PPV.COM, which does not require a subscription, returns to the ring when it live streams to boxing fans, in the U.S. and Canada, the summer's most exciting and historic boxing card on U.S. soil, in a battle between undefeated champions. Terence 'Bud' Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs), a three-division world champion from Omaha, Nebraska, will move up in weight to challenge WBA super welterweight world champion Israil 'The Dream' Madrimov (10-0-1, 7 KOs), a native of Khiva, Uzbekistan, who fights out of Indio, California. In addition to Madrimov's title, the WBO interim junior middleweight world title will also be on the line.
Crawford extended his eight-year victory by knockout streak to 11 by stopping then-undefeated unified welterweight champion Errol Spence last year to become boxing's first undisputed world champion in two different weight divisions in the four-belt era. He will be looking to solidify his claim as the No. 1 pound for pound fighter. Madrimov will be making the first defense of the world title he won on March 8, when he knocked out undefeated Magomed Kurbanov in the fifth round. The stacked pay-per-view event, which marks the first time Riyadh Season will host a card outside the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, will take place Saturday, August 3, beginning at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT, emanating from BMO Stadium in Los Angeles. Priced at $79.99, the Crawford vs. Madrimov world championship event can be ordered by clicking here: PPV.COM - Crawford vs. Madrimov.
"Israil Madrimov is a typically tough, well-schooled Eastern European boxer. But Terence Crawford is in another league. The skill and dynamism he showed in upending Errol Spence offered a strong argument for pound-for-pound number one status, and Crawford is an intensely proud professional who never lets his guard down. There’s no reason to suspect he will fail to master Madrimov, either by TKO or by lopsided decision,” said Hall of Fame broadcaster Jim Lampley, who returns to the ring wars to co-host the exclusive viewer chat, in real time, during the PPV.COM Crawford vs. Madrimov world championship event live stream.
Joining Lampley on the viewer chat will be award-winning boxing journalist Lance Pugmire and popular podcast host Dan Canobbio. Jim, Lance, and Dan will also be providing exclusive fight week commentary and reports for PPV.COM's website and social platforms.
