Where Can I Watch The Crawford Fight
No Love didn't necessarily look to end the fight in the fifth round, but he continued to put on the finishing touches of a fight that could and should launch him into stardom, as noted by Brett Okamoto of ESPN.com:
"I'm very happy and humbled to win this title for my family and for Mexico," said Cruz. "I was prepared for this. I wasn't here to just fight. I was here to terminate him...I did my talking right here in the ring. And I did this not just for me, but for everybody that is here at T-Mobile Arena. There's going to be a Mexican champ at 140 pounds for a long time."
Yet if ‘Bud’ gets the job done against Madrimov and then Fundora, that would just leave Bakhram Murtazaliev (IBF) in Crawford’s way to become a three-weight undisputed champion after just three fights in the division.
Those clamoring for a rematch between Gervonta "Tank" Davis and "Pitbull" Cruz should take a closer look at both men. Davis is known for his power but is an excellent overall boxer. Cruz has some power but not enough to compensate for his other deficiencies. If Cruz wants to be a champion at 135 pounds, he needs to add more dimensions to his game.
Round 8: Spence needs a miracle to turn this one around. Crawford staying methodical, he knows he doesn’t need to take any big risks. It’s on Spence to press the action. Crawford connects with a jab, followed by a body combination. Crawford jabs the body. Right hook scores for Crawford and Spence wobbles, but stays up. Spence eating punch after punch and doing just enough to avoid the KO. Crawford’s jab is shutting Spence down.
Kavaliauskas (21-0-1, 17 KOs) hasn't won a fight since November 2018, when he defeated Roberto Arriaza by third-round KO. In March, Kavaliauskas fought to a majority draw against Ray Robinson in a tough bout in Philadelphia.
It was an absolute clinic from three-division champion Crawford, also previously undisputed at light-welterweight, dropping a stunned Spence to the canvas for the first time in his professional career at the end of round two and twice more in the seventh before a one-sided beatdown was finally halted by the referee in round nine.
Romero was able to show enough movement and ring savvy to push the fight into the second half. He also attempted to strategically hold and keep Cruz off of him, but was deducted a point in round five for excessively holding. Despite these efforts, he was once again hurt late in round seven, this time from an onslaught that began with a straight right hand to the head.

"People don’t know how long that’s been manifesting inside him, inside the gym and inside the team. Now we’re at this point, and there will be no stones unturned," BoMac said. The disrespect they’ve felt for years, like they’re the B-side in this fight, BoMac believed would turn Bud into something boxing hasn’t seen yet. "Keep treating us like we the m— B-side," he said. "Keep throwin’ dirt in our face. Like, f– y’all, we just here to fill a spot. Nah, m—, you just here to fill that spot. The reality is that the real boxing world knows who the best m— fighter is."

10:18 p.m. ET: Well, Cabrera isn't fighting a great fight as he keeps his hands low, chin high and is just circling the ring. It's only a matter of time before Cruz catches him. Meanwhile, celebrities like Andre 3000, Chris Brown, E-40, Damian Lillard and others are taking their seats in the arena.
By the seventh, the action was becoming uncomfortable to watch, and "Bud" scored two more heavy knockdowns. When referee Harvey Dock mercifully stopped the contest in the ninth, Spence was on the verge of being seriously hurt.
