🌎👑 Terence Crawford all too much for Kell Brook as he overwhelms him for a fourth-round stoppage. Competitive first three and then Crawford proves why he’s one of the best fighters on the planet. Still WBO welterweight world champion.

I wouldn’t count on Manny Pacquiao fighting Crawford. Pacquiao’s team is far more interested in Mikey Garcia. That puts Top Rank in a difficult spot. If they can’t make a Spence fight, they may have to let Bud go.

No replay needed. Terence Crawford is a gotdamn man. Just absolutely took apart Kell Brook. He read him early, saw his openings and then exploited them. Clinical. #CrawfordBrook

However, there is a chance that Crawford could also take on WBA (super) welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao. ‘PacMan’ is looking to return sometime in 2021. It is an exciting match-up that promises to be a barn-burner. Additionally, Crawford will look to further cement his legacy as pound-for-pound best with a win over the legendary Manny Pacquiao.
