With the win, Crawford became the first male boxer in the four-belt era to be undisputed champ in three weight classes.

The Omaha native finished his career with a perfect 42-0 record, including 31 knockouts.

His titles range from the lightweight division to the super middleweight division.

Earlier this month, the World Boxing Council stripped Crawford of his super middleweight title for failing to pay their sanctioning fees, according to ESPN.
