Boxing<\/a> fans have always loved a supercard. Back in the golden era of the 90s, promoters like Don King and Bob Arum would stack their pay-per-views with multiple championship bouts to give fans their money’s worth. Those stacked cards created memorable nights when legends were born and boxing history was written.<\/p>

Now, as fans approach one of the biggest superfights in recent memory, the tradition of the supercard might be making a comeback thanks to one of its headliners. Terence Crawford, widely regarded as one of the pound-for-pound best fighters on the planet, isn’t content with just being part of a massive main event. He wants the entire card to deliver.<\/p>

Crawford’s upcoming September showdown with Canelo Alvarez is already being hailed as the biggest boxing event of 2025. The matchup pits two generational talents against each other in a clash that boxing fans have dreamed about for years. Crawford, a four-division world champion with an unblemished record, will climb up two weight classes to challenge Alvarez, the face of boxing and current king of the super middleweights. It’s a classic case of skill versus power, finesse versus strength, and a chance for both men to add a career-defining victory to their already impressive resumes.<\/p>

Crawford Pushing For Gervonta Davis vs. Shakur Stevenson Co-Main Event<\/h2>

In a surprising development, Crawford has publicly advocated for another super fight to serve as the co-main event on his Canelo card. The WBA junior welterweight champion has expressed his desire to see Gervonta Davis face off against Shakur Stevenson in what would be an absolutely stacked card.<\/p>

“I don’t know [about the undercard]. It’s going to be crazy. It should be crazy. That would be dope. If Tank was not so cocky to be on a Terence Crawford undercard [against Stevenson], that would be dope. But I don’t see Tank taking a backseat to any fighter because he will think it’s the Tank show. So I don’t know. But it should be a good undercard.”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>
