Terence Crawford is gearing up for his super welterweight debut in an exciting WBA title fight against champion Israil Madrimov.
The showdown is set for August 3, and Crawford, the former undisputed welterweight champion, is fully focused on the upcoming bout.
Following his welterweight title victory over Errol Spence Jr. In 2023, Crawford expressed interest in a match against undisputed super middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez.
However, as he prepares for his WBA title fight with Madrimov, Crawford has put any discussions about Alvarez on hold.
The undefeated fighter (40-0) is determined to win the undisputed titles at 154 pounds, with Madrimov being the first challenger. During a recent media appearance, Crawford addressed the possibility of a future clash with Alvarez.
“My mind is crystal clear on one thing. That’s August 3rd and that’s Israil Madrimov. I’m not thinking about, worrying about Canelo or anyone else, for that matter. August 3rd is the only fight that’s in the back of my mind, in the front of my mind, in the side of my mind,” Crawford declared.
Many expect Crawford’s debut at 154 pounds to be successful. Turki Alalshikh, who arranged the upcoming fight, has already shown interest in scheduling Crawford against Jaron Ennis or Canelo Alvarez next.
However, leading boxing promoter Eddie Hearn believes Madrimov could pose a significant challenge.
“I’ve got to say, and I really mean this, I’ve got bad, bad feelings for Terence Crawford against Israil Madrimov. Because all I hear is Crawford-Canelo, Crawford-Boots, Crawford-this. He is fighting the biggest puncher he’s ever faced on August 3rd… I’m telling you now, if Crawford gets hit on the chin by Israil Madrimov, he is gonna really, really know about it,” Hearn admitted.
“I’ve got a really sneaky feeling for my guy on August 3rd, I really have. I think it’s a really tough fight.”
The clash between Crawford and Madrimov on August 3 for the WBA super welterweight title promises to be a thrilling encounter.
