    Mathew Fouts couldn't carry Wilson Kayden's jock strap.

    I did like the way Kayden pointed out that Khan neutralised Devon`s right hook with his own left hook, I`ll look for that on youtube if Bud fights as a southpaw.

    Amir Khan barely squeeked by Sam Vargas. I actually gave it to Vargas.

    One thing for certain, it will not be an easy fight for Crawford.
    Kahn hand speed can steal rounds and make it a long night for Crawford. A possible SD upset too:campeon2:

    If Crawford fights in the southpaw stance, it actually benefits Khan. He has to fight orthodox to land his counters effectively and catch Khan pulling back. Khan is open to the left hook and right hand from the orthodox stance. The left hook need to cover a lot more distance from southpaw and the right hand doesn't have the same leverage.

    Now that I think about it, I think Khan have a chance in this fight. It'll depend on the styles matchup.

    Vargas followed the Canelo blueprint to knock Khan down.
