    Khan will fight a top 5 at 147 fighter by Dec his 2nd fight is in Aug.. Khan not signed with Eddie to fight bums, his last fight was just a small tune up Khan win or lose is coming for a 147 title believe..

    Khan is a hot headed fighter which in the past has been his let down, Khan is 31 now and in the past in some of his fights Khan shown full control yet in others been wreckless, At this stage of his career Khan will be more measured in his approach..

    Crawford will easily beat Amir Khan. And so does Spence.

    Khan would get Khan'd... and anyway, he's a barely-relevant, semi-retired very-former world champion with a chin made of marshmallow. This fight doesn't excite me to be honest...

    Can' see it, he' a flawed fighter. He' not physically strong, he' not heavy handed, he' not durable, he has a glass chin, he has a low boxing IQ ....What he does have is world class hand speed and tons of heart, but I'm afraid that will not hold him in good stead at 147.

    Khan was never the man at 135 or 140 at 147 he'll be babied then get fed to Brook.

    Khan better avoid Crawford if he knows what's best for him. Khan vs good counter punchers is a road to sleepy nap time for Khan.

    Khan doesn't stand a chance.

    Anyone implying this is anywhere near a 50/50 better stop watching boxing.

    Crawford packs power and skills, Khan packs skills and china glass, I have a feeling Khan would outbox Crawford for 2 or 3 rounds, then he'd be knocked out like he was vs Canelo

    It's not about fighting smart, any version of Khan can show up with his incredible athletic abilities, and his lack of caginess, the built-in defensive deficiencies and fast but telegraphed straightforward punching is there to be timed. He was timed and KO'd early more than once, and Crawford is a baaaaaad baaaad man inside the ring, just ask Indongo. Sheer horror that fight for Khan, he can do much better vs. similarly straightforward Thurman.

    That's a bold prediction. In my mind Khan is very capable of winning a world title, if not at 147 then possibly at 154. But 147 is stacked, and it remains to be seen what will happen with Khan.

    That's a good question. I'm not boldly predicting he will win another world title, I just think it's a distinct possibility. He's a very difficult stylistic matchup. If you don't have big one-punch knockout power, he's very capable of outboxing you and winning a decision.
