Terence “Bud” Crawford made history in Las Vegas, defeating Saul “Canelo” Alvarez by unanimous decision to become the first male boxer to hold undisputed titles in three weight divisions.
Fighting in a heavier weight class for the first time, Crawford delivered a masterclass performance, dominating Alvarez in front of a massive, pro-Mexican crowd.
Despite the judges’ scorecards being closer than expected, Crawford’s victory was a defining moment, cementing his status as a pound-for-pound great.
An emotional Crawford, now 42-0, is contemplating retirement after the career-defining win.
For Alvarez, the loss to a smaller, ascending opponent was a setback, but he insisted his legacy remains intact.
