4/20 ESPN PPV: Terence Crawford vs Amir Khan (WBO Welterweight Title)
- Thread starter patscorpio
- Start date
Khan said if he beats him..probably gives him the rematch and then does one more fight and retires.

If Khan had more power this fight could be dangerous for Crawford but at some point they will get into exchanges and at that point Crawfords power will be the difference and Khan will feel it. Khan's speed will be an issue early on and if Crawford doesn't get his timing down quick then it could get tough but I think he will weather the early stages and catch Khan and Khan will then respect his power if he is still standing.

Crawford (34-0, 25 KOs), the fighting pride of Omaha, Nebraska, unified all four super lightweight titles in August 2017 and moved up to the welterweight division intent on doing the same. In June 2018, he won the WBO welterweight title with a dominant ninth-round stoppage over Manny Pacquiao conqueror Jeff “The Hornet” Horn. Four months later, in front of a packed hometown house at the CHI Health Center Omaha, he stopped bitter rival Jose Benavidez Jr. in the 12th round.
Khan (33-4, 20 KOs), who captured an Olympic silver medal in 2004 for Great Britain at the age of 17, has long been one of boxing’s most captivating performers. He won his first world title in 2009 and has victories over Marco Antonio Barrera, Zab Judah, Marcos Maidana, Paulie Malignaggi, Luis Collazo and Devon Alexander. He is undefeated as a welterweight and is once again attempting to prove his greatness against boxing’s best.
In other action on the pay-per-view broadcast:
• Lightweight sensation Teofimo Lopez (12-0, 10 KOs) will face former world title challenger and two-time European lightweight champion Edis Tatli (31-2, 10 KOs) in a 12-round co-feature. Lopez is ranked in the top five by all four major sanctioning organizations and is coming off a savage seventh-round knockout over Diego Magdaleno.
• In the other co-feature attraction, Shakur Stevenson (10-0, 6 KOs), the 21-year-old featherweight phenom who earned a silver medal for the United States at the 2016 Rio Olympics, will face former world title challenger Christopher “Pitufo” Diaz (24-1, 16 KOs) in a 10-rounder.
• Felix “El Diamante” Verdejo (24-1, 16 KOs), one of Puerto Rico’s most popular fistic attractions, will fight former interim world champion Bryan Vasquez (37-3, 20 KOs) in a 10-round lightweight duel with potential world title implications.

ITV & BT Sport are killing Sky Sports with Boxing IMO...
People can say what they want about Don King, but he put together some outstanding fight cards.
I remember my pops paying for them. One Tyson fight in particular, I think against McNeely, he was pissed about the fight being over so quick. Undercard was good tho if I recall correctly.
He believed in entertaining the viewers
This analysis is a little bit more interesting than the rest..says he can win by boxing but wont win because he has bad habits and goes for the knockout, which leaves him utterly vulnerable.
If amir boxes like how he did against devon, then it will be a really interesting match!
