WHAT’S NEXT FOR TERENCE CRAWFORD? FOUR BIG POSSIBILITIES!
Terence Crawford, the undisputed welterweight champion, is at a crucial point in his career after his dominant win over Errol Spence Jr. in July 2023. With his status as one of the top pound-for-pound fighters solidified, fans are eager to see what’s next for the 36-year-old star.
A likely option is a rematch with Errol Spence Jr. Spence has activated the rematch clause, and the second fight could happen at 154 pounds, a weight class where Spence might feel more comfortable. This bout could provide a fresh challenge and a new narrative for both fighters.
Another possibility is a fight with Jermell Charlo. Crawford has shown interest in moving up to 154 pounds, where Charlo is currently the undisputed champion. This clash would be highly anticipated, especially if Charlo defends his titles successfully against Canelo Álvarez.
Speaking of Canelo Álvarez, a fight against the Mexican superstar would be a massive event, though it would require Crawford to jump up multiple weight classes. The potential for a huge payday and legacy-defining win makes this an intriguing option, despite the risks involved.
Lastly, there’s the possibility of retirement. At 36, Crawford has achieved nearly everything in boxing. While it’s less likely given his current momentum, stepping away from the sport on top is something Crawford might consider if he feels there’s nothing left to prove.
Crawford’s next move will depend on what he sees as the most compelling challenge for his legacy and what can be negotiated in the coming months.
