they fought.

                  I can forgive him looking a little lackluster and having too dig deep vs Zerafa as he's a little underrated and a lot bigger than Brook but I can't erase how awful he looked vs DeLuca.

                    Brook doesn’t win a round... he can barely make the weight and hasn’t had a relevant win since 2014.

                    I’d genuinely rather see Crawford-Khan 2

                      This is true. At this point Kell is stuck between weights and his best shot at another title is 147. His career has stalled of late and I don't give him a shot at beating Crawford.
