Crawford hit the table against Spence

One of the most expected fights of the year featured a showdown between the two best welterweights of the moment with a reserved prognosis by the specialists. The T-Mobile Arena, in Las Vegas, Nevada, witnessed a great performance of Terence Crawford, who won the undisputed title of the category with a technical knockout in 10 rounds over Errol Spence.

The parity that was expected amidst the great atmosphere in “Sin City” was broken by the superiority of the Omaha native, who snatched the World Boxing Association (WBA), WBC and IBF belts from Spence and joined them to the WBO belt already in his possession.
