Terence Crawford’s triumph on September 13th is destined to

By
Terence Crawford

Terence Crawford’s triumph on September 13th is destined to secure him a spot in the annals of boxing history.

A win over Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez is monumental and would be the third undisputed title of the American’s career if he could pull off the feat.

Advised by a former Canelo opponent to focus on his legs, the Omaha fighter will need to make the two-weight divisions jump comfortably to maintain his speed and slick movements

Terence Crawford may not have to worry too much about the advantage Alvarez has in the weight department because of a certain attribute

Terence Crawford’s advantage is not just his physicality against Canelo Alvarez, says Chris Algieri

Chris Algieri, the former WBO super lightweight champion, has been a huge fan of ‘Bud’ for his 41-fight career, and he knows exactly what makes him different from the Mexican.

Speaking to Fight Hub TV, Algieri held back on a full prediction for the bout but offered up an interesting piece of analysis.

“We are still pretty far away from that fight, I’m going to hold my complete analytics on the fight but I will tell you this.

Terence Crawford

“I’ve seen Canelo pushed around, I’ve never seen Terence pushed around, so when you talk about who is going to be the boss, I’ve never seen anyone boss Terence Crawford around, but I have seen Canelo get bossed.”

Fans will still look to his win against Israil Madrimov and use it as an example of weight being an issue, but he was still able to put pressure on the Uzbek boxer to get the win.

While he’s never seen the 37-year-old controlled in the ring, it is also his mind that gives him a huge competitive edge in the bout.

“There are so many different things you can talk about, but from a psychological standpoint, who is fresher, who is meaner, and who wants it more, that’s going to come into play,” he said.

“From a psychological standpoint, ‘Bud’s’ just different.”

Terence Crawford’s only time fighting outside of America was his first world title win 11 years ago

After years of picking up titles in four different divisions, he has fought primarily in his home country of America under the Top Rank banner.

However, there was only one time he travelled outside of the US, and it was across the pond to pick up his first-ever world title in the lightweight division.

Interestingly, it was in Scotland against reigning champion Ricky Burns in 2014 with a comprehensive unanimous decision.

His dominance in the bout was displayed by his 45% landing of power shots, which kept Burns at bay for the 12 rounds.

Although, he has fought the likes of Amir Khan and Kell Brook, the former undisputed welterweight champion has made his foes travel as the A-side.

Junior PGA Championship Reaches Fever Pitch as Charlie Woods Powers Through Final Round — Live Coverage

While the PGA Championship is a major held in May, the Jr. PGA Championship is held at the end of July or the beginning of August. While winning the event is already an accomplishment, the bigger prize is that the golfers who finish in the top two, automatically qualify for the Junior Ryder Cup Team.

The 16-year-old Charlie Woods is competing at the 2025 Jr. PGA Championship. Through the first three rounds, Woods is sitting in second place with a 12-under. He trails Lunden Esterline, who takes a 19-under into the final round of the tournament. Woods will play one final round on Friday at the Birck Boilermaker Golf Complex in West Lafayette, Indiana, to try to notch his first junior major win, as well as qualify for the Jr. Ryder Cup team.

1:45 p.m. — Woods tallied a bogey on No. 14. He moves to 11-under for the tournament. Still, a very good score, but with four holes left and four strokes to make up to join the junior Ryder Cup team, time is running out.

1:15 p.m. — Woods picks up a birdie on No. 12. He has plenty more work to do in the last six holes, but it’s a positive step.

12:53 p.m. — Woods opens the back frame with a bogey on No. 10. He is still at 12-under and in sole possession of sixth place on the leaderboard. Second place has moved to 16-under.

12:27 p.m. — Woods bogeyed the ninth hole. He drops into a tie for sixth place heading into the back nine. The leader is at 20-under, and second place is at 15-under. Woods has work to do on the final nine of the tournament.

12:11 p.m. — Woods saved par on No. 8 with an impressive shot out of the trees. He is still tied for fourth at 13-under.

11:45 a.m. — Woods picked up a much-needed birdie on the fifth hole, his first of the day.

11:17 a.m. — Unfortunately for Woods, he has notched four pars in a row. While it is good that he is staying steady, he has now dropped into a tie for fourth place and will need to get some birdies to have a shot at staying in the top two.

