Told you! This was the reaction from top SA boxing trainer and manager Colin Nomakanjani Nathan, who predicted that Terence Bud Crawford would be crowned the new, undisputed super-middleweight boxing champion of the world after he dethroned Sal Canelo lvarez in their historic fight in front of 70,000 fans at Allegiant Stadium in Los Angeles in the US on Sunday morning.
Crawford, 37, who jumped three weight classes to fight lvarez, is the first male boxer in history to capture the undisputed championship in two and three divisions, and the first to achieve that status as both a light welterweight and welterweight.
He ended lvarezs reign as the WBA Super, WBC, IBF, WBO, and The Ring super middleweight champion via a unanimous points decision after 12 closely contested rounds.
