We know Bud could only "beat" Khan by resorting to illegal low blows in the 6th round and hoping the ref either wouldn't notice them, would ignore them, or would deem them "accidental". At that point in the fight, Khan was pretty much 50-50 with Bud after recovering from the early knockdown and getting well and truly back into the fight. Khan's comeback in that fight must have spooked Bud in to low-blowing to find a way out.
But Crawford broke Brook down round by round and had him ready to quit by the 4th with no need to throw a single illegal shot! The ref stopped it before Kell had a chance to jump ship of his own accord.
So we can safely say that the speculation is over now and that Khan is the superior fighter out of them all.
