There are fights, and then there are super-fights. Certain match-ups captivate the attention of the public and transcend the sport. One such super-fight is around the corner four weeks from now. Terence Crawford will get in the squared circle against Errol Spence Jr. Crawford is the WBO Welterweight champion while Spence Jr is the unified world champion. Apart from their world titles, their undefeated record will be on the line. Furthermore, the Welterweight division belts are on the line, which means the winner will be granted the title of undisputed Welterweight champion.  A lot to gain but a lot to lose as well.

Apart from the stakes at hand, their styles have the boxing world intrigued. Spence Jr. uses his jab effectively to fight on the outside and has an overall defensive approach to combat. Meanwhile, Crawford although technical, possesses great knockout power and uses it to his advantage by fighting aggressively. These two contrasting styles of fighting are a nail-biter matchup for the fans. There is a sense of uncertainty around the matchup as both fighters will be facing their toughest challenge. Who will come out as the victor and how?