10:45 a.m. — Woods started his day with back-to-back pars. Pennson Badgett, who was tied with Woods entering the day at 12-under, is two-under to begin the day, so Woods is in a tie for third.

Tiger woods

8:45 a.m. — Woods is scheduled to tee off at 10:06 a.m.

Charlie Woods highlights

Woods is underway for the final round of the Junior PGA Championship

Woods needs to finish in the top two at the Jr. PGA Championships in order to automatically qualify for the team.

There is also the possibility that he is selected as a captain’s pick; however, given that he is ranked 20th in the latest American Junior Golf Association rankings, it is unlikely that he will be selected.

Boxing Star Gervonta Davis and Vanessa Posso Locked in Violent Dispute and High-Stakes Custody Clash

WBA lightweight champion Gervonta Davis is widely regarded as one of boxing’s biggest stars. The undefeated Baltimore native has made a significant impact on the sport, solidifying his place among the best fighters in the game. Yet, while his accomplishments in the ring are well-documented, aspects of his personal life remain less familiar to some boxing fans—such as his relationship with Vanessa Posso.

Posso, of course, is not only Davis’ girlfriend but also the mother of his children. As Davis prepares to defend his title against WBA super featherweight champion Lamont Roach Jr. on March 1 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, here’s everything you need to know about the woman by his side.

Who is Vanessa Posso? Is she still with Gervonta Davis?

Vanessa Posso made her name in the boxing world after she started dating the champ, Gervonta Davis. But being with one of the best boxers in the world did not stop her from achieving success of her own. She did not let Davis’s popularity overshadow her. According to Famous Birthdays, Posso was born on May 30, 1988, and is currently 36 years old.

Posso is an Instagram model and influencer with a fan following of over 700,000 on the platform. She has also entered the world of business and has her own Jewelry brand, RichKidz, which specializes in body chains and sterling silver jewelry. The couple is not married as of now but has been in a relationship for a long time. According to reports, they have been dating since January 2022.

Vanessa Posso and Gervonta Davis share two children, a daughter and a son. Their daughter, Giovanna, was born in October 2021, while their son, Gianni Bryant Davis, arrived on August 14, 2024. Notably, while Gianni is Davis’ only son, Posso has an older daughter from a previous relationship. She shares 12-year-old Jada Milan with rapper Suga J from their time together.

Controversial past between Vanessa Posso and Gervonta Davis

Gervonta Davis and Vanessa Posso’s relationship has been marked by controversy, with legal issues casting a shadow over their history. The first controversy between the couple made headlines when Gervonta Davis confessed to having cheated on his girlfriend. And took to Instagram to make some bold claims about himself. And these claims by Davis started an online feud between his girlfriend Posso and Ashley Burgos, the girl he was cheating with allegedly. The online feud went on to such an extent that the two challenged each other to meet in LA.

The most recent incident occurred in December 2022 when Davis was arrested in Broward County, Florida, for allegedly striking Posso during an altercation. Police reports stated that Davis used a “closed hand type slap,” leaving Posso with a small abrasion on her upper lip. However, Posso later recanted, calling her initial report “unnecessary” and formally requesting that the charges be dropped. Despite her statement, prosecutors initially pursued the case before eventually dropping it months later.

This wasn’t the first time Davis faced domestic violence allegations. In February 2020, he was arrested in Miami for allegedly assaulting his ex-girlfriend Andretta Smothers, the mother of his first daughter. A viral video showed him grabbing Smothers at a charity basketball game. That case dragged on for nearly three years before charges were abandoned in December 2022, just weeks before his arrest involving Posso.

Manny Pacccquiao

Although the legal issues have been resolved, Davis remains a polarizing figure. His talent in the ring keeps him in the spotlight but repeated off-the-ring controversies continue to raise questions about his personal life and public image.

That being said, Gervonta Davis seems to have a complicated relationship with his girlfriend and the mother of his children Vanessa Posso. What are your thoughts on the matter?

Tyson Fury Breaks Silence with Explosive Message on Potential Wembley Showdown with Anthony Joshua

Tyson Fury has given his thoughts on a potential all-British fight against Anthony Joshua during an interview ahead of Daniel Dubois and Oleksandr Usyk’s undisputed clash.

