Turki Alalshikh, chairman of the General Entertainment Authority and president of the Saudi Boxing Federation. Announced that there will be a bonus for a knockout. Canelo Alvarez (62-2-2, 39 KOs) vs Terance Crawford (41-0, 31 KOs) face off for the undisputed super middleweight championship on the line against Terence Crawford on Sept. 13 in Las Vegas
The announcement came during the kickoff presser for Canelo-Crawford in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Alalshikh has been steadfast in putting an end to “Tom & Jerry fights,” where one fighter is “running around the ring and another fighter is chasing him.” To counter this, he has installed a KO bonus that will be implemented in future fights he promotes, starting with Canelo-Crawford.
