    I'm talking size wise, he only had 2 fights at 147, and both wins were more about dismantling and stopping the guys, I dont think he is a big puncher at 147..

    Spence and Thurman are bigger punchers and bigger guys..

    You do not need to be a huge puncher to hurt Khan. This has been proven time and time again.

    Yes also it has not too, depends on what type of fighter he is facing, Crawford is more of a boxer than a puncher..

    Since 2012 after losing to Gracia, Khan only lost to Canelo which was a mismatch in weight and power..

    Look at his opponents since that time and ask yourself if it even matters who he's beaten since Garcia

    Khan always chased the top fights, he wanted Mayweather never got the chance Khan was WBC No.1 at 147 ranked fighter for 2 years yet Mayweather didn't want to know, Now he fighting another top fighter..

    I have no idea what you’re talking about mate. When have I said Khan ducked anyone?

    You talking about level of op Khan faced since Garcia, I have showed you and explained who he fought, he could of fought better but still not bad as I said.

    yes because you made the point that he's unbeaten outside of Canelo, and in the context of him taking on Crawford, does it even matter? no it doesn't, because the opposition doesn't even start to come close to Crawford

    Please. Just remind me how many defeats Khan has attempted to avenge? His career at 147 was a constant low risk fights all in the hope of getting a Mayweather fight.

    We will see, Crawford is a top fighter, but has not beaten anyone of real note.. If he beats Khan thats his best win.
