Terence Crawford stops Kell Brook early in spectacular fashion

Terence Crawford made a strong case for himself as the world’s best pound-for-pound boxer on Saturday at the MGM Grand Conference Center, stopping Kell Brook in the fourth round of their bout for the WBO welterweight title.

Crawford, fighting out of a southpaw stance as he often does, sent Brook sprawling into the ropes in the fourth with a hard right hand jab to the side of the head. Before referee Tony Weeks could get in to call it a knockdown, Crawford landed two more shots.

When the action resumed, Crawford was all over Brook, who was still woozy.
