Crawford Considers Moving Up a Division

According to insider Michael Benson, American WBO, WBC, and WBA welterweight champion Terence Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs) has stated he may move up to super welterweight (up to 154 lbs) and face the winner of the bout between WBO champion Tim Tszyu (24-0, 17 KOs) and Keith Thurman (30-1, 22 KOs).

"Tszyu has a tough fight against Thurman. Hopefully, after this fight, we'll see what the next step is. We have a few guys on the list for my next fight – Tszyu, Thurman. One of them," Crawford said.

The bout between Tim Tszyu and Keith Thurman is scheduled for March 30 in Las Vegas, USA.

Terence Crawford last entered the ring in July of the previous year against Errol Spence Jr. (28-1, 22 KOs) and won by technical knockout.
