Three-division world champion Terence Crawford and undefeated WBA titleholder Israil Madrimov will take the stage later today for their Riyadh Season final press conference, streaming LIVE in the embedded video above at 4 p.m. ET. Their DAZN pay-per-view (PPV) title fight goes down this Sat. night (Aug. 3, 2024) at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles, California.

“Realistically the next step was to do a rematch with (Errol) Spence,” Crawford told Matchroom Boxing. “For whatever reason it didn’t happen, so I had to move on with my career. The ultimate goal was to try to get the Canelo (Alvarez) fight. That didn’t happen, so we went to the next best thing.”

This weekend’s card is expected to get underway at 4:30 p.m. ET with main event ring walks taking place at 11:30 p.m. ET (subject to change). Crawford is a massive -700 betting favorite over Madrimov, who clocks in at +475. “The Dream” is 11 years younger than the undefeated southpaw at 29 and sports seven knockouts in 10 wins.
