  Speaker 1: You know, the Terrence Crawford Canelo Alvarez fight brought me
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: back to Fanatics Best twenty twenty five because we had
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: the opportunity to be in basically near the front row
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: of that face off between Canelo and Crawford, and of
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: course Max Kellerman and Dana White were up there, and
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: Kellerman was asking both gentlemen these questions. And I remember
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: this answer very vividly to Max Kellerman's prodding a little
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: bit about why Crawford was so confident in moving up
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: two weight classes to take on Canelo, who obviously was
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: winning at every turn. Well, when you hear how Crawford
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: answered that, you'll understand this guy has had confidence for
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: a while now that he can do what he did
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: last night, which was when unanimously a unanimous victory over
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Canelo Alvarez at Allegiance. But here's what I remember vividly
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: from June twenty twenty five, after that expressed.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Skipping a division, you just got to junior middle wague
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: you were getting the best fighter of your career at
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: junior middleweight by Magermont gave you a tougher fight than
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: mad Ill.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Stop that, and now you're cool, cool someone gave you
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: a tougher fight.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: The match offends to fight, Well.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: You've been beating the hell out of most guys have
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: ever fought. He gave you a good fight. Now you're
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: skipping the middleweight.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: No rehydration lost, nothing like that to move up to
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: fight a guy who was dominated that weight class for
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: a decade, weight class for a decade. Why are you
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: doing this way? Why don't you say you've got a
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: lot of grades who that that's impossible. As the game,
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: I said, I had a prime skills.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: I got all the tools to.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Bene I got all the tools to beat Canal. That's
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: what he said in June and last night. You know,
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: I'm not a boxing guy. I'm not really a UFC guy,
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: but even I could tell he was getting his jabs
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: in at the best times throughout that fight, all twelve rounds,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: and he just there were a round after round that
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: looked like he was the dominant force in that ring.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: And people are saying, should Canell retire? I don't know
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: if that is the next step, But for Crawford, I
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: mean clearly this meant something much more than just winning
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: a boxing match, because he went on X and said
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: this is for the nobody. So obviously he's felt doubted
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: a long time, and now last night proved that he
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: is to become the super middleweight champion of the world
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: before an announced crowd of seventy thousand, four hundred and
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: eighty two people.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: And I know my friend JOHNA, who's.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: In Nebraska, was very proud, as were a lot of
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: people from Nebraska.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: Is obviously that's where Crawford got his start.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: I thought Canelo was gonna come out with an advantage,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: but it just looked like he was a lot slower
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: in the ring.
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: And once Tea Bud as they.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Call him, started to get those jack you know, those
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: hits in on his ribs, I said, okay, he's got.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: Control here, and sure enough, after.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: A few bits of slumber, I wake back up and
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: he's a unanimous winner of the super middle weight champion.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: And so congratulations Terrence Crawford. But we had seen it,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: thanks if an acciss, we had seen it at the
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: be We were way to Bay of Breath for that
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: way in because we didn't get to see the face
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: off against Tyson and Jake Paul.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: So he said, let's make it up with this one,
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: and there you hear it.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: He knew back in June he had the tools to
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: beat Canelo Alvarez, and he beat him, and he beat him.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: So I just love that confidence. And two judges of
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: warded Crawford the match one hundred fifteen and one thirteen
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: and the third one hundred sixteen to twelve. The Associated
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Press a Cord the fight one hundred and eighteen to
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: one hundred and ten, and uh, look, it was a
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: risk to move up to weight classes, I'm sure, but
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: he knew what he was doing.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: He knew what he was doing. And this's a good
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: moment for the United States. Okay, it is. You have
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: the United States boxer who wins this.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: And there was There's been a lot of fights in Vegas, obviously,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: but this one had a build up. It was Netflix,
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: it was UFC collab as well, so there was just
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: a lot going into it. And I think for Crawford,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: he felt like, Hey, it's in my states, it's in
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: my country. I cannot let the American crowd down.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: And he did not. He did not.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: And so congrats again to Terence Crawford. And when you
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: took the stage in June, I had a feeling it
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: wasn't cockiness that you were feeling. It was confidence that
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: you could beat Canilo Alvarez, and you did, and you did,
• 5:33
