Terence ‘Bud’ Crawford might very well be the No. 1 boxer in the world any day now as far as pound-for-pound rankings go. It’s an astonishing rise for the 34-year-old Nebraska native, who has yet to lose a fight in his professional career (38-0, 29 KOs). Even more astonishing: he might not even be the best athlete in his own family.
At least this week, that title belongs to his seven-year-old daughter, Talaya, who’s track meet on Saturday has gone viral for her incredible comeback victory.
After running out of her shoe on the starting blocks of a 200-meter sprint, Talaya calmly puts it back on as the rest of the pack dashes down the track. The mishap allowed the young Crawford to pull off a Rich Strike-like comeback and demolish the field to the finish line.
