Sweet payback for Crawford

OMAHA, Nebraska - Terence Crawford used his right hand to deliver one last retort to all the pre-fight insults Jose Benavidez hurled his way.
Crawford dropped Benavidez with a huge right uppercut with a minute left in the 12th and final round of their WBO world welterweight title bout on Saturday, and four unanswered rights seconds later caused referee Celestino Ruiz to stop the fight with 18 seconds left.
"It feels so good to shut somebody up who has been talking for so long," Crawford said. "I'm at ease."
