Terence "Bud" Crawford is one of the most decorated fighters in boxing, born on September 28, 1987, in Omaha, Nebraska. Crawford hails from a family with a good boxing background and he started his boxing career at the C.W. Boxing Club under the mentorship of Midge Minor. Despite a challenging upbringing, including a near-fatal shooting incident, Crawford's dedication to boxing never wavered. Crawford's amateur career was impressive, with victorious runs at the 2006 National PAL Championships and the U.S. Pan American Games Box-Offs. He debuted in the professional arena back in 2008 and had an equally fast climb up the ladder, conquering Brian Cummings via a knockout in his debut.
Crawford’s breakout fight was in 2014 when he earned his first world title at lightweight by besting Ricky Burns for the WBO title. Crawford would then go on to become the undisputed junior welterweight champion of the world in 2017 by collecting all four major belts. Moving up to welterweight, he captured the WBO title from Jeff Horn in 2018 and successfully defended it six times, including a hallmark win over Errol Spence Jr. Known for his strategic fighting style, Crawford is adept at switching stances and utilizing a strong jab. His ability to adapt mid-fight and deliver powerful finishes makes him an elusive opponent. As of July 2024, Crawford is an undefeated professional and is gearing up to fight Israil Madrimov for the WBA super welterweight title on August 3, 2024, in Los Angeles.
