Saul Canelo Alvarez (63-2-2, 39 KOs) will defend his undisputed super-middleweight championship to Terence Crawford (41-0, 31 KOs) on Saturday, September 13, in Las Vegas, live on Netflix.
A three-city press tour will kick off the Riyadh Season event on Friday, June 20 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia; then in New York on Sunday, June 22 at Fanatics Fest; ending on Friday, June 27 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
The super-fight streaming live on Netflix has the potential to reach up to 300 million subscribers, taking the biggest boxing fight of the year to the wider masses.
When Netflix live-streamed the Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight last November, the main event received up to 108 million viewers.
Canelo-Crawford has been titled, "The One", because the winner will certainly become the pound-for-pound #1 star in boxing. The fight poster and event name is designed almost exactly the same as when Canelo Alvarez faced Floyd Mayweather in 2013.
The fight will delivered be in association with Sela, Riyadh Season, Dana White and Turki Alalshikh, while also marking the worldwide launch of Zuffa Boxing.
Making the fight official, UFC CEO Dana White said, "Turki Alalshikh wants to make the biggest fights that the fans want to see in boxing and this is right up my alley.
"Are you kidding me that my first boxing fight that I’m going to get to promote is Canelo vs. Crawford? It’s literally a once-in-a-lifetime fight."
