Las Vegas lived up to its Fight Town USA reputation as attendance was announced at 19,990 — a sellout at T-Mobile Arena where Terence Crawford knocked down Errol Spence Jr. in a monster boxing match.
It was an electric night on the Las Vegas sports landscape as sport and entertainment produced a spectacle boxing match between two elite boxers in the sport’s glamour division, the welterweight category that has produced boxing’s biggest names like Leonard, Duran, Hearns and Mayweather.
