Spence vs Crawford HIGHLIGHTS: JULY 29, 2023 | PBC on Showtime PPV
Undefeated three-division champion Terence “Bud” Crawford emphatically stamped his place in the history books with a ninth-round TKO over the previously unbeaten Errol “The Truth” Spence Jr. to become the first undisputed welterweight champion of the four-belt era in the SHOWTIME PPV main event Saturday night from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions. “It means everything because of who I took the belts from,” said Crawford. “They talked bad about me. They said I wasn’t good enough and I couldn’t beat these welterweights. I just kept my head to the sky and kept praying to God that I would get the opportunity to show the world how great Terence Crawford is. Tonight, I believe I showed how great I am.” “He was just better tonight,” said Spence. “He was using the jab. My timing was a little bit off. He was just the better man tonight.” In addition to adding the WBC, WBA and IBF titles to his WBO belt, Crawford became the first male fighter to become an undisputed champion in two weight classes, having previously won all four belts at 140-pounds. In a fight where Spence had already been down three times, Crawford’s ninth round onslaught of hooks forced referee Harvey Dock to wave off the action 2:32 in the frame. After years of build-up, Spence came out aggressively in the opening round, jabbing and attacking Crawford’s body. Crawford, who is known for fighting from both the southpaw and orthodox stances, fought primarily as a southpaw and scored his first knockdown in round two with a powerful right cross that caught Spence off balance and sent him down for the first time in his career. “We practice that,” said Crawford. “Normally in camp we do a flick and jab. But we knew that wasn’t going to work with Errol Spence because he’s durable, he’s strong. So we had to practice a strong firm jab. The jab hit him and stopped him in his tracks.” “He was just throwing the hard jab,” said Spence. “He was timing with his jab. His timing was just on point. I wasn’t surprised by his speed or his accuracy. It was everything I thought.” Spence came out in round three determined to turn the tide after the knockdown, throwing big shots, including a left hook that landed cleanly early. However, Crawford was able to withstand the attack and showed his precision by landing a clean counter right that again staggered Spence. “Errol Spence is a tremendous talent and he’s got a great jab,” said Crawford. “We were worried about the jab coming in because that’s how he sets up all of his shots. Our main focus was the jab. You take away his best attribute. The rest is history.” In round seven, Crawford dropped Spence twice, once with a clean right uppercut early on and again late in the round with a right hook. Crawford led 79-70 on all three cards at the time of the stoppage and dominated the CompuBox stats with an 185 to 96 advantage in punches landed and an astounding 50% connect rate. Post-fight, Crawford showed his respect for Spence stepping up to the plate and making the super fight happen and spoke to the historic nature of the matchup, while Spence expressed his interest in a rematch later this year. “We gotta do it again,” said Spence. “I’m going to be a lot better. It’ll be a lot closer. It’ll probably be in December and the end of the year. I say we gotta do it again.” “Like I said before, I only dreamed of being a world champion,” said Crawford. “I’m an overachiever. Nobody believed in me when I was coming up, but I made everybody a believer. I want to thank Spence and his team because without him none of this would have been possible.” #TerenceCrawford #ErrolSpenceJr #SpenceCrawford Visit PremierBoxingChampions.com for more info.

