Slideshow tribute to Terence Crawford.

Terence Allan Crawford (born September 28, 1987) is an American professional boxer. He has held multiple world championships in three weight classes, including the World Boxing Organization (WBO) welterweight title since 2018. Previously he held the WBO and Ring magazine lightweight titles from 2014 to 2015; and the unified World Boxing Association (WBA) (Super version), World Boxing Council (WBC), International Boxing Federation (IBF), WBO, and Ring light welterweight titles between 2015 and 2017.

In August 2017, Crawford had a short reign as the undisputed light welterweight champion, prior to moving up to welterweight. He was the first undisputed champion at light welterweight since Kostya Tszyu in 2004. Crawford also became the first male boxer to simultaneously hold all four major world titles in boxing (WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO) since Jermain Taylor in 2005, and as of December 2022 is one of only nine male boxers in history to do so.[2]

As of May 2022, Crawford is ranked as the world's best active boxer, pound for pound, by ESPN,[3] second by The Ring magazine[4] and Boxing Writers Association of America,[5] third by TBRB,[6] and fourth by BoxRec.[7] He is also ranked as the world's best active welterweight by ESPN[8] and BoxRec,[9] and second by The Ring[10] and the TBRB.[11] Crawford was named Fighter of the Year by the Boxing Writers Association of America in 2014, and by ESPN in 2014 and 2017.

Stylistically, Crawford is known for his exceptionally fast hand speed, ring IQ, punching power, timing, counter-punching abilities, finishing ability, and defensive skills, as well as his ability to comfortably switch hit from orthodox to southpaw.
