Terence Crawford - English
The countdown is on for one of the most anticipated fights in modern boxing.
What began as speculation has transformed into a career-defining showdown between Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford-a matchup charged with legacy, risk, and high drama.
For Crawford, the undefeated Omaha native, this fight represents far more than just another payday. He delayed retirement, pursued the bout relentlessly, and now stands at the edge of boxing immortality.
His recent appearance at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas, where he received a thunderous ovation, highlighted his growing crossover appeal. Boxing insider Rick Glaser, long a supporter of Crawford, summed it up.
“Crawford has transitioned into a star.”
Glaser went on to paint a dream scenario for Crawford fans-one in which Bud defeats Canelo, grants him a rematch, then rides off undefeated into retirement. But even Glaser admitted that, for now, this remains just hopeful thinking.
Trouble in camp and questions in the ring
What adds intrigue to the fight is the mounting speculation about Canelo Alvarez’s preparation. According to boxer Dominique Crowder, who spoke with Fight Hype, an inside source from Canelo’s camp claims the Mexican superstar has looked sluggish in training.
“Canelo’s slow on his feet. Crawford can outbox him,” Crowder claimed.
However, even with that supposed intel, Crowder cautioned against underestimating the former undisputed super middleweight champion.
“You’ve got 12 rounds. It’s like you’re a tree and he’s chopping at you-eventually, he’s going to catch up.”
Canelo has made a career out of silencing doubts. His timing, power, and ring IQ have overwhelmed faster fighters before. If he can withstand Crawford’s early tempo, it may only take one clean counter to change the fight.
As the fight approaches, both men carry more than belts into the ring-they carry the weight of expectation, reputation, and final chapters. Will Crawford secure the perfect send-off? Or will Canelo reaffirm his dominance with one more signature win? Whatever happens, this battle promises to leave a permanent mark on boxing’s legacy.

Slovenský tvrďák si žije svůj sen. V UFC válí, teď může raketově vystřelit
Z pohledu Kleina se skutečně jedná o jedinečnou šanci. Při jedenáctém klání (7 výher, 2 porážky a 1 remíza) za oceánem může v případě triumfu nakouknout mezi naprosto světovou elitu, neboť doposud ani jednou nefiguroval mezi patnáctkou nejlepších v lehké váze (70 kg). Souboj s polským protivníkem to konečně může změnit.Cítíte úlevu, že byl váš zápas proti Gamrotovi konečně oznámen i ze strany UFC?Mám velkou radost. My jsme o tom samozřejmě věděli, ale bylo to takové, že to ještě nebylo ze soupeřovy strany oficiálně podepsané. Tolik jsem nevěřil tomu, že Mateusz se mnou vezme zápas, protože mu to podle mého nedává až takový smysl. Nikam ho to neposune. Já jsem ale samozřejmě doufal, že se to stane, a přál jsem si, aby to přijal a podepsal. Jen jsem tomu nedával až takové šance.Jaké jste zaznamenal reakcí okolí?Čekal jsem, že mě všichni budou odepisovat a budou říkat, že zápas nedává žádný smysl a Gamrot mě jednoznačně […]
No edge rushers for Lions on NFL Draft Day 2 as Brad Holmes sticks to his plan
ALLEN PARK, Mich. — Brad Holmes and the Detroit Lions war room were spotted wearing hoodies that read “HWS” — height, weight, speed — crossed out. The Lions typically coordinate their apparel during draft weekend. They’ve worn “positional villain” hoodies. They’ve collectively worn Dan Campbell jerseys, perhaps an ode to drafting Dan Campbell guys. So when Holmes emerged Friday at the end of night two, he explained the latest draft-related message.Advertisement“Height, weight, speed — it is the opposite of film evaluation, and we’re all about film evaluation,” Holmes said. “That’s the hard part of scouting. Height, weight, speed is easy. Stats are easy. A position listed is easy. But film evaluation is hard to figure out.”The Lions believe in film. They believe it doesn’t lie. The film told them that Georgia guard Tate Ratledge and Arkansas wide reciever Isaac TeSlaa […]
With Game 3 win, Devils show resolve that could benefit them long beyond the playoffs
NEWARK, N.J. — Friday night’s double-overtime victory doesn’t mean the New Jersey Devils will win this series. It doesn’t even mean they’ll reach Game 6. They are still the heavy underdogs and trailing 2-1 against a Carolina Hurricanes team that is healthier and has more recent playoff success. Not many people would bat an eye if Carolina won the next two games and sent the Devils home for the summer.AdvertisementBut that doesn’t change the importance of New Jersey’s Game 3 win. It’s the type of game that will stick with players on the roster, from overtime hero Simon Nemec — a healthy scratch earlier this series — to Jonas Siegenthaler, who played his first game since February, to young players like Paul Cotter and Cody Glass, who took their first-ever playoff overtime shifts.It’s the type of win that builds the […]
Anthony Edwards is two wins from adding LeBron James and Luka Dončić to his collection of playoff victims
Getty Images In hindsight, it's a bit surprising how comfortably Anthony Edwards deferred to the NBA's elder statesmen at the Olympics.The brashest player in the NBA happily came off of the bench as Stephen Curry, LeBron James and Kevin Durant led Team USA to gold. Never mind that he'd just swept Durant out of the playoffs. He played only 13 minutes when Team USA overcame Nikola Jokić and Serbia in the semifinals. Maybe the game wouldn't have been so close if Edwards had seen more minutes. After all, he'd just beaten Jokić in the playoffs too.That Olympic tournament set up what essentially became the narrative of professional basketball for the next year. It was supposed to be one last ride for a legendary generation of American players, one that would set Edwards and his generational cohort up to take the […]
