Terence "Bud" Crawford has stunned the boxing world once again, defeating Saul "Canelo" Álvarez by unanimous decision in their blockbuster clash at Allegiant Stadium.

Crawford has now become the undisputed super-middleweight champion.

Already the undisputed welterweight champion, Crawford moved up in weight to take on Canelo — a four-division titleholder and one of the sport’s biggest names.

The fight went the full 12 rounds, with all three judges scoring in Crawford’s favour.

Crawford says he is not here by coincidence.

He says Canelo is a great champion, a great competitor and he has great respect for him.

He adds he fought like a champion.

When asked if he will fight again, he says he does not know as he he will sit down with his team and talk about it.
