There’s nothing like a Las Vegas fight night—and September 13th 2025 at Allegiant Stadium proved it. 🥊✨ In this episode of Black in Sports, we break down the historic Canelo Álvarez vs. Terence “Bud” Crawford mega-fight that had the entire world watching. From the electric energy in the stadium to the record-breaking attendance and box office numbers, this wasn’t just another bout—it was a cultural moment.
Boxing has always been called “the sweet science,” and this fight lived up to every bit of that legacy. Whether you streamed it live on Netflix at home or felt the roar of the crowd inside Allegiant, the matchup delivered the drama, strategy, and star power that makes Vegas the fight capital of the world. Celebrities packed the building, fans traveled from across the globe, and history was written under the bright lights of Sin City.
Crawford’s victory wasn’t just about power — it was about precision, patience, and pure boxing IQ. He silenced critics, shocked those who doubted, and cemented his name alongside the all-time greats. For Canelo, the fight raised big questions about what comes next for one of boxing’s most dominant champions of the last decade. Was this a passing of the torch moment? Or is there still more left in the tank for the face of Mexican boxing?
In this episode of Black in Sports, we dive deep into the fight itself — the tactical brilliance, the turning points, and the atmosphere that only Las Vegas can deliver. We talk about the energy inside Allegiant, the impact of Netflix bringing this fight into living rooms across the globe, and what Crawford’s win means for the future of the sport. This was more than just a fight; it was a cultural moment, a reminder of why boxing will always be called the sweet science.
Whether you were one of the thousands in the stadium or watching every jab and counterpunch at home, this was a night to remember. And we’re here to break it all down, as only we can.
