By the fourth Khan was recieving a one sided beating from Crawford, who dished out punishing body shots at Khan but the Brit was able to land a big right hand to finish the round.

The former unified light-welterweight champion had begun to struggle with what appeared to be an injured right arm and was taking regular punishment before the premature ending in the sixth round when he was withdrawn following Crawford’s low blow.
