Terrence Crawford has been inactive for almost a year but has now teased a huge move ahead of confirmation of his next return to the boxing ring.
Crawford’s last fight was last July and might just have been his best career performance. He took on the unified welterweight champion Errol Spence in an undisputed fight that saw him leave will all of the major belts in the division – the second time he has achieved this feat having also done so down at super-lightweight in previous years.
The fight was a one-sided showcase of his skills and power that ended with Spence Jr being stopped in the mid-rounds. Although a rematch was contracted, it won’t take place, but Crawford remains out of the ring for now.
In a new post on X he has teased a fight out in Saudi Arabia by sharing a picture of himself with all his belts that has been shared by Turki Alalshikh next to a simple emoji.

Should Crawford be the next star to head out to the Middle East to fight, there’s a good chance it would be against a high-level opponent because that has been the general mode of operation for Turki Alalshikh so far.
He has already made unlikely battles like Tyson Fury versus Oleksandr Usyk, Anthony Joshua versus Francis Ngannou and Queensbury versus Matchroom amongst many more all possible.
