LAS VEGAS – Terence Crawford is confident he reiterated his point by quickly knocking out Kell Brook, that he is the best boxer, pound-for-pound, in the world.

LAS VEGAS – Terence Crawford feels he has made it perfectly clear that he wants to fight Manny Pacquiao, Errol Spence Jr., Danny Garcia and Keith Thurman, in that order.

That’s why Crawford wasn’t interested after his fourth-round stoppage of Kell Brook on Saturday night in rehashing his wish list.
