Crawford (36-0, 27 KOs) has been looking to secure a unification fight against the other welterweight titlists (Errol Spence Jr. and Manny Pacquiao), but when none of those fights materialized, a fight against Brook was the best next option.
Crawford vs. Madrimov will also live stream on DAZN in the UK. It's the same subscription + PPV format here, although the PPV fee is £24.99. Subscriptions go for £24.99 a month in the month-to-month format and £19.99 a month for the annual plan. Like the US, new users can get their first month free with either contract.
Crawford doesn’t seem to live a life of too much luxury outside of the ring though. He isn’t one of those athletes who splashes millions of dollars on flashy cars, expensive jewelry or various real estate properties.
The three-division titlist wins an unprecedented second undisputed crown, this time at welterweight, with a masterful stoppage win over the gutty Errol Spence Jr. Saturday night on SHOWTIME Pay-Per-View.

Valenzuela stalking, a stunning development against the "Pitbull," and he lands an uppercut. Showing good footwork, too. But Cruz now landing punches with authority and corners Valenzuela. Valenzuela 67, Cruz 66.
This is a magnificent fight pitting the two best welterweights in the world. The good news is, they’re in their primes, too. I have both guys in my pound-for-pound top-five list, but I feel Crawford is the more versatile fighter. His ability to switch stances creates doubt sometimes in his opponent’s mind and at least fills it with things to be aware of. Crawford is able to use his feet very well to create punching angles, and he’s got a highly underrated chin. It’s going to be a back-and-forth fight that I see Crawford winning by being busier, defending better, and punching more accurately. Crawford by decision.
Inoue looked cautious against Doheny, who had scored four victories to acquire a good reputation here in Japan, in the first round. Naoya, in round two, started to throw fast and light combinations to the defensive Irishman with his high guard. Continue reading "Inoue-Doheny Full Report"

"I wanted to fight him because I feel like he was the guy that's my dancing partner," Spence said on July 12 during a virtual news conference. "He is the guy I need, and the other way around. I'm the guy that he needs, especially we talk about legacy-wise and boxing-wise."
With about 2 minutes to go, Porter pounded his glove on the canvas, and shook his head, pissed at himself for opening up and leaving himself open for crisp countering. Porter rose at 7, but his night ended, as his father/trainer Kenny Porter pulled the plug.
