'''Terence Allan Crawford''' (born September 28, 1987) is an American [[professional boxer]]. He has held multiple [[quadruple champion#Boxing|world championships in four weight classes]], from [[lightweight]] to [[light middleweight]], including the [[undisputed championship (boxing)|undisputed championship]]{{efn|[[World Boxing Association]] (WBA) ([[WBA (Super)|Super version]]), [[World Boxing Council]] (WBC), [[International Boxing Federation]] (IBF), and [[World Boxing Organization]] (WBO) titles.}} at [[light welterweight]] and [[welterweight]]. He has held the [[World Boxing Association]] (WBA) light middleweight and [[World Boxing Organization]] (WBO) [[interim championship|interim]] light middleweight titles since August 2024.

In 2017, Crawford had a short reign as the undisputed light welterweight champion, being the first since [[Kostya Tszyu]] in 2004, and the first in any weight class to simultaneously hold all four major world titles since [[Jermain Taylor]] in 2005.<ref>{{cite news |title=Josh Taylor v Jose Ramirez: Scot becomes first Briton to unify division in four-belt era |work=BBC Sport |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/boxing/57216305 |access-date=23 May 2021}}</ref> In 2023, he became the undisputed welterweight champion, the first since [[Zab Judah]] in 2006. Crawford is the one of only three male boxers in history, along with [[Naoya Inoue]] and [[Oleksandr Usyk]], to become the undisputed champion in two weight classes in the "four-belt era".<ref name="welterweight undisputed" />

Crawford was named [[Sugar Ray Robinson Award|Fighter of the Year]] by the [[Boxing Writers Association of America]] in 2014, and by [[ESPN]] in 2014 and 2017.

===Early career===
Crawford made his professional debut on March 14, 2008, knocking out Brian Cummings in the first round. He compiled a record of 19–0 with 15 wins by way of [[knockout]] (KO) against largely unheralded opposition.

Crawford's first notable bout was against [[Breidis Prescott]] on the undercard of the second fight between [[Brandon Ríos]] and [[Mike Alvarado]]. Prescott was originally scheduled to face [[WBA Light Welterweight Champion|WBA light welterweight champion]] [[Khabib Allakhverdiev]], who withdrew with an injured elbow. Crawford was originally supposed to meet Robert Osiobe on the same card, but accepted the offer to fill in for Allakhverdiev on three-days notice. Crawford defeated the Colombian by a [[unanimous decision]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/id/9116541/terrence-crawford-upsets-breidis-prescott-10-dominant-rounds|title=Crawford upsets Prescott by UD|date=March 31, 2013|access-date=January 12, 2017}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.badlefthook.com/2013/3/30/4166342/rios-vs-alvarado-ii-results-terence-crawford-outboxes-breidis|title=Terence Crawford outboxes Breidis Prescott in HBO debut|date=March 30, 2013|access-date=January 12, 2017}}</ref> Crawford received a purse of $125,000, whilst Prescott received $50,000.

Crawford fought Alejandro Sanabria on June 15, 2013.

====Crawford vs. Klimov====
On August 21, 2013, it was announced that Crawford would fight undefeated Russian boxer and WBO #12 ranked [[Andrey Klimov (boxer)|Andrey Klimov]] in another elimination bout, which would see the winner challenge WBO champion [[Ricky Burns]]. The fight was scheduled for ten rounds and took place on the undercard of [[Miguel Cotto]] vs. [[Delvin Rodríguez|Delvin Rodriguez]] on [[HBO]] at the [[Amway Center]] in [[Orlando, Florida]], on October 5. Klimov was coming off a [[majority decision]] (MD) win over fringe contender [[John Molina Jr.]] in June 2013.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.boxingnews24.com/2013/08/terence-crawford-vs-andrey-klimov-on-october-5th-in-orlando-florida/|title=Terence Crawford vs. Andrey Klimov on October 5th in Orlando, Florida|date=August 21, 2013|access-date=January 12, 2017}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.boxingscene.com/terence-crawford-vs-andrey-klimov-on-oct-5--68822|title=Terence Crawford vs. Andrey Klimov is On for Oct. 5 – Boxing News|website=boxingscene.com|date=20 August 2013 |language=en-us|access-date=2017-09-27}}</ref> After ten rounds, all three judges scored the fight 100–90 in Crawford's favour, Klimov's first defeat as a professional.