Fury, 36, has not fought since sustaining a second consecutive defeat to Usyk, 38, in Saudi Arabia in December 2024.

Then, in January 2025, the self-proclaimed ‘Gypsy King’ announced his retirement from the sport in a video posted to his social media channels.

In the clip, he said: “Hi everybody, I’m going to make this short and sweet, I’d like to announce my retirement from boxing. It’s been a blast. I’ve loved every single minute of it.”

However, he could be set to make a U-turn. Saudi boxing chief Turki Alalshikh posted an ominous message on X earlier this month, which nodded towards a potential return for Fury.

He wrote: “The ‘Gypsy King’ will be back!!! I talked with him, and I have his word to have him in Riyadh Season in 2026 … We have a rabbit to hunt!”

It is still unclear if, when or who Fury will face if he does indeed return to action, but the obvious contenders are Usyk, Dubois and long-time foe Joshua.

Usyk and Dubois’ next steps will be heavily influenced by tonight’s result, but Joshua has already made his feelings clear on potentially facing Fury.

In January, Joshua said: “It’s a fight I want to see because I am a fan of boxing. When I am in the gym, everyone is asking me [about this fight]. I ain’t got many years ahead of me. I want to leave the game with a bang and make an impact.

“Everyone is asking me the same question. It’s up to me to deliver; that’s why I’m saying it has to happen this year.

“I think we can make this fight happen.”

Joshua is currently recovering from surgery on his elbow. As for Fury, he has returned to the media spotlight this week and spoke to Ring Magazine on Saturday.

Fury said: “He’s coming off a spectacular knockout to a local kid and I’m coming off a debatable decision to the undisputed champion.

“It’s good to give the fans what they want, but is it really worth my health?

“I go to these events and see some of these old-time champions, and some of them get lost in the bathroom, and I don’t want to be like that.”

Anthony Joshua Sparks Career Shockwave with Cryptic Message to Eddie Hearn Hinting at Major Move

Anthony Joshua has teased a stunning venture with his boxing promoter Eddie Hearn, proposing a major career change.

Joshua has enjoyed a legendary boxing career, having won an Olympic gold medal as an amateur before claiming world titles as a professional.

During the course of his glittering pro career, ‘AJ’ has picked up the IBF, WBA (super) and WBO world heavyweight belts.

But the 35-year-old’s pro career is coming to an end, with Hearn previously suggesting his star client has ‘two or three fights’ left before he hangs up the gloves for good.

And it appears he has his eyes on a new job once he calls time on his boxing career.

Joshua has hinted at getting into football, specifically the agency industry.

What’s more, he wants to team up with Hearn, who runs the boxing operations at Matchroom, which also oversees events in darts and snooker.

On Instagram, Joshua tagged the boxing promoter and posted: “The family has conquered darts, snooker, pool, boxing, fishing, golf, owning a football club & you’ve had a presence in basketball, netball & gymnastics.

“I believe ‘we’ could look at the football agency industry and have a strong presence.

“Imagine we help manage the player who helped England win the World Cup. Call me tomorrow mate.”

In 2020, Hearn revealed him and Joshua were talking about a move into football.

“Do you know what? I’ll just say it. Me and AJ are talking about doing it,” said the 46-year-old of moving into football.

“We’ve looked at it for a while and he mentioned it to me the other day and he said, ‘You know how to represent athletes, you can use my brand and my name, I know a lot of the players, we go out. You know how to build a career on the pitch and off the pitch commercially, so what do you think?’

“It may not happen, but we’re looking at it. Could be fun.”

Unexpected Anthony Joshua And Eddie Hearn Urged to Take on Stunning New Venture Outside Boxing

THROUGHOUT his professional boxing career, Anthony Joshua has been promoted by Eddie Hearn and the pair have built both a formidable business relationship and friendship. Now, ‘AJ’ has shared an idea for Hearn and himself to tackle a new business venture, as his retirement from boxing nears.

Just last week, Anthony Joshua, 28-4 (25 KOs), took to social media to pay credit to both Eddie Hearn and Matchroom Boxing after 12 years working with the promotional outfit, dating back to his 2013 pro debut.

