Crawford Reveals His Retirement Plans from Boxing

The reigning welterweight world champion stated that he doesn't intend to fight up until his very last breath, but rather, wishes to exit the sport as a victor.

"I’m healthy as can be, I probably can fight until I’m like 45, but I always said I want to retire from boxing; I never wanted boxing to retire me.

I always looked at old fighters and felt bad; they can’t hold a conversation because of the damage they’ve accumulated. I never want to be like that. I want to be able to tell my story without somebody else telling it because I can’t speak. I’m going to retire on top," Crawford was quoted by Boxing News 24.
