The highly anticipated unified super middleweight championship boxing match between Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford has a streaming home.
It was announced Tuesday that Canelo (63-2-2) vs. Crawford (41-0) will take place Sept. 13 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas and will stream on Netflix globally at no additional cost, same as it was for the Jake Paul-Mike Tyson bout last year.
Dana White shared his excitement in an Instagram post, as the UFC boss will promote the fight under TKO Boxing alongside Saudi Arabia's Turki Alalshikh.
"Turki wants to make the biggest fights that the fans want to see in boxing, and this is right up my alley," White said. "Are you kidding me that the first boxing fight I'm going to get to promote is Canelo vs. Crawford? It's literally a once in a lifetime fight. Live on Saturday, September 13, streaming globally on Netflix, two of the GREATEST boxers in the sport will meet in a historic fight from Las Vegas."
Canelo and Crawford will take part in a three-city international press tour. Their first stop will be at Baker Alshidy Theatre in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on June 20, before heading to Fanatics Fest in New York on June 22, and finally T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on June 27.
Canelo vs. Crawford takes place on the same day as Noche UFC, which was previously a pay-per-view event slated for Guadalajara, Mexico, but is now a UFC Fight Night taking place at Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, Texas.
