Terence Crawford, Kell Brook make weight for Saturday’s fight

Terence Crawford and Kell Brook on Friday made weight for their title fight on Saturday.

Terence Crawford and Kell Brook cleared the final hurdle for their fight Saturday inside the MGM Grand “bubble” in Las Vegas.

Crawford, who will be making the fourth defense of his welterweight title, weighed in Friday afternoon at 146.4. Brook weighed exactly 147, which is the division limit.

Brook has fought at junior middleweight in his last three fights. He hasn’t made 147 since he was knocked out by Errol Spence Jr. in May 2017.

Crawford (36-0, 27 KOs) and Brook (39-2, 27 KOs) reportedly stood more than six feet apart and exchanged trash talk after they were weighed.

“I’m going to beat your b—- ass,” Crawford told Brook.

Crawford stopped Jeff Horn in nine rounds to win his title in June 2018. Brook outpointed Shawn Porter to win a 147-pound title in August 2014 but lost it to Spence.
