Terence Crawford Net Worth: Why Is He Not Very Rich Despite a Flawless Record?

Undefeated WBO welterweight champion Terence Crawford is arguably the greatest active pound-for-pound star now. Although Canelo Alvarez and many other fighters of such status can challenge this claim, ‘Bud’ Crawford has still found ways to surpass them all.

Reflecting an unbeaten 37-0 professional record, Crawford is a multi-divisional world champion and appears to be the best welterweight boxer of the time. But despite this status, he isn’t the biggest star and is yet to see the absolute apex of financial success.

A multi-millionaire boxer already, Crawford has a lavish net worth in his favor. But on comparing it with his contemporaries, we may find ‘Bud’ to be at the back of the line. Well, a prime reason can be his promotional disputes could be that after beating Kell Brook in 2020, Crawford remained out of action for a long time. He demanded a big payday from his promoter Bob Arum but got denied in return.

Crawford and Top Rank administrators then went into a heated scuffle, which affected the WBO champion’s activeness in the sport. But Crawford seems back in the flow and, on returning, he can bag a hefty payday to boost his net worth. Here’s a broader look at his financial scenario.

Meanwhile, his career earnings and endorsements have been the prime reason behind turning Crawford’s childhood dream of becoming a millionaire into reality.

Earnings and Endorsements

Crawford has been into several multi-million dollar fights. His latest appearance against Kell Brook had reportedly fetched him $4 million, whereas Brook received half of the aforementioned amount In 2017, Crawford bagged the WBA and IBF super-lightweight titles against Julius Indongo, earning $1.5 million from the single fight. He never had to turn back from there.

He earned double that amount in 2018 by beating Jeff Horn for the WBO welterweight title and took home a lavish $3 million. ‘Bud’ then vanquished Jose Benavidez Jr. for a whopping $3.625 million. As for endorsements, Everlast is one of the longest-running partners with Crawford and ‘Bud’ has several more social media linkings.

Who is next for Terence Crawford?

The undefeated WBO welterweight champion will put his belt at stake against Shawn Porter on November 20 at the Mandalay Bay Resort in Las Vegas, USA. After a year-long hiatus, Crawford’s return will see him go against an A-listed former champion, which will pressure him to put forth his best version on the night.

Although Crawford seems the favorite over Porter, the reality could play out differently. ‘Showtime’ Porter has been with the best boxers of the time and can use that as a blueprint to shock the world by defeating Terence ‘Bud’ Crawford.