Joshua stated that ’12 years ago, he signed with Matchroom Boxing and 12 years later he will throw his last punch with them’, insinuating that his next fight could be his last.

Now, again on his Instagram, Joshua has continued to look towards life after boxing, this time suggesting that the dynamic duo could enter the competitive football agency industry.

“Call me tomorrow mate.”

The Hearn family has not been involved in the world of football since Barry Hearn stepped down as Leyton Orient F.C. chairman in 2014, ending a 19-year stint overseeing ‘The O’s’.

For now, Joshua must concentrate on the fight game, where Jared Anderson, Tony Yoka and Jake Paul are the latest names to be linked for what could prove to be the two-time heavyweight world champion’s final outing

Canelo’s Fiercest Foe Warns Crawford as One Fatal Mistake Could Shatter His Shot at Beating the Pound-for-Pound King

Terence Crawford has a huge task ahead of him as he moves up two weight divisions to take on Canelo Alvarez for the undisputed super-middleweight titles.

Terence Crawford struggled to win a razor-close decision against Israil Madrimov in his last fight, the first and only of his career at super-welterweight.

With the win, Bud became a four-weight world champion, though he may be pushing his luck as he jumps not one, but two more divisions for the pound-for-pound mega-fight.

With the weight disadvantage, Crawford needs every advantage he can get, including some advice from Canelo‘s toughest opponent.

Erislandy Lara issues critical warning to Terence Crawford ahead of Canelo fight

Ahead of their blockbuster brawl, Crawford has been given advice by none other than Erislandy Lara, one of Canelo’s toughest opponents.

Lara faced Canelo in 2014, and lost in an extremely tight split-decision. The fight remains one of the most contested of Canelo’s career, alongside the Gennadiy Golovkin fights

According to BoxRec, the average score from 89 members of the media was a 114-114 draw. Canelo, who Bruce Carrington called lazy recently, won on 34 cards, Lara on 30, and 25 couldn’t separate the pair.

Now, years later, Lara spoke to FightHype.com on the one thing Crawford must not allow Canelo to do in their fight.

The interviewer translated Lara’s words, “[Lara] remembers [Canelo] used his legs real good and as long as Crawford uses his legs and doesn’t let Canelo just hit him in the arms and beat him up in the arms, he has a very good chance.”

Lara also said of the fight, in the interviewer’s words, “He sees it as a very interesting 50/50 fight, he feels that Canelo’s very strong right now and wants to see how Crawford will handle the power, especially in the early rounds.”

Lara defeated Danny Garcia in his latest fight at the age of 42.

Canelo could face Diego Pacheco, Christian Mbilli, Hamzah Sheeraz, or Chris Eubank Jr. next if he beats Crawford.

Canelo’s former opponent showed brutal injury after facing the star

One man who could’ve done with Lara’s warning regarding arm punches is British boxer, Callum Smith, who faced Canelo in 2020.

Smith lost the fight via unanimous decision, but became one of a few British fighters to go the distance with the Mexican.

Following the fight, Smith showed off some serious swelling to his arm after Canelo had targeted it for the entire fight in a bid to neutralize Smith’s arsenal of weapons.

Former Canelo Alvarez Rival Breaks Silence with Crucial Advice for Terence Crawford Ahead of Potential Mega Fights

Canelo Alvarez is on a mission to prove the doubters wrong against Terence Crawford.

Already, former opponents of Alvarez have advised the American on how to tackle the bout, but even Amir Khan warned Crawford not to take the fight in 2024.

Boxers are worried the difference in weight could play a big part in a Canelo victory because the disparity is so vast.

The Mexican has attempted to compare ‘Bud’ to his past opposition, including Floyd Mayweather, which his ‘Money May’s’ uncle blasted.

Erislandy Lara explains one thing Terence Crawford needs to do against Canelo Alvarez

But now, a fighter who pushed him to the limit, Erislandy Lara, has spoken out to advise the Omaha boxer on how to approach a fight against the 67-fight veteran.

In an interview with FightHype, with the help of a translator, Lara assessed the fight itself.

He said: “He sees it as a very interesting 50/50 fight, he feels like Canelo is very strong right now, and he wants to figure out how Crawford will handle the power in the early rounds.”

