Terence Crawford returned to the ring for the first time in a year Saturday when he squared off against WBA junior middleweight titlist Israil Madrimov in Los Angeles. The bout, which was scheduled for twelve rounds, was the main event of a DAZN pay per view card broadcast live from LA’s BMO Stadium. Crawford was jumping up from welterweight where he was last seen dominating Errol Spence, a fighter who was widely regarded as his equal, in a legitimate superfight in 2023.
The first round was basically a feeling out process – not uncommon in Crawford fights. The second was also a tight affair, though the fighters were beginning to open up in the later portion of the round. Crawford likely took the third with a few clean shots. Madrimov, on the other hand, was patient to the point of nearly letting the round slip by. The fourth saw Madrimov come alive and land well against the fast and hard hitting Crawford.
Crawford went down from a slip in the fifth, then got tagged several times by Madrimov. The sixth was extremely close. This was one of those fights where no one had a spectacular moment – and least not so far. Madrimov continued to fight intelligently in the seventh, but it was Crawford who was landing more effectively. The fighters finally began opening fire on each other in the eighth. It was a close, frustrating fight to score.
Madrimov’s sharp shooting probably won him the ninth. The fight remained an awkward affair in the tenth. Both fighters had their moments, and it was difficult to see who was truly getting the better of who. Madrimov performed marvelously in the eleventh, so marvelously that he lost focus for a moment and got tagged hard by Crawford, who then went on to win the round. The twelfth and final round saw Crawford landing well. Madrimov landed well himself, but Crawford may have edged it.
After the final bell, the judges ruled in favor of Crawford via a close unanimous decision.

The Crawford haters are having a field day claiming he has lost it, that his power is gone, he’s slower, etc, but he just jumped up 10 pounds and fought a champ, and beat him. If you’re a lover of boxing and have no axe to grind, you saw a great boxer continue to shine in tough, championship rounds, like Bud Crawford always has, but if you’re a hater you saw what you wanted to see. The last three rounds of this fight were an amazing display of Crawford’s Hall of Fame skill, and I’m glad I was able to witness it! Let’s not forget the skill Madrimov displayed in this fight, the guy fought out of his head and tested Crawford often; against most other good welterweights moving up to MW he would have beat them easily, but Bud is not most welterweights. Watch the fight again and see what kind of skill was on display from both men, it was a really good fight, but Bud is a special fighter, akin to Sugar Ray Robinson in my opinion; I know, that’s a bold comparison, but if you’ve seen his career unfold you know what I’m saying, Crawford is special. Anyway, that’s just my opinion, but I’ve been watching boxing for 50 years now, and I’m not a casual fan, I’m what you might call a fight junkie. If you doubt what I’ve said about Bud Crawford go back and watch his last 5-10 title defenses (there are many more), and you’ll see what I mean about the Robinson comparison. I know, I know, NOBODY can match Sugar Ray’s astonishing career, but Crawford lives and breathes boxing, and he’s a very smart fighter who dissects fights beforehand and as they’re going on, adjusts on the fly and doesn’t make the same mistake twice. He’s special.