In the post-fight interview, Crawford spoke on how he went in and got the job done, "I outboxed him. It was easy all night long. I thought I was hurting him all night long. I was never in any trouble and I thought he was in trouble." Due to Klimov's lack of action, it prompted a member of his team to call him a 'coward' after round eight in the corner.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.espn.co.uk/boxing/story/_/id/9779688/terence-crawford-won-handily-andrey-klimov-efforts-stink-out|title=Crawford easily outclasses Klimov|date=October 5, 2013|access-date=January 12, 2017}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.boxingscene.com/terence-crawford-decisions-elusive-klimov-over-ten--70306|title=Terence Crawford Decisions Elusive Klimov Over Ten – Boxing News|website=boxingscene.com|date=5 October 2013 |language=en-us|access-date=2017-09-27}}</ref>

====Crawford vs. Gamboa====
Fighting for the first time as a professional in his hometown of [[Omaha, Nebraska]], Crawford made his first title defense against 2004 Cuban [[Boxing at the 2004 Summer Olympics#Medal summary|Olympic gold medalist]] and former [[International Boxing Federation|IBF]] [[featherweight]] champion [[Yuriorkis Gamboa]].

Panned as a second-rate fight for the undefeated Crawford, the bout picked up considerable steam in the weeks leading up to the telecast as Lundy boldly predicted a knockout win.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.ringtv.com/407873-terence-crawford-to-face-henry-lundy-on-feb-27/|title=Terence Crawford to face Henry Lundy on Feb. 27 – The Ring|date=2016-01-11|work=The Ring|access-date=2017-09-27|language=en-US}}</ref> Crawford successfully defended his light welterweight title with a fifth-round TKO of Lundy. Crawford connected with 89 of 247 punches (36%), compared to 47 of 411 for Lundy (22%). Crawford won a fast-paced first round, finally sending Lundy down in a corner in the fifth round. He beat the count, but the bout was soon stopped by referee Steve Willis at 2 minutes, 9 seconds. Crawford spoke out about his feud with Lundy on social media, "He and I had gone back and forth on Twitter for like a year. I just wanted to shut him up for good." Crawford earned $1.21 million and Lundy earned a $150,000 purse. Although there was a lot of tension pre-fight, Lundy approached Crawford after the fight and showed respect.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/id/14862658/terence-crawford-defeats-hank-lundy-keep-junior-welterweight-belt|title=Crawford quiets Lundy with fifth-round knockout|work=ESPN.com|access-date=2017-09-27}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2016/feb/28/terence-crawford-blasts-hank-lundy-to-defend-junior-welterweight-title|title=Terence Crawford blasts Hank Lundy to defend light welterweight title|last=Graham|first=Bryan Armen|date=2016-02-28|website=the Guardian|access-date=2016-05-04}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.badlefthook.com/2016/2/28/11128366/crawford-vs-lundy-highlights-terence-crawford-drops-stops-hank-lundy|title=Highlights: Crawford TKO-5 Lundy|work=Bad Left Hook|access-date=2017-09-27}}</ref> The fight averaged 982,000 viewers on HBO and peaked just over 1 million viewers.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.boxingscene.com/crawford-lundy-hbo-headliner-averages-982000-viewers--101921|title=Crawford-Lundy HBO Headliner Averages 982,000 Viewers – Boxing News|website=www.boxingscene.com|date=March 2016 |language=en-us|access-date=2017-05-23}}</ref>

====Crawford vs. Postol====
On May 3, 2016, it was finally confirmed that Crawford and [[List of WBC world champions#Super lightweight|WBC champion]] [[Viktor Postol]] had officially signed a contract for the highly anticipated light welterweight unification fight on July 23 at the [[MGM Grand Las Vegas|MGM Grand]] in [[Las Vegas]]. Both fighters entered the ring with a matched record of 28 wins, no losses. Both men also entered the [[MGM Grand Garden Arena]] for the first time in their respective careers.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.boxingscene.com/crawford-postol-deal-place-july-23-on-hbo-ppv--103854|title=Crawford, Postol Deal in Place For July 23 on HBO PPV|work=BoxingScene.com|access-date=2018-02-13|language=en-us}}</ref> Crawford won by UD and unified two light welterweight world titles before a crowd of 7,027.

