Amanda Serrano, Puerto Rico’s pride, reigns as the undisputed Featherweight world champion since 2019. In addition to a remarkable Guinness World Record, she has won 9 major world titles across seven diverse weight classes. No wonder she is the trailblazing female champion from Puerto Rico. The boxer will defend her undisputed Featherweight champion status against Danila Ramos in a never-before bout with a twist.

Amanda Serrano takes inspiration from Terence Crawford

At the age of 38, Ramos has participated in three “interim” title bouts during her career. She faced a unanimous decision loss to Elhem Mekhaled for the WBC interim junior lightweight title in 2019 and later experienced a split decision defeat to Katharina Thanderz for the same title in the same year. However, she managed to secure victory against Carabajal for the “interim” WBO Featherweight title in August.

“Bud” successfully defended his Welterweight title five times and his wins include matches against Jose Benavidez Jr., Amir Khan, Egidijus Kavaliauskas, Kell Brook, and Shawn Porter. The upcoming bout will be Serrano’s 4th title defence. She is eager to catch up to Crawford. “I’m Finally here in The Dominican Republic at the @WorldBoxingOrg convention with my buddy & partner in Fighter of the yr the 1 & Only @terencecrawford. He has the record of 5 times I’m closing in w/4 lol. Always a pleasure sharing with this Legend BUD Crawford “ said the first undisputed Puerto Rican Champion on her X account

Changing the women’s boxing landscape

Serrano, the undisputed Featherweight champion, is set to defend her three world titles against the mandatory WBO challenger, Ramos on October 27 in Orlando, Florida. This historic bout will feature 12 three-minute rounds instead of the standard 10 two-minute rounds. This will mark the first women’s unified championship fight conducted under men’s regulations. The step-up is a major one. Such a change could boost women’s boxing’s appeal significantly. It’s important to note that shorter fight times can lead to fewer stoppages and knockouts, elements celebrated in the sport and often utilized for publicity. The new regulations take care of this drawback.

As Serrano lauds Crawford for being one of the best, she is making history herself. With an indomitable spirit, she pulls women’s boxing forward with her. How do you think this unconventional fight will go down

Kyrone Davis says Terence Crawford will need the perfect performance for him to defeat Canelo Alvarez due to the Mexican star’s size, power, and experience advantage. The super middleweight, Kyrone, who has sparred with Canelo & Crawford, feels that Alvarez has the power and size, making it very difficult for the 147-lb Terence to win. Davis knows how hard Canelo hits and how big he is compared to Crawford and feels that the Omaha, Nebraska native would be up against it if he shared the ring with the King.

Assuming Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs) chooses not to get acclimated to the 168-lb division next year by going up and taking on the likes of David Benavidez, Demetrius Andrade, or David Morrell, he would be jumping up 21 lbs for a payday against Canelo (60-2-2, 39 KOs). The experience or lack thereof for Crawford would make it doubly hard trying to defeat a talent like Canelo because he doesn’t have the experience to knock him off his perch at the top of the super middleweight division.

Given Crawford’s advantage age at 36, he would need to gain experience in a hurry by moving up to 168 right away to take on the murderer’s row of contenders that are at the head of the line in the rankings, waiting impatiently for their shot at Canelo.

Canelo obviously knows why Crawford is interested in fighting him, and that’s why he’s let the media know that it’s not going to happen. What’s disappointing about this is the fact that Crawford isn’t willing to at least try and earn the fight with Canelo by moving up to 168 and giving his best shot to knock off two or three of the top dogs: Benavidez, Morrell & Andrade. If Crawford beat the ‘Big Three’ at 168, he can say, ‘See, I did it. I earned it. I’m not just a  needy, money-hungry desperado looking for a payday.‘

It would take courage for Crawford to put his hide at risk against the ‘Big Three,’ and that’s obviously why he’s trying so hard to talk his way into the fight with Canelo rather than risking his backside against those killers. Although Crawford has been professional for fifteen years, he’s fought just once elite-level fighter, Errol Spence Jr., and he obviously drained & a physical wreck of the guy he’d been four years earlier before his devasting car crash in 2019. “Tall Task” For Crawford To Beat Canelo “I’ve been in the ring with Crawford too. I got Crawford ready for when he fought Shawn Porter. I was with him for a few weeks,” said Kyrone Davis to YSM Sports Media, who helped Terence Crawford with sparring in the past and has also sparred with Canelo Alvarez.

