Terence Crawford

Terence Crawford, born on September 28, 1987, is a celebrated American former professional boxer whose career spanned from 2008 to 2025. Renowned for his exceptional skills and strategic prowess in the ring, Crawford retired with an impeccable undefeated record, having claimed 18 major world championships across five weight classes, from lightweight to super middleweight. His remarkable achievements include being the second male boxer in history to become a three-weight undisputed world champion.

Crawford's journey to greatness began in 2014 when he traveled to the UK to face Ricky Burns, securing his first world title, the WBO lightweight championship. Following two successful title defenses, he ascended to light welterweight, where he captured the vacant WBO title by defeating Thomas Dulorme in 2015. His crowning moment came in 2017 when he became the undisputed light welterweight champion, a feat not accomplished since Kostya Tszyu in 2004.

In 2023, Crawford triumphed over Errol Spence Jr. to claim the undisputed welterweight championship, marking a significant milestone as the first to do so since Zab Judah in 2006. He continued to make history in 2024 by moving up to light middleweight and defeating Israil Madrimov, thus becoming a four-division world champion. His final bout in 2025 saw him defeat Canelo Álvarez by unanimous decision, earning the undisputed super middleweight championship and solidifying his legacy as one of only six male boxers to win titles in five divisions.

Throughout his illustrious career, Crawford was never knocked down, and no judge ever scored a fight against him. His streak of eleven consecutive knockouts in world title fights ranks among the longest in boxing history. Recognized for his extraordinary talent, he was named Fighter of the Year multiple times and consistently ranked among the top boxers of his generation. In 2025, The Ring magazine honored him as the third-greatest pound-for-pound boxer of the 21st century.
