Two of the most dominant fighters of the boxing industry will collide when Canelo Alvarez and Terence "Bud" Crawford face off in a once-in-a-generation showdown Sept. 13 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
Canelo (63-2-2, 39 KOs), the reigning WBC, WBA, WBO and IBF super middleweight champion, will put his titles on the line against the undefeated, four-division king Crawford (41-0, 31 KOs), who is moving up to 168 pounds for the highly anticipated clash.
The 35-year-old Canelo, No. 8 in ESPN's pound-for-pound rankings, enters the bout after defeating William Scull in May and becoming the undisputed 168-pound champion for the second time in his career.
Crawford, ESPN's third-ranked pound-for-pound boxer, will end a yearlong hiatus when he steps into the ring with Canelo. The 37-year-old southpaw hasn't fought since taking the WBA junior middleweight title from Israil Madrimov In August 2024.
