According to Dan Rafael of espn.com, WBO/WBC Super Lightweight champion Terence Crawford will return to the ring on December 10th in Omaha, Nebraska.
“We’re hoping to get it done and hoping to get a good opponent,” Crawford’s promoter Bob Arum said. “We’re working on Dec. 10 for Crawford, but we and HBO only want to do it if it’s a significant fight.”
“We had a date on HBO in January, and they asked us if Crawford could move to December once they lost the Golovkin fight, and Crawford was OK with that,” Arum said.
“We’ll see what happens. We’re talking to them about trying to clear the date,” Arum said. “If they can’t do it, we’ll have to look to see where else we can go, but Terence is a great draw in Omaha.”
“He wants to fight,” Dunkin said. “He down (in San Juan, Puerto Rico) for the WBO convention and he ran into (Top Rank vice president) Carl Moretti and said he is ready to go. So he wants to fight. Right now it’s about getting an opponent and working out the money with everyone. Terence has never been a guy who doesn’t want to fight.”
