LAS VEGAS — Terence Crawford put on the best performance of his career in his biggest fight, dominating Errol Spence Jr. from start to finish Saturday at T-Mobile Arena, claiming the undisputed welterweight championship.
Referee Harvey Dock mercifully pulled Crawford from Spence at 2:32 of the ninth round as Spence was reeling around the ring from Crawford’s fast, accurate blows. Crawford was teeing off when Dock stopped it. Crawford landed 185 of 369 total punches, dominating Spence in a way not seen in a major fight in years. Spence’s face was showing the wear of the beating from the third round on and it could have been stopped as early as the seventh.
