Terence Crawford VS Jose Benavidez Jr. Full Fight Highlights
OMAHA, Neb. As welterweight world titleholder Terence Crawford continued to take the trash talk, disdain and knockout threats from Jose Benavidez Jr. , he had one constant response: Wait for the fight, and he would shut him up. That s just what Crawford did and in style as he outclassed Benavidez before scoring a violent, 12thround knockout to retain his 147pound title for the first time before a raucous crowd of 13, 323 on Saturday at the CHI Health Center in Crawford s hometown. The crowd was the largest Crawford has drawn to date, and he gave the hometown fans a show. After dominating virtually the entire fight against an opponent who simply would not or could not throw many punches, Crawford knocked Benavidez down with a thunderous right uppercut with about 45 seconds left in the fight. He battered him until referee Celestino Ruiz stepped in to wave off the fight at 2 minutes, 42 seconds as the crowd went wild. I did what I said I was going to do. T
