Terence Crawford effusively commended WBC interim super middleweight champion David Benavidez for his stellar performance, asserting that Benavidez is now “ready for Canelo.” Following Benavidez’s sixth-round retirement victory over Demetrius Andrade, Crawford praised ‘The Mexican Monster’ and assigned his performance an “A++” rating.
Crawford specifically lauded Benavidez’s adept use of pressure and diverse punching techniques against Andrade, who appeared to be competing in a weight class significantly above his natural 154-pound division. However, during the event, Crawford indulged in a heated debate with an alleged fighter friend of Errol Spence Jr.
Terence Crawford was found having a heated debate with a fighter who is alleged to be Thomas Hill, a friend of Errol Spence Jr., while in the audience for the David Benavidez vs. Demetrius Andrade fight. However, the altercation was stopped by the intervention of Andre Berto. The fans quickly took to Twitter to react to the fight that almost happened. One of the fans mentioned that the fighter in the video is Thomas Hill, a friend of Errol Spence Jr. Another fan stated that his eyes revealed ‘Bud’ instead of Terence Crawford at the time of the heated conversation.
Tensions escalated during a press conference, reaching a boiling point as Terence Crawford became visibly distracted by a supporter engaging in trash talk from the front row. The exchange unfolded just as the moderator was posing a question to Errol Spence Jr. about what fans could anticipate.
While the exact nature of the provocations from the fan remains unclear, Crawford’s response was unequivocal, injecting an additional layer of intensity into an already tense atmosphere. Crawford snarled at the supporter, saying, “You ain’t gonna bring nothin, you ain’t gonna bring nothin. You a b**ch. You a b**ch, n*** … The fuck you talking to? Because you keep talking like a bitch, n***.”
