Overview

• One week after outpointing Saúl “Canelo” Álvarez to unify all four super‑middleweight titles, Terence Crawford remains undisputed at 168 and has been moved to No. 1 pound‑for‑pound by Ring Magazine.
• The WBA confirmed Crawford relinquished his 154‑lb title and named Germany’s Abass Baraou the full super‑welterweight champion after previously holding the interim belt.
• Eddie Hearn said he does not expect Álvarez to seek an immediate rematch and noted there was no rematch clause reported, while Crawford’s trainer Brian McIntyre encouraged Canelo to continue fighting.
• Crawford said Álvarez and his team underestimated his power, Marco Barrera praised Crawford’s strategy, and Óscar De la Hoya derided Canelo’s performance; Crawford also returned the physical belts to Álvarez per standard procedure.
• Future matchmaking remains unsettled as talk of David Benavidez draws resistance from Crawford’s side and trainer Robert García, and promoter Ben Shalom floated Chris Eubank Jr. as a 2026 option contingent on his November bout with Conor Benn.
