Amir Khan Responds To Terence Crawford’s Abrupt Retirement
Amir Khan has finally weighed in following the announcement of Terence Crawford’s retirement from boxing. Crawford decided to end his remarkable professional journey on Monday night, just a few months after his landmark win against Canelo Alvarez. The 38-year-old from Omaha triumphed over Canelo by unanimous decision at the end of their bout on September 13, securing the undisputed super-middleweight title. ‘Bud’ Crawford achieved numerous legacy-defining victories during his career, including one against two-time light-welterweight champion Amir Khan in April 2019. In an interview with The Ring Magazine, Khan expressed admiration for his former opponent, referring to the three-weight undisputed champion as ‘one of the greatest ever’. “Terence is such a legend in the sport of boxing and will always be remembered as one of the greats. I saw him in Dubai two days ago at the boxing event, at the IBA event, and he didn’t mention a single thing about retiring, and I was asking him who he plans to fight next because I want to be there. “I’m a friend and I love boxing, I love watching great boxing and obviously have been training alongside him for a long time, and him taking the time to come all the way to the mountains to train with me is something I will always cherish.” ‘Bud’ concluded his career with a flawless record, joining the ranks of a select few legendary champions in boxing history who managed to retire without a single loss.