GT20 Canada Season 3 | Match - 8 Highlights | Toronto Nationals vs Surrey Jaguars
#gt20canada #gt20season3 #cricketsnorth The morning after the rest day, everyone was geared up to take the field, but the rain had a different plan. There was some heavy shower before the start of the play, but it soon cleared out and only 2 overs were reduced per side. At the toss, the Nationals won the toss and decided to put the Jaguars up to bat. Alex Hales got a new partner in Jatinder Singh to open the innings. The aggressive batter from Oman got off to a flyer, playing some exquisite strokes before a sharp catch from JJ Smit got the better of him. Alex Hales looked was not finding the middle of the bat and was soon done by a brilliant delivery from Saad bin Zafar. Some tight and accurate bowling from the Nationals saw the Jaguars lose some quick wickets. A much-awaited contest in the middle was Shahid Afridi bowling to Iftikhar Ahmed, and it was worth watching. The legend Shahid Afridi was unhappy with some sloppy work in the field by the Nationals. With the skipper Iftikhar and the youngster Forde taking charge, the Jaguars scored with a quick run rate that powered them to a good first innings score. The chase for the Nationals was slow, as Spencer Johnson and Matthew Forde were accurate with their line and length. The pressure built up on the Nationals and they lost 2 wickets in an over to Matthew Forde. Gerhard Erasmus too threw away his wicket, scoring just 5 runs. The southpaw Colin Munro was then joined by the Canadian youngster, Armaan Kapoor, who helped his senior partner settle the chase. It was the magician from Nepal, Sandeep Lamichhane who got his side 2 quick wickets, removing both the set batters in a space of 3 balls. The next over Forde got rid of Faheem Ashraf. This brought the Namibian all-rounder JJ Smit to the middle to join Boom Boom Afridi. The Namibian took the role of the aggressor and played some powerful strokes when his countryman Bernard Scholtz got him caught at the boundary. The Canadian captain, Saad bin Zafar was met with an unplayable delivery from Spenser Johnson first up, which he didn't read and got bowled. Some last-over Boom Boom from Afridi, but that couldn't take the Nationals over the line. The Jaguars won this contest by 20 runs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Click on the link to subscribe to GT20 Canada: https://bit.ly/32UcUdi Click on the link below to follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gt20canada/ Click on the link below to follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/gt20canada Click on the link below to follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/GT20Canada To check out the stats, tap the link below: https://gt20.ca/
GT20 Canada Season 3 | Match - 5 Highlights | Brampton Wolves vs Toronto Nationals
#gt20canada #gt20season3 #cricketsnorth Both the teams coming into this contest high on confidence, bagging 2 points each winning their previous games. Tim Southee from the Wolves and Hamza Tariq from the Nationals came out for the coin toss. Wolves won the toss and asked the Nationals to bat first. No change in the Playing XI for both the teams. Hamza Tariq opened the innings with his partner Colin Munro. The skipper started off the innings with a positive intent, taking on the Wolves bowlers. It was a familiar affair for Munro as the opposition had a number of Kiwis on their side. Tariq's party was ended by Tim Southee thanks to a spectacular grab from Chris Green. The Canadian international Nicholas Kirton then joined his fellow Southpaw in the middle. Kirton was scoring at a swift pace, while Munro played a supporting role. Soon, Logan van Beek came into the attack and removed Colin Munro. This made way for Shahid Afridi to enter with 11 overs remaining. Afridi looked good in the middle, but his namesake from the Wolves - Shahid Ahmadzai found the piece of Afridi's timber. The very next ball Ahmadzai removed Gerhard Erasmus. A string of wickets brought the Wolves back into the game. With small contributions from Faheem Ashraf and Saad bin Zafar, the Nationals were able to post 142 on the board. From the Wolves it was Usman Khan and Aaron Johnson who started the chase. It was Zaman Khan who struck the first blow with his loopy slow yorker right at the bottom of Usman's middle stump. This marked the arrival of Mark Chapman to the crease who started from the word go. Once again Zaman Khan struck for the Nationals getting rid of Aaron Johnson and soon Faheem Ashraf removed Mark Chapman. The big guy Colin de Grandhomme found Shahid Afridi's hands off Farhan Malik's bowling. These fall of wickets brought the young Pakistani all-rounder Hussain Talat and the Canadian legend Rizwan Cheema. Together these two brought the chase back into the Wolves' favour. The specialist death bowling line-up of the Nationals brought chaos into the Wolves camp. But Rizwan Cheema held off one end and brought the target closer to their reach. Shahid Afridi then took matters into his own hands, bowled the 18th over, and got 2 consecutive wickets. The Wolves needed just 2 runs off 8 balls, when Chris Green gave away his wicket, bringing the last batter in the middle. The Nationals went to their most experienced player Shahid Afridi, asking for a miracle, which he almost pulled off. The Wolves scored the winning runs in the second last ball and got 2 crucial points. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Click on the link to subscribe to GT20 Canada: https://bit.ly/32UcUdi Click on the link below to follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gt20canada/ Click on the link below to follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/gt20canada Click on the link below to follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/GT20Canada To check out the stats, tap the link below: https://gt20.ca/
