Oh man, where do I even start? So, there’s this showdown, and it’s gonna be huge. I’m talking Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford huge—you know, the kinda fight that makes you think, “Wow, I really need to see this.” It’s all going down in Vegas on September 13. Picture Allegiant Stadium packed to the brim. Chaos, right?
Anyway, this fight’s got some wild backstory. Like, I heard Dana White’s hopping on board to help promote. Yeah, Dana White from the UFC. I mean, who’d have thought? One moment I’m hearing rumors about him ditching this gig, next thing you know he’s all in. Turns out, he’s joined forces with Turki Alalshikh—big name in Saudi sports—and this Sela company. Oh, and let’s not skip the part where they announced this without leaving much room for questions. Classic.
Now here’s a twist—Netflix is gonna stream the fight. That’s not your usual boxing move. Usually, it’s all pay-per-view this, pay-per-view that. But nope, Netflix it is. Maybe it’s ’cause they did the Jake Paul and Mike Tyson thing last year—which, let’s face it, was a spectacle all its own.
So how did we get here? Well, somewhere along the line, White decided to mix it up with TKO Boxing, a mashup with TKO Group, UFC, WWE, and our guy Turki again. Sounds like a tangled web, but maybe that’s just me.
Oh, and by the way, there’s a media tour. Three cities. Riyadh, New York, Vegas. All jam-packed within about a week in June. Feels like I’m writing a travel itinerary now.
Turki’s hyped, White’s gearing up, fans are buzzing. September can’t come fast enough. It feels like one of those “you just had to be there” moments waiting to happen. Fingers crossed for some wild, unforgettable action.
