Terence Crawford record: Career fight results, stats, titles, highlights – DAZN
Arguably the pound-for-pound best that boxing has to offer.
Think Terence Crawford, and absolute boxing brilliance comes to mind.
The three-division world champion and current WBO titleholder is arguably the pound-for-pound best that boxing has to offer with a pristine record, fight IQ that has him strategically switching stances perhaps better than anyone else and a noted mean streak where he has been known to prolong oppoonents' pain before ending their nights with fireworks.
DAZN takes a look at Crawford's record below.
Terence Crawford boasts a 39-0 professional record with 30 of those victories coming by way of knockout.
Terence Crawford is a three-division world champion, having captured the WBO lightweight title, the undisputed junior welterweight crown and currently holding the WBO welterweight championship.
The bout saw a 26-year-old Terence Crawford become WBO lightweight world champion after tactically breaking down Ricky Burns toward a unanimous decision victory. Judges in Glasgow scored it 116-112, 117-111 and 116-112 all in the American's favor as he savored his first taste of being a world titleholder.
Talk about making a splash in a new division, Crawford asserted his jab and used it to open up hellacious offense on Thomas Dulorme, dropping him three times in the sixth round toward an electric TKO victory and first piece of hardware at 140 pounds in the WBO junior welterweight title.
Crawford put his WBC and WBO titles up against Julius Indongo's WBA and IBF belts with 140-pound undisputed glory on the line.
In front of his home crowd in Nebraska, Crawford absolutely dazzled by placing a perfectly-pinpointed left hand behind the ear to drop Indongo in the second round. Smelling blood, "Bud" unloaded on a vicious left hook to the body that crumpled Indongo in pain and ended the fight on a raucous third-round TKO to crown Crawford an undisputed world champion in the modern four-belt era.
To put Crawford challenging for Jeff Horn's WBO title in perspective, consider this: Horn had shocked Manny Pacquiao by unanimous decision to snatch the belt just two fights prior and was undefeated at 18-0-1.
That is, until he met Crawford.
The American uncorked vicious left hands, leading to a knockdown and subsequent ninth-round TKO to begin his quest as a 147-pound ruler.
Throughout his career, Shawn Porter had built up a reputation for being a dogged fighter and taking opponents into deep waters with an aggressive attack and nonstop motor.
Crawford changed all that and stopped "Showtime" for the first time in his career by producing a 10th-round TKO that had Porter's father calling for an end to the fight.
That was triggered by Crawford placing a precise counter left hand to the temple to score a flash knockdown in the round, before unleashing a scintillating combination that put Porter on his seat for the second time in the frame, giving "Bud" the biggest quality name on his resume yet.

Chargers News: Fight Erupts Between Bolts and Ravens After Late Hit on Justin Herbert – Sports Illustrated
Erin Blanchfield patiently awaits her next UFC assignment.
Although it’s not totally clear what that will be, Blanchfield (12-1 MMA, 6-0 UFC) assumes an important matchup with Manon Fiorot (11-1 MMA, 6-0 UFC) is likely. The two flyweight combatants have established themselves as top contenders in a division that awaits a championship rematch between champion Alexa Grasso and former champion Valentina Shevchenko while they both recover from injury.
“Yeah, it’s definitely stalling,” Blanchfield recently said during an online live stream for digital wallet platform HUMBL. “I feel like I’ve had a couple No. 1 contender fights now. But you know, I’m still pretty young and gained valuable experience in those fights. … Whether it’s an interim or not, I’ll beat (Fiorot), and then I should definitely get a title next.”
Although UFC CEO Dana White has indicated it’s next, no timeline has been revealed for Grasso (16-3-1 MMA, 8-3-1 UFC) vs. Shevchenko (23-4-1 MMA, 12-3-1 UFC). Shevchenko had hand surgery in mid-September. Coincidentally, Grasso underwent hand surgery in early October.
Should there be further delays, Blanchfield wouldn’t mind seeing an interim title implemented. She’s healthy and ready to go, following a slight nasal fracture suffered in a unanimous decision win over Taila Santos in August.
“I haven’t been told about that yet,” Blanchfield said. I would definitely push for that. That’s something I’d definitely be interested in. I’m not sure when Valentina and Alexa are going to be ready to fight again. I know I think they’re on a similar timeline in their recovery. I would hope that if it ends up being longer, they’d have me and Manon fight for an interim.”

SACRAMENTO COUNTY – Two men died after they were shot outside of a bar in Sacramento County early Sunday morning, the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office said.
Deputies responded to Sacto By Night at 7121 Governors Circle at about 1:45 a.m.
A group of people who were leaving the bar got into a fight outside, leading to a shooting, deputies said.
The victims, who were two men, died at the scene, deputies said. One of them was the owner of the bar.
Investigators with the sheriff’s office believe a group of gang members who initially refused to leave the nightclub at closing is at the center of the incident. Those gang members apparently got involved in a fight in the parking lot, investigators said, with the suspected shooter being one of those gang members.
Witnesses described a white vehicle that took off from the scene. Deputies said the CHP located a vehicle matching the description and detained four people from that vehicle.
The people detained have since been identified as being allegedly involved in the shooting. Several guns have been recovered.
According to the sheriff’s office, the names of the suspects will be released once homicide and related charges are filed.
Brandon comes to CBS13 from Action News Now (KHSL/KNVN) in Chico where he spent two years as the Digital Content Manager.
