How much did Terence Crawford make from his fight against Errol Spence Jr.?

Errol Spence Jr. and Terence Crawford fought in front of a sold-out venue at the T-Mobile Arena, Vegas. Tickets to their bout were selling like hotcakes, and many big celebrities wanted to get their hands on the ringside seat. Boxing fans had huge expectations from both fighters. It was one of the most important boxing matches of 2023.

To pull off this lopsided victory, Crawford was paid fairly handsomely. He walked away with a guaranteed fight purse of $10 million.

What’s next for Terence Crawford

After becoming the undisputed champion for the second time, Terence Crawford will look forward to doing it again. Bud will most likely move to the light middleweight division and fight for titles there. The 154 lbs division already has Jermell Charlo as the undisputed champion. ‘Bud’ already has beef with Charlo.

However, Charlo has his hands full at the moment with fighting Mexican boxer Canelo Alvarez. The fight takes place on 30th September, and Charlo will have to climb two weight classes to fight for Canelo’s titles. So boxing fans will have to wait a long time for a fight between Crawford and Charlo to materialize.

Before fighting Charlo, Crawford will have to take care of Errol Spence Jr. yet again. According to their contracts, both fighters could invoke a rematch within 30 days of their fight. With Spence Jr. not happy with his performance, he has called out Bud for another bout to claim the undisputed titles. While an exact timeline for the rematch remains unknown, it is rumored that the bout might take place at 154 lbs. So, before going for the undisputed champion status yet again, Bud will have to deal with ‘The Truth’ once more.