Fighting the next available welterweight contender doesn’t excite Terence Crawford. He’s 36 now and has punched people in the face for a living for a decade and a half. It’s been fun. It also made him a rich man.

The demolition job he pulled on Errol Spence Jr. pushed his fame to another level. Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs) has been spotted on practically every radio and television show in America. His trophy case might be filled to the brim with countless world titles but his newly won welterweight belts haven’t been able to fill the void that now exists.

The Omaha, Nebraska, native isn’t totally interested in facing Errol Spence Jr. in a rematch. Nor does he find a showdown against Jermell Charlo even remotely interesting anymore. Instead, Crawford wants to add a few more portions of food onto his plate, move up 21 pounds, and take on Canelo Alvarez for the undisputed super middleweight throne.

Currently, Alvarez has a long list of names that want to fight him. Demetrius Andrade, of course, is one of them. News of Crawford wanting to brazenly stomp around his division was somewhat surprising. All in all, Andrade likes Crawford. He also reveres him. Still, he isn’t willing to be mendacious towards the pound-for-pound star and his chances at doing anything at 168 pounds.

“That’s my boy but don’t come up here and get f—– up,” Andrade told BoxingScene.com. “It’s a big difference, it’s a big difference.”

It’s all about big money fights that will enhance his legacy at this point. Crawford admitted that the sand in his hourglass is running low.

Getting into the ring with Alvarez would likely give Crawford the sort of money that would set up his family tree forever. And, if he grabs the win, he’ll eternally be mentioned in the greatest of all-time conversation.

Andrade doesn’t want to be flippant. Crawford is a great fighter, Andrade has acknowledged that several times over. But you know the old saying right? Skills pay the bills. There’s a lot of truth in that. However, skills and abilities are thrown out the window when you step into the ring with someone who weighs significantly more than you.

“He got the skills but there’s skilled fighters up here. Plus we’ll be able to bully him at the end of the day.”

American heavyweight Richard Torrez Jr is one of the country’s best hopes of challenging for a heavyweight world title in years to come.

However, the 24-year-old has admitted that he got his ‘butt kicked’ by the current undisputed welterweight champion, Terence Crawford – albeit not in the boxing ring.

Torrez won a rare Olympic super-heavyweight silver medal for the USA at Tokyo 2020 and has made a stellar start to life as a professional. The 24-year-old southpaw has gone 6-0 since debuting in March 2022, with each of those wins coming via knockout and four of those stoppages occurring in the opening round.

However, that power proved to be no match for Crawford, who showed he can handle himself against the bigger men in a wrestling match, Torrez told FightHype.

The verdict bodes well for Crawford as he continues to push for a fight with Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez three divisions up.

Torrez Jr will aim to make it seven straight knockouts as a professional as he takes on Tyrell Herndon (21-4) on Saturday night on the Alimkhanuly-Gualtieri undercard, live on ESPN.

After demolishing Errol Spence Jr. in July 2023, Terence Crawford has publicly expressed his desire to go up against the legendary Canelo Alvarez. Canelo, however, has scoffed at the idea of facing Crawford, as he has nothing to gain from the fight. Yet, that has hardly stopped Crawford from calling out Canelo for a fight. Now, Gennady Golovkin’s former trainer has come forward to shed light on a potential match between Crawford and Canelo.

Crawford recently made the headlines after Canelo defeated Jermell Charlo in a dominating show of performance. Following the win, Crawford announced he was no longer interested in fighting Jermell Charlo. While Crawford’s potential fight against Canelo hangs in the fray, some people in the boxing world have questioned the viability of the fight. During a recent interview, a legendary boxing trainer, Abel Sanchez, shared a similar opinion about Crawford moving up three weight divisions to fight ‘Cinnamon.’

Abel Sanchez claims it would be a big money fight

While appearing in an interview with Fight Hub TV, Sanchez stated, “I scoffed about the idea of him [Canelo] even considering Crawford.” Sanchez clarified that Canelo has nothing to gain from the fight against Crawford. He further explained Crawford was a great fighter and looked great in his fight against Spence. However, when discussing the fight against Canelo, Sanchez stated, “Moving up to fight Canelo would be a dumb idea for him.”

