Bay Area Knockout Ep. 2
Sports writer Alonso Frias returns with the second episode of the Bay Area Knockout for the Golden Gate Xpress. In this episode Frias goes over wins from the top two pound for pound fighters in the world. Vasiliy Lomachenko knocked out Anthony Crolla at the Staples Center and Terence Crawford defeated Amir Khan at Madison Square Garden. These two fights were special programming events as ESPN+ was celebrating its first year anniversary for the Lomachenko fight and it was the first Top Rank ESPN PPV event for the Crawford fight. Alonso mentions possible opponents that could come next and that would cement the two fighters on the pound for pound rankings.
