“There are huge fights ahead for Khan. Kell Brook wants to fight him, Errol Spence wants to fight him, so does Terence Crawford, Keith Thurman. They all do."
Lo Greco: "I've studied your [to Khan at this week's press conference] boxing. I honestly believe your best years are done, I think your best years were in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, and it's going to show on Saturday night."
