Is Canelo vs Crawford free on Netflix tonight?

This fight marks an ambitious endeavour from Crawford, 37, with the American hitting a career-highest weight, having previously held gold at lightweight, super-lightweight, welterweight and most recently super-welterweight.

Crawford’s unbeaten record (41-0, 31 knockouts) is also on the line, while Mexico’s Canelo (63-2-2, 39 KOs) – a former super-welterweight, middleweight and light-heavyweight champ – puts his reputation on the line to an extent. If anyone can overcome the natural size disparity, though, it is surely Crawford, who is seen by many as the best boxer of this generation, and who could become the first three-weight undisputed king of the modern era.

Alongside Mike Tyson’s bizarre but enthralling bout with YouTuber Jake Paul in November, and Floyd Mayweather vs Manny Pacquiao in 2015, this is one of the biggest bouts of the last decade. Here’s all you need to know.

When is the fight?

Canelo vs Crawford will take place on Saturday 13 September at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. The main card is expected to begin at 2am BST on Sunday (6pm PT / 8pm CT / 9pm ET on Saturday), with main-event ring walks due at around 4.30am BST on Sunday (8.30pm PT / 10.30pm CT / 11.30pm ET on Saturday).
