Legendary American rapper and music icon Eminem joined boxing star Terence Crawford as he walked in towards the ring on July 29. Crawford was fighting against another undefeated superstar Errol Spence Jr in Las Vegas.
Prior to his fight, Crawford was introduced by the legendary Eminem as the music icon’s one of the biggest hits ‘Lose Yourself’ played in the background. The speculations that something iconic was about to take place started when the two greats connected over social media. Crawford had posted a video of him training on his social media, where he also said that he would love Eminem to walk him during his fight.

In the video, Crawford could be heard saying, “You know what I was thinking would be crazy s***? I think it would be dope to have Eminem walk me out or something like that.” Eminem responded positively to it and said that Crawford is one of his most favourite boxers.
As luck would have it, the 50-year-old music icon proved to be lucky for the boxer and he ended up getting ninth-round TKO victory fight to become the undisputed Welterweight champion. Before the fight, Spence stood at 28-0 and Crawford at 39-0.
