Overview

• Crawford entered to Cancion Del Mariachi from Desperado before his unanimous-decision win over Canelo Alvarez at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
• Topuria, who has long used the track for UFC walkouts, posted that Crawford "walks out to MY song" and renewed a boxing challenge.
• Crawford explained the selection as part of a Desperado-inspired outfit with a live performance and dismissed the overlap when told of Topuria’s association.
• Speaking in Spain, Topuria said he wants to box and believes he can convince UFC CEO Dana White to support the plan.
• MMA coverage cast a potential Crawford–Topuria crossover as unlikely for now given Crawford’s boxing opportunities and Topuria’s UFC title obligations.
