Super Channel subscribers will be able to watch this Saturday night’s World
Junior Welterweight Unification Championship between undefeated world
champions, *Terence Crawford* and *Julius “Blue Machine” Indongo*, starting

City’s famed Madison Square Garden, Crawford successfully defended his
crowns by way of a 10th round knockout over former Olympic gold medalist *Felix
Diaz*.
Arguably one of the top five pound-for-pound fighters in the world today,
Crawford unified the world titles July 23, 2016, winning a 12-round
unanimous decision over then undefeated WBC super lightweight titlist *Viktor
Postol*.
His triumph against Postol also earned Crawford The Ring title and
designated him as the 140-pound division lineal champion. Crawford has also
defeated *John Molina, Jr*., *Thomas Dulorme*, *Hank Lundy*, *Ricky
Burns*, *Yuriokis
Gamboa* and *Ray Beltran* among the more notables.