Later in the interview, Sanchez claimed Eddie Hearn is trying to restore Canelo’s legacy by arranging a rematch between Canelo and Dmitry Bivol. However, Sanchez stated, “In my opinion, I will stay away from Bivol.”

Terence Crawford accuses Canelo Alvarez

While Canelo has not completely ruled out a fight against Crawford, he has claimed it’s not part of his plans. Not to mention, Canelo once asserted he won’t fight below 168 pounds. However, Crawford shared one of Canelo’s interviews from 2020, which contradicts Canelo’s statement about facing Crawford.

Despite the predictions from experts, Crawford seems adamant about fighting Canelo. Just like Crawford, Charlo moved up two weight divisions, which did not end well for him. However, only time can tell what would happen if the two fighters come face-to-face. Until then, let us know what you think about the potential fight

Brian ‘BoMac’ McIntyre is a free man.

The boxing trainer, who coaches Terence Crawford and Chris Eubank Jr, pleaded guilty to his charges of ‘possession of a firearm’ and ‘possession of ammunition for a firearm without a certificate’ at Manchester Crown Court on Monday, but was given just a 20-month suspended sentence.

McIntyre had been in the UK guiding Eubank Jr to his rematch victory over Liam Smith on September 2 in Manchester.

However when he attempted to fly home to Atlanta the following morning, the 53-year-old was arrested by armed police.

A scan of his luggage showed a gun with a magazine inside, prompting security officials to raise the alarm.

McIntyre was taken into custody and subsequently charged with ‘possession of a firearm’ and ‘possession of ammunition for a firearm without a certificate’.

A statement from Greater Manchester Police said at the time: “At around 10:45am on Sunday 3 September 2023, officers were called to reports of a possible firearm being found in hold luggage by airport staff at Manchester Airport.

“After initial inspection by security staff, GMP officers attended, and the firearm was seized.

“Subsequently, a 53-year-old man was arrested for possession of a firearm and was taken to custody for further questioning.

“Brian McIntyre (01/07/1970) from the United States of America was charged with possession of a firearm and possession of ammunition for a firearm without a certificate.

Terence Crawford went on an archaeology expedition and unsurfaced an ancient interview done by Canelo Alvarez, saying he’d move down from 168 to 160 to face Errol Spence Jr. The interview that Crawford dug up from Canelo was in 2020 before his second fight at 168. Up until then, Canelo had only once fought at 168, and that was against Rocky Fielding, so he hadn’t fully grown into the weight class like he is now. The fact that Crawford is stooping to the level of unburying timeworn interviews of Canelo shows his desperation and grasping for anything he can to get that lucrative fight.

This information won’t help Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs) create the kind of pressure on Canelo from the public for the Nebraska native to get the final payday to move to Beverly Hills to rub shoulders with the movie stars. Who wouldn’t want to live on Rodeo Drive? Canelo received zero credit from fans for his recent win over 154-pounder Jermell Charlo, and he’s not going to go one step further by selecting the 147-lb Crawford for his next fight.

Crawford must really think Canelo was born yesterday if he thinks he’d be willing to waste another one of his fights by fighting another smaller fighter like himself.
Even if Canelo evaporates the 36-year-old Crawford with one of his uppercuts, fans aren’t going to give him any credit due to Terence’s size and his age. In the three-year-old interview by Canelo in 2020 with Fight Hub TV, before his fight with Callum Smith, the Mexican star said, “It’s an interesting fight. Errol Spence is a great fighter. If he wants to go up in weight, then that could be a good fight.

That’s something we could still do. We could still go down to 160.” In December 2020, Errol Spence Jr. had just finished fighting for the first time since his horrifying car crash in 2019, and he was still viewed as a top fighter. By the time Crawford fought Spence in July, the effects of a previous car accident, inactivity, weight issues, and wear from previous fights were evident. Obviously, the best way for Crawford to go about getting the Canelo fight would be to knock off the highest-ranked contender at 168 by facing David Benavidez or David Morrell Jr. to earn the shot.
