    Going against the grain here, but I'm going for a Khan points win.
    Crazy I know but I think he has the ability and know how to sneak this one.

    He knows if he loses he only has Brook left, so to swerve that fight again he will beat TC!!!

    Khan hasn't held a world title since 2011.

    He's had 7 fights since the start of 2013.

    He's been KOed cold once since then from moving up in weight and dropped by Julio Diaz in a close fight and hurt badly and dropped by Samuel Vargas in his last fight.

    After 3 rounds in his last fight, he slowed down and he is clueless fighting on the inside.

    Crawford should win at a canter as long as he doesn't get careless in the first 3 rounds.

    It would ludicrous to think anything other than Crawford is a very good boxer and a favourite to beat Khan.However I haven’t bought into the belief that he is the current P4P champion and he hasn’t proved himself the top Welter as yet. I know most expect him to capitalise on the weakness of Khan’s chin and tendency to fade down the stretch but he couldn’t stop Ricky Burns at lightweight ? And Khan is a bigger and better boxer than Burns in my opinion.

    LOL Burns has always had an excellent chin, he's never been stopped. Khan could only dream of having Ricky Burns' chin! Burns is a 3 weight world champion and has achieved more than Khan and in his prime was more talented imo.

    Naaa mate as most saying on here because Canelo knocked Khan out after 6 rounds.. Crawford the 160lbs will do the same lol

    Khan is bigger than Crawford and this going the distance, and as ever when it goes to the cards Khan will be favourite..

    And if Khan wins I don't want to hear ohh Crawford was this or that, No everyone make him out P4P top 3 fighter and the best thing since sliced bread lol .. Khan better get the respect he deserves.. A real fighter..

    Forget about size for a moment, if this was about skill then Crawford leaves Khan behind. I like Khan, a proper warrior, been in with the best, always entertaining so this opinion isn’t a anti Khan one.

    He’s had too long out the game, come back and what punch resistance he had left looks like it’s gone. Khan got knocked down in the 2nd against Vargas but it was right at the very end of round 10 that it was clear as day that Khan is shot.

    Jump to 33 mins 8 secs. It’s a hook from Vargas. Not much in it and Khan is on bambi legs. Wait till switch hitting p4p top quality Crawford lands.

    Khan didnt even train properly for his last fight, I mean these tune up are hard to get motivated for..

    This on the other hand is Khan's fight of his career now.. He has always wanted a chance to fight the best...

    Weigh in is in 30mins watch the shape Khan is in.. That will tell us alot on how serious Khan is..

    Canelo had a big weight advantage and size advantage, Crawford doesn't that's the difference...

    Sorry mate but I find it hard to believe that Khan didn’t train properly for the fight. If there was any truth in that at all he should quit now.
