The World Championship of Boxing will be held at Madison Square Garden in New York City on Saturday, May 20, and tickets are on sale now.
The event, which is scheduled to begin at 7 pm EST, will feature two top Junior Welterweight fighters facing off: undefeated world champion Terence “Bud” Crawford (30-0, 21 KOs), who will seek to defend his WBO / WBC / Ring Magazine titles against former Olympic gold medalist Felix Diaz, (19-1, 9 KOs) a contender from the Dominican Republic.
Crawford, who hails from Omaha, Nebraska, will be making his MSG debut in New York. He has won five of his last seven fights via knockout, and will be seeking his 31st straight career victory on May 20.
Southpaw Diaz, meanwhile, will hope to prove his status as the best 140-pound boxer in the world by attempting to give Crawford his first career loss.
