Sports Illustrated: Amir Khan picks Terence Crawford
Grant Young writes on Amir Khan’s comments: “I feel that Crawford has this fight in the bag because I have sparred with him even after we fought each other, and when he puts on that weight, he holds it so well – that muscle, and it’s not like he looks heavy or soft. He looks built and strong.”
Ring Magazine: Dmitry Bivol believes Terence Crawford can win
In an interview with Ring Magazine, Bivol stated, “My first reaction when I heard about the fight was about Crawford’s size. Is it appropriate for him to move up two weight classes? However, when I saw him in Dubai a month ago, I realized he is physically imposing and possesses excellent skills. He is one of my favorite boxers, and I believe he is capable of winning this fight.”