The American Dream’ himself fought Saul to a hotly contested split decision loss, which boxing fans and pundits have been split on ever since.

After pushing the 35-year-old to the brink, he shared his key advice on how to prevent the dominant, undisputed champion from taking over the bout.

“He remembers fighting Canelo back 14 years ago, he remembers he uses his legs real good, and as long as Crawford uses his legs and he doesn’t let Canelo just hit him in the arms and beat him up on the arms, he has a very good chance,” Lara said.

Erislandy Lara’s stats in the Canelo fight reveal what Terence Crawford must use to win

It has been 11 years since the controversy of their split decision in the MGM Grand, but while the history books will show a win for the super middleweight king, the statistics show a slightly different fight.

RELATED : Maryland Court Issues Verdict in Gervonta Davis’ Financial Dispute

The now 42-year-old fighter had an incredibly effective jab against the young Guadalajaran, so much so that he neutralised any attempts for his foe to establish his lead hand.

Gervonta davis

55 jabs landed for the Cuban-turned-American compared to Canelo, who landed under 10 jabs, a 5% connection rate overall across the fight’s distance.

More astounding was the fact that by the second round, Lara had landed more jabs than Alvarez did across the entire 12 rounds.

But his dominance does not stop there, as he edged his opponent 28% to 23% in punch accuracy.

What this presents is a solid basis for Crawford to work off, using his legs and his long levers to keep the fight at range, which could prevent the five-division legend from walking him down.

The American player who once pushed Roger Federer to admit

By
Roger Federer

The American player who once pushed Roger Federer to admit he was “lucky” and “didn’t deserve” to win their Grand Slam clash.

Roger Federer has, across a sparkling career, amassed countless iconic, heroic victories.

After all, history will remember him as one of the greatest tennis players ever, who blazed a trail unlike anyone had done before and helped provide the foundation for stars like Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic to emerge too.

Without one another, it’s unlikely that all three of them would have soared to such unassailable heights, and for the legacy they have forged, they deserve limitless credit.

And yet, across three long, timeless careers, there were bound to be a few lesser-remembered, perhaps even forgettable wins.

Roger Federer, in particular, retired having played 1,526 matches on the ATP Tour, winning 1,251 of them; the most in both areas in the history of the men’s sport.

However, there seemed to be one outstanding match where he felt he was luckier than ever

The Grand Slam match Roger Federer admitted he was ‘lucky’ to win

Speaking during his on-court interview after winning his quarter-final at the 2020 Australian Open, Federer cut a downbeat figure, likely well aware of his level being below his usual standards.

After all, he had been pushed to the brink by Tennys Sandgren, an American whose best-ever performance had come at this event in 2018.

Having matched it by reaching this stage again, it seemed like the 36-year-old was on track to record the biggest win of his career. And, bringing up seven match points, Sandgren could not have been closer.

Alas, he squandered those chances, and Federer turned it around and admitted after the match: “Gotta get lucky sometimes, I’ll tell you that. Because, those seven match points, you’re not under control.

“It might look that way, but… I don’t know, I was just hoping that maybe he was not going to smash the winner, you know, on that one point, and he just keeps the ball in play. And if he does miss one or two, who knows what he’s thinking about, but even that, I don’t think really mattered. I think he played his match. I think I got incredibly lucky today.

“And then as the match went on, I started to feel better again, and, you know, all the pressure went away and I just tried to play. And again, got a little lucky to get the break and served really well. I think for most of the match at the end, especially.

“So I don’t deserve this one, but I’m standing here and I’m obviously very, very happy.”

When was Roger Federer’s final Grand Slam title?

Federer, as the ageless figure that he remained throughout his career, went on to appear in another two Grand Slam events following that Australian Open at the start of 2020.

However, his final major title had come years before that, given he was 38 years of age at the time of that ‘lucky’ win over Sandgren.

It did come in Melbourne though, enjoying his final taste of Grand Slam success in 2018 with a win over Marin Cilic in the final.

Federer’s retirement then came in 2022, unsurprisingly selecting Wimbledon as the venue for his Grand Slam swan song before waving farewell at the Laver Cup, the very tournament that he created.

A fitting goodbye to an iconic legend of the sport.
