Terence "Bud" Crawford moved up two weight classes and recorded a career-high weigh-in at 167.5 pounds, matching Saúl "Canelo" Álvarez for their super middleweight title fight. The bout is scheduled for Saturday at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas and will stream on Netflix. The fight will determine legacies, test Crawford's undefeated status, and decide supremacy among today's top pound-for-pound boxers. Álvarez will mark 20 years in the sport in October and will fight his 21st time in Las Vegas. The WBC will award a special ring to the bout winner. Crawford displayed more defined muscles after gaining weight. A rowdy crowd is expected for Mexican Independence Day weekend.