Postol was penalised for [[rabbit punching]] in the eleventh round when he hit Crawford with a right hand behind the head for which Postol was penalized one point, adding to Crawford's advantage. With the victory, Crawford staked his indisputable claim to division supremacy and set himself up for bigger fights, possibly against a returning Manny Pacquiao. Over twelve rounds, Crawford landed 141 of his 388 punches thrown (36%), and Postol landed 83 of 244 thrown (34%).<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.skysports.com/boxing/news/12183/10511019/terence-crawford-knocks-viktor-postol-down-twice-to-win-world-title-unification-fight|title=Terence Crawford knocks Viktor Postol down twice to win world title unification fight|work=Sky Sports|access-date=2017-09-10|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.badlefthook.com/2016/7/24/12264750/crawford-vs-postol-results-terence-crawford-dominates-unifies-wbo-and-wbc-belts|title=Crawford dominates Postol, unifies WBO & WBC belts|work=Bad Left Hook|access-date=2017-09-10}}</ref>

In the post-fight interview, Postol praised Crawford, saying "I thought it was a good fight between two technicians, but he was quicker than me. He is one of the best fighters in the world. I just didn't have the answers for him." Crawford also praised his trainer Brian McIntyre, "[[Freddie Roach (boxing)|Freddie Roach]] and Postol said that Freddie would outcoach my coach, but you tell 'em who got outcoached tonight." McIntyre revealed the plan was to keep Postol moving, which would have eliminated his jab and right hand. Crawford's purse for the fight was $1.3 million. Postol earned $675,000 for his part.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.espn.co.uk/boxing/story/_/id/17133585/terence-crawford-dominates-viktor-postol-becomes-junior-welterweight-unified-champion|title=Crawford unifies titles in lopsided win over Postol|date=24 July 2016|access-date=2016-07-25}}</ref> Some sources{{who|date=February 2023}} stated the fight generated 50,000 PPV buys on HBO.

====Crawford vs. Molina====
Crawford was not due to fight next until 2017, however due to the [[Gennady Golovkin vs. Daniel Jacobs|Golovkin-Jacobs]] fight being postponed to early 2017, this freed up the December 10 date for HBO. Arum confirmed Crawford would take the date and look at potential opponents, including the then [[List of IBF world champions#Junior welterweight|IBF champion]] [[Eduard Troyanovsky]] and [[Antonio Orozco (boxer)|Antonio Orozco]].<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.espn.co.uk/boxing/story/_/id/17847310/terence-crawford-talks-fill-hbo-ggg-jacobs-slot|title=Crawford in talks to fill HBO's GGG-Jacobs slot|newspaper=ESPN.com|access-date=2016-10-29}}</ref> Arum announced a deal was in place for a fight between Crawford and 33 year old contender [[John Molina Jr.]] on December 10, 2016, at Crawford's hometown at CenturyLink Center in Omaha, Nebraska. Molina had previously defeated Russian contender [[Ruslan Provodnikov]] by UD in a twelve-round June 2016 fight, in which he also claimed the vacant WBO International light welterweight title.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/id/17913739/unified-junior-welterweight-world-champion-terence-crawford-agrees-fight-defend-crown-contender-john-molina-jr|title=Crawford, Molina agree to Dec. 10 title bout|newspaper=ESPN.com|access-date=2016-10-29}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.boxingscene.com/terence-crawford-john-molina-december-10--110197?|title=Terence Crawford, John Molina Agree To Fight on December 10 – Boxing News|website=boxingscene.com|date=28 October 2016 |access-date=2016-10-29}}</ref> Molina weighed 144lb at the official weigh-in which meant he lost the right to fight for Crawford's world titles. Had Crawford lost the fight, he would have lost his belts. For the fight to go ahead, Molina gave $400,000 of his purse to Crawford, adding to his already agreed purse of $1.5m.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/id/18247338/john-molina-jr-fails-make-weight-fight-terence-crawford|title=Molina fails to make weight but fight still on|newspaper=ESPN.com|access-date=2016-12-10}}</ref>

Crawford held onto his titles, stopping Molina in the eighth round in front of a large home crowd in Omaha. Crawford moved around the ring for most of the fight, jabbing, holding and pot-shotting Molina. Referee Mark Nelson halted the fight in the eight round after Molina received three consecutive hits to the head. In the post-fight interview, Crawford felt he should be the 2016 'Fighter of the Year' for his wins over Molina, Lundy and Postol, "I feel like I got it. I just have to wait until the results come in." Crawford also reiterated his desire to unify the division before a possible move up to [[welterweight]]. Crawford landed 184 punches from 419 thrown, Molina landed 41 of 287 thrown, a 14% connect rate.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.boxingscene.com/terence-crawford-dominates-john-molina-stops-him-8th-round--111640|title=Terence Crawford Dominates John Molina; Stops Him in 8th Round – Boxing News|website=boxingscene.com|date=11 December 2016 |access-date=2016-12-11}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.ringtv.com/476902-terence-crawford-outclasses-stops-john-molina/|title=Terence Crawford makes easy work out of John Molina – The Ring|date=2016-12-10|newspaper=The Ring|language=en-US|access-date=2016-12-11}}</ref> The fight drew an average 806,000 viewers and peaked at 871,000 viewers on HBO.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.boxingnews24.com/2016/12/crawford-molina-averages-806k-viewers-hbo/|title=Crawford-Molina averages 806K viewers on HBO » Boxing News|date=2016-12-14|work=Boxing News 24|access-date=2017-05-23|language=en-US}}</ref>

