TERENCE CRAWFORD makes his highly-anticipated return to the ring TONIGHT in a thrilling world title clash against Israil Madrimov.

Bud hasn’t laced up his gloves since an emphatic 9th-round TKO victory against bitter rival Errol Spence last summer.

However, Crawford will be determined to keep his undefeated streak going by winning the world title even after moving up to 154lbs for tonight’s thrilling fight.

Before the main event, Andy Ruiz Jr’s eagerly anticipated bout with Jarrell Miller was controversially scored as a majority draw after 12 brutal rounds.

Live updates Terence Crawford vs. Israil Madrimov live results: Blow-by-blow Ruiz seems exhausted despite some early success. Round 1

Riyadh Season has reached Los Angeles and on Saturday night (6 p.m. ET, ESPN+ PPV), Terence Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs) faces WBA super welterweight champion Israil Madrimov (10-0-1, 7 KOs) in a highly anticipated bout at BMO Stadium. For most fighters, moving up in weight to capture another title is a career-defining feat. For Crawford, who has already held titles in three divisions, it has become almost routine.

Crawford, known for his exceptional fight IQ and technical ability, faces Madrimov, a naturally bigger and stronger opponent. While Crawford told Yahoo Sports he is confident in his body’s readiness to compete at 154 pounds, some believe he may be underestimating the risk. Madrimov’s trainer, Joel Diaz, suggested that Crawford, who began his pro career in 2009 at super lightweight, could face more danger than anticipated against a solid 154-pound fighter like Madrimov. At BetMGM, Crawford is a -600 favorite to defeat Madrimov, who is at +450.

Simone Biles Seemingly Takes Jab at Donald Trump After Paris Olympics Victory: “I Love My Black Job”

The superstar athletes’ comment came after Trump made baseless remarks about immigrants in the U.S. “taking Black jobs.”

Amid her celebrations after winning gold in the 2024 Paris Olympics individual all-around gymnastics final, Simone Biles seemingly took a jab at Donald Trump.

The superstar athlete, whose latest win is the sixth Olympic gold medal of her career, reflected on her achievements in a post on X, formerly Twitter, on Friday.

“I love my Black job,” Biles wrote, responding to a comment from singer-songwriter Ricky Davila, who initially said, “Simone Biles being the GOAT (greatest of all time), winning Gold medals and dominating gymnastics is her Black job.”

The star gymnasts’ comment appeared to be in reference to recent statements Trump has made, claiming immigrants in the U.S. are “taking Black jobs.” He made similar comments at the June 27 presidential debate and then again at the National Association of Black Journalists convention in Chicago earlier this week

“I will tell you that coming from the border, are millions and millions of people that happen to be taking Black jobs,” the former president said at the Chicago convention.

When asked to explain his baseless remark, Trump added, “A Black job is anybody that has a job. That’s what it is. Anybody that has — they’re taking the employment away from Black people. They’re coming in, and they’re coming in, they’re invading.”

At the same convention, Trump also faced criticism after questioning Vice President Kamala Harris’ identity as a Black woman. “She was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage,” he said to the room full of Black journalists. “I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago, when she happened to turn Black, and now she wants to be known as Black. So I don’t know, is she Indian or is she Black?

“I respect either one, but she obviously doesn’t, because she was Indian all the way, and then all of a sudden, she made a turn and she went — she became a Black person,” Trump added about Harris, who is of both Jamaican and Indian heritage. “I think somebody should look into that too.”

Harris’ campaign quickly responded to the GOP presidential nominee’s statements, calling his hostility “simply a taste of the chaos and division” that Trump’s campaign seeks for a second term in the White House.

Money Team Boss Shares Extraordinary Detail on How Long Floyd Mayweather Will Keep Fighting

Following the knockout win over Conor McGregor back in 2017, Floyd Mayweather Jr transitioned from high-level opposition to younger, more vigorous challenges that keep him active and keeps his paychecks rolling. Mayweather has tangled with Japanese kickboxing star Tenhsin Nasukawa, UK reality star Aaron Chamers, YouTube sensation turned WWE superstar Logan Paul, and now, John Gotti III, grandson to the notorious mob boss.

‘Money’ Mayweather is nearing 50, but he lives a clean lifestyle. The 50-0 pro boxer has a legendary training regimen that he acquired from being inside boxing gyms since he was a youngster watching his father Floyd Sr and uncle Roger Mayweather fight professionally at a respectable level. Boxing is ingrained in Mayweather’s DNA.

And he may continue to fight these big budget exhibition matches well into his 50s, according to the President of The Money Team, James McNair.

Floyd Mayweather and John Gotti III Face Off Before Match at Hunt & Fish Club

Midtown’s beloved restaurant made ready to rumble a grand affair

We were ready to rumble in the most delicious way.

Hunt & Fish Club in Manhattan this week hosted a rather epic match off before the big night between Floyd Mayweather and John Gotti III.

The luxurious Midtown dining hotspot owned by Nelson Braff and Eytan Sugarman took the spotlight during the history-making fight announcement. At the starry affair was also John Gotti Jr who came out to support and help bounce off the fighting words of Mayweather.

John Gotti III Wants Floyd Mayweather to Feel The Wrath of War

When the public hears the name John Gotti they may remember the infamous mob boss from the 1980s, but that surname has a new meaning in 2024. Grandson to the feared mafioso frontman, John Gotti III chose an alternative type of violence, which found him entering a local MMA promotion on Long Island, NY about 10 years ago.

Since turning pro in 2017, Gotti III has always been in the spotlight in the local fight scene, but after jumping in the ring with one of the greatest boxers of all-time, Floyd Mayweather Jr, last year, the Gotti name became a topic of conversation once again. The 31-year-old New Yorker was outgunned in the first fight but believes he has fixed his weaknesses. The first fight was heavily in favor of Mayweather Jr, but the fight will be remembered for having high emotions that resulted in a brawl.

Terence Crawford gives insight on Floyd Mayweather’s elite mindset that would see him train hard after partying at 4am

Terence Crawford is more like Floyd Mayweather than first meets the eye.

Both boxers have very different fighting styles but align when it comes to their elite mindsets.

“I’m kind of lame, I don’t gamble, I don’t party, I don’t drink, I’ve never smoked, nothing,” Crawford told Logan Paul’s Impaulsive podcast.

Asked whether other boxers do the same, Crawford replied: “The only person I can honestly say besides the partying is Floyd Mayweather because he didn’t drink or smoke.

“He would party but he would go and run six miles after he partied at 4 o’clock in the morning.”

It was this commitment to his craft that paved the way for a long and illustrious tenure in the paid ranks.

During a professional career stretching from 1996 to 2017, Mayweather built up an unblemished 50-0 record including wins over several current and future Hall of Famers such as Manny Pacquiao, Oscar De La Hoya, Canelo Alvarez and Miguel Cotto.

He is also a five-weight world champion and three-weight lineal champion.

But he never achieved undisputed status in any of the divisions he fought in.

Mayweather came closest to unifying all four major sanctioning body belts in 2015 when he defeated Pacquiao for the WBC, WBA, and WBO welterweight titles.

He could have then gone on to face Kell Brook, who was the IBF champion at the time.

However, Mayweather refused to pay a sanctioning fee to the WBO after his fight with ‘Pac Man’ and was subsequently stripped of their version of the world title.
