Terence Crawford made history in emphatic fashion on Saturday night with a dominant TKO victory over Errol Spence to become the undisputed welterweight champion of the world. Crawford scored three knockdowns — one in the second round and two in the seventh — before the fight was stopped by the referee in the closing stages of the ninth.
With the victory, Crawford unified the WBA, WBC and IBF titles with his WBO title, and established himself as the current welterweight king.
He also made history in the process by becoming the first undisputed welterweight champion of the four-belt era. Not only that, but Crawford is also the first male fighter to fully unify multiple divisions after previously holding all four belts at junior welterweight. The first fighter to pull off that feat was Claressa Shields in 2021, when she became the undisputed champion of the women’s junior middleweight division to go along with her four belts at middleweight.
Now that Crawford has etched his name in the record books, here’s a look at every undisputed titleholder of the four-belt era, which began in 2004.
