Crawford Appears to Confirm Opponent

It seems that the WBA, WBC, and WBO welterweight champion Terence Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs) has confirmed his next fight against the WBA light middleweight champion Israel Madrimov.

Crawford shared a post on his Instagram announcing the date of their bout—August 3rd in California.

Previously, there were speculations that Crawford would make his debut in a new weight class against Madrimov, but plans were uncertain due to Jermall Charlo's potential return from a break to fight Madrimov for the title.
