The Nebraska man is widely regarded as one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world, up there with the likes of Naoya Inoue, Oleksandr Usyk and ‘Canelo‘.
The win over Spence last time out firmly cemented Crawford’s legacy as one of the best welterweights in recent boxing memory, as well as staking his claim at being the single best P4P fighter on the planet.
The overall Terence Crawford record is a perfect one of 40-0. Of these 40 wins, ‘Bud’ has won all but nine bouts via knockout. Quite an emphatic knockout ratio from the two-division undisputed world champion.
The only men to go the distance with Crawford since stepping up to the world level are Viktor Postol, Ricky Burns, and Raymundo Beltran. This is why Crawford is almost always odds on to win via knockout with the best offshore sportsbooks when he steps foot in the ring.