====Crawford vs. Diaz====
Bob Arum spoke to ESPN in early February 2017 about Crawford's next defence and possible opponents. He said that HBO had set a May 20 date for the fight and the venue would most likely be in Crawford's hometown, Omaha. Mexican boxer Antonio Orozco, one of Crawford's [[mandatory challenger]]s and [[Boxing at the 2008 Summer Olympics#Medal summary|Olympic gold medalist]] [[Félix Díaz (boxer)|Felix Diaz]], who had been calling out Crawford, were the names mentioned. He went on to explain how Orozco's promoters seemed to have little interest in the fight. [[Lou DiBella]], promoter of Diaz, was eager to make a fight happen.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.espn.co.uk/boxing/story/_/id/18600046/terence-crawford-defend-junior-welterweight-title-20|title=Crawford to defend unified championship in May|newspaper=ESPN.com|access-date=2017-02-02}}</ref> Arum spoke to ''The Ring'' on March 1 saying that Crawford's opponent had been narrowed down to Diaz or [[Adrían Granados|Adrian Granados]]. [[Amir Imam]], ranked number 1 by the [[World Boxing Council|WBC]] was also in the mix, but Arum said that he found it difficult to make a deal with his promoter, [[Don King (boxing promoter)|Don King]].<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.ringtv.com/489706-crawford-diaz-granados-may-20-opponent/|title=Crawford down to Diaz and Granados for May 20 opponent – The Ring|date=2017-03-16|work=The Ring|access-date=2017-03-16|language=en-US}}</ref> Terms were finally agreed on March 22 for Crawford vs. Diaz at the [[Prudential Center]] in [[Newark, New Jersey|Newark]], [[New Jersey]], on May 20.

In front of a crowd of 8,026, Crawford retained his world titles after Diaz's trainer, [[Joel Díaz]] stopped the fight after round ten. Towards the end, Diaz did close to nothing, leaning against the ropes. This was mostly due to his vision, as his right eye was nearly closed and his left eye was also badly swollen. Crawford used his jab for most of the fight, and used it to control the pace and help him move around the ring in his [[southpaw stance]]. Joel Díaz said in the post-fight interview that he had pulled his fighter out because he was taking too much punishment. Also in the post-fight interview, Crawford said, "It's not up to me. But everybody wants to know who's the next guy that Terence Crawford wants to fight. I'll fight anybody. It doesn't matter who it is." He then called out [[Keith Thurman]]. Promoter Bob Arum mentioned Crawford would likely fight again in the summer, against [[Julius Indongo]], where the winner would be crowned the [[List of undisputed world boxing champions#Light welterweight|undisputed light welterweight champion]].<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.espn.co.uk/boxing/story/_/id/19428554/terence-crawford-defeats-felix-diaz-10th-round-tko-defend-junior-welterweight-titles|title=Crawford forces Diaz's corner to stop fight|work=ESPN.com|access-date=2017-05-23}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.boxingscene.com/terence-crawford-dominates-stops-felix-diaz-ten-results--116799|title=Terence Crawford Dominates, Stops Felix Diaz in Ten Rounds – Boxing News|website=boxingscene.com|date=20 May 2017 |language=en-us|access-date=2017-05-23}}</ref>

In front of 13,323 in attendance, the largest crowd he had drawn to date, Crawford came on strong in the final round to score a twelfth-round KO win to retain his WBO welterweight title.

Towards the end of round twelve, Crawford knocked down Benavidez, who fought with an injured knee, with a left-right combination, the final punch being a right uppercut. After Benavidez got back to his feet, Crawford landed a flurry of punches until referee Celestino Ruiz stepped in.

Towards the end, Diaz did close to nothing, leaning against the ropes. This was mostly due to his vision, as his right eye was nearly closed and his left eye was also badly swollen. Crawford used his jab for most of the fight, and used it to control the pace and help him move around the ring in his [[southpaw stance]]. Joel Díaz said in the post-fight interview that he had pulled his fighter out because he was taking too much punishment. Also in the post-fight interview, Crawford said, "It's not up to me. But everybody wants to know who's the next guy that Terence Crawford wants to fight. I'll fight anybody. It doesn't matter who it is." He then called out [[Keith Thurman]].
