- Terence Crawford challenges Israil Madrimov for the WBA super welterweight title
- Crawford vs Madrimov tops first Riyadh Season USA card live on DAZN PPV worldwide
- Isaac Cruz and David Morrell in WBA title fights on the Crawford vs Madrimov undercard
Pound-for-pound star Terence Crawford challenges Israil Madrimov for the WBA and WBO interim World Super-Welterweight title on August 3rd at the BMO Stadium, Los Angeles, California, USA.
Crawford (40-0 31 KOs) is gunning to become a Four-Weight World champion as he moves up to 154lbs after conquering the Welterweight division with a stunning KO win over Errol Spence to be crowned the undisputed champion at 147lbs in Las Vegas in July.
The Omaha star has already ruled the roost at Super-Lightweight and Lightweight, and now the pound-for-pound great is arrowing in on cementing greatness by claiming honors at a fourth weight.
Madrimov (10-0-1 7 KOs) is the man that stands in Crawford’s way, and the Uzbek champion makes his first defense of his title against the toughest opposition possible after winning the belt in spectacular fashion in his last outing in Saudi Arabia.
The 29-year-old took on Magomed Kurbanov for the vacant title in Riyadh in March, and stopped the Russian in five rounds with a dominant performance to continue his impressive unbeaten run in the paid ranks, following a glittering amateur career.
