Those fights were in the UK. Not really US exposure. And for those 2 fuights, he probably known for getting his eyes smashed. The Porter fight was poor too, ratings were poor.

Khan is a name in USA.. He's well known there. His popularity in the US, is probably just behind Lennox Lewis, if we're talking about Brits.

One of the best known Brits in the USA..

Arum probably wants a well recognised name on Crawford's resume. Kinda like how Bivol fought Pascal, for that same reason.

Both the 3G and Spence fights were carried in the US. However, there is no doubt that Khan is more popular than Brook.

I am just saying that IF Khan passes, AND Khan v Brook cannot be made, Brook should pursue the Crawford fight. It would be a tougher challenge for Crawford, and be a good comparison fight to Spence.

That is all.

Just say “NO” to Collazo!

I agree. Tough test for sure for Crawford. We saw what he did to Horn who was a huge WW too. Brook is obviously a better boxer than Horn though.?
