Terence Crawford made history on Saturday night in Las Vegas, outpointing Canelo Álvarez by unanimous decision to become the undisputed super-middleweight champion of the world.
Before a record crowd of 70,482 at Allegiant Stadium – the largest boxing audience in the city’s history with a vast majority in support of Álvarez – the 37-year-old Crawford moved up two weight classes to hand the Mexican superstar only the third defeat of his career. The judges scored it 116-112, 115-113 and 115-113, all for Crawford, who improves to 42-0 with 31 knockouts. (The Guardian had it 118-110.)
