In Short
  • Terence Crawford walked out of Adin Ross' livestream after a claim that Jake Paul could defeat 90% of professional boxers.
  • Crawford's retirement followed a fallout with the WBC over sanctioning fees, ending his title defense pursuits.
  • Crawford and Shakur Stevenson emphasized the skill gaps between boxing and MMA fighters during their discussions.

Terence Crawford has long maintained a no-nonsense approach to his life and boxing career, shaping a mindset rooted in discipline. He has consistently emphasized the dangers of the sport and the responsibility fighters carry in the squared circle. This perspective was clear when streamer Adin Ross claimed Jake Paul could defeat 90% of professional boxers, prompting Crawford’s visible disagreement.

Crawford, currently retired at 38, stepped away from boxing following a major fallout with the WBC over sanctioning fee disputes. The disagreement effectively ended his pursuit of additional title defenses. However, since retirement, he has remained a consistent presence on Ross’s livestreams. The Nebraska native’s appearances often involve commentary on boxing and the current landscape of the sport.

‘Bud’ recently appeared on Ross’s stream with four‑division champion Shakur Stevenson. During the discussion, Ross claimed that Jake Paul could beat nearly 90% of professional boxers, a claim Stevenson openly disagreed with. Crawford walked out as Ross and rapper DDG tried to argue Paul’s abilities using various points. The moment highlighted Crawford’s firm stance against exaggerated claims about boxing skill.

Paul recently made headlines after being brutally knocked out by Anthony Joshua in a high‑profile bout that drew global attention. During the fight, Ross had reportedly placed a $25,000 wager on Joshua’s defeat. When Crawford learned about the bet, he showed heavy disappointment and laughed at the situation. He used the moment to highlight the realities of the bout and underscore Paul’s boxing limitations.

Crawford was reportedly approached for a fight against Paul after his bout with Gervonta Davis was canceled due to Davis’s ongoing legal troubles. However, the matchup never materialized, as neither Crawford nor his team issued any public response. The lack of confirmation effectively ended negotiations for the fight. This led Paul to ultimately settle for the high‑profile bout against Anthony Joshua instead.

The stark differences between Crawford and Paul’s careers help explain ‘Bud’s reaction. Crawford retired undefeated after a decorated professional career with multiple division titles. Paul’s rise has largely come through crossover bouts and social media-driven matchups. These contrasting paths highlight why Terence Crawford was unwilling to entertain exaggerated claims about Paul’s standing in professional boxing.

Terence Crawford and Shakur Stevenson believe UFC fighters stand no chance against boxers

Crawford has consistently stated he would never compete in the UFC, citing the large pay difference compared to boxing. Recently, he and Shakur Stevenson emphasized that UFC fighters would have little chance in a boxing ring. They pointed to the technical and strategic differences separating the sports. The Nebraska legend highlighted these skill gaps to show why boxing remains distinct from MMA.

The UFC will never be better than boxing, UFC is good for what they do, and we’re good for what we do. You know what I mean? You’ve got to think, if I can’t whoop you with my hands, I can kick you, I can take you down. It’s a whole different mental capacity than just kicking, punching.

Shakur Stevenson called out Ilia Topuria, saying he could knock him out in a boxing match. He also noted that UFC legend Jon Jones would have no chance in the squared circle. Stevenson highlighted the differences in striking and ring strategy between boxing and MMA. Crawford concluded by stressing that these skill gaps make UFC fighters unlikely to succeed in professional boxing.
