Описание: Dana White, CEO of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), is promoting his first boxing event featuring Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford alongside Turki Alalshikh. This "once in a lifetime" event is scheduled for September 13, 2025, at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas and will be broadcast on Netflix.

Key points from Dana White regarding the Canelo-Crawford fight

Collaboration with Turki Alalshikh: White, along with Saudi Arabian boxing chief Turki Alalshikh, formed TKO boxing in March 2025. White has expressed excitement about working with Alalshikh to make the biggest fights happen.

Breaking ticket sales records at Allegiant Stadium: The Canelo vs. Crawford fight is expected to sell out the 65,000-capacity Allegiant Stadium, potentially breaking the Las Vegas boxing attendance record. However, Dana White has publicly stated that he dislikes stadium shows.

Zuffa Boxing: The fight will be the inaugural event under the Zuffa Boxing banner, a new boxing promotion company co-founded by White and Alalshikh. White has teased that this new promotion will be under the Zuffa Boxing banner.

Canelo Alvarez vs. Terence Crawford: The fight is for the undisputed super middleweight championship. Canelo Alvarez enters the fight as the undisputed champion with a 63-2-2 record and is considered the favorite. Terence Crawford, undefeated with a 41-0 record, is moving up two weight classes to challenge Canelo. This fight is being billed as a "once in a lifetime" event.

Broadcast Team and Promotion: Netflix will broadcast the main card, and a UFC-backed broadcast team will be involved. Zuffa Boxing will also promote two undercard events at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas prior to the main event. White has expressed gratitude and excitement about promoting this historic event.
