Terence Crawford Seeks Historic Third Undisputed Championship Against Canelo Alvarez
A Historic Opportunity Awaits
Terence Crawford stands on the verge of making boxing history as he prepares to face the legendary Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez. If successful, Crawford would become the first three-division undisputed champion of the four-belt era.
The Mega-Fight Details
The highly anticipated clash is scheduled for September 13, coinciding with Mexican Independence Day. Canelo will defend his super middleweight titles against Crawford, who will be competing at 168 pounds for the first time in his career.
Dubbed ‘Once In A Lifetime,’ this event marks the first Zuffa Boxing promotion under UFC CEO Dana White. The undercard features Christian M’billi facing Lester Martinez for the interim super middleweight title, along with a promising matchup between prospects Callum Walsh and Fernando Vargas Jr.
Crawford’s Remarkable Journey
Crawford enters this fight with an impeccable professional record of 41-0 with 31 knockouts, establishing himself as one of the most technically gifted boxers of his generation. He has already achieved the remarkable feat of becoming undisputed champion in two weight classes and currently holds the WBA light middleweight title since 2024.
The Challenge Ahead
This bout represents Crawford’s most ambitious challenge yet, as he has never competed above 154 pounds. His coach, Jacqui ‘Red’ Spikes, remains confident that Crawford’s skills will enable him to overcome the size disadvantage against Canelo, drawing inspiration from historical examples like Sugar Ray Leonard’s victory over Marvin Hagler.
Revolutionary Broadcasting
The fight will take place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas and will make history as the first major boxing event to be broadcast exclusively on Netflix in both the United States and the UK, marking a new era in boxing broadcasting.
