Terence Crawford proved to be too much for Amir Khan, but it was a low blow that forced Khan’s head coach Virgil Hunter to throw in the towel in the sixth round and Crawford walked away with the TKO victory.
Crawford was the heavy favourite coming into the fight with Khan, and for the right reasons as ‘Bud’ dominated the early rounds. Dropping Khan in the first round, Crawford was on cruise control for the fight and was rarely troubled by anything Khan offered. In the sixth round, a low blow from Crawford caused a halt to the fight.
