For our shows: Entertainment & Sports Today and Entertainment Today for over 25 years Kristal Hart has covered many Entertainment related events, and special live events in New York, the East Coast, and overseas, but specializes in sporting events, and she is at her best for Boxing title championship fights, so she flew out to Los Angeles from New York to cover for us the live Boxing WBA Super-Welterweight Title Championship fight: Terence “Bud” Crawford (Right of the photo a few paragraphs down) VS. Israel Madrimov (Left of the same photo). So just by an amazing coincidence her hotel that she was staying at: The JW Marriott Hotel was only 20 feet away from the Peacock Theater at LA Live, where THE 73rd MISS USA PAGEANT, and the Miss Teen USA Beauty Pageant were both being held- so we got her a press credential to also cover these 2 big events for us!So our EntertainmentandSportsToday.com and Entertainment Today TV Reporter Kristal Hart was live last night at the Peacock Theater at LA Live for the Miss Teen USA Beauty Pageant: To report that Addie Carver Wins Miss Teen USA 2024 in a Ethereal Sherri Hill Gown With Shimmering Details:
The 42nd Miss Teen USA was held earlier today- Thursday in Los Angeles, and on this Sunday is the 73rd MISS USA PAGEANT!Also our EntertainmentandSportsToday.com and Entertainment Today TV Reporter Kristal Hart was live at the BMO Stadium in Expo Park to report on this very close boxing championship fight. Kristal reported that the boxing WBA Super-Welterweight Title Championship fight: Terence “Bud” Crawford – 36 Years Old VS. Israel Madrimov – 29 Years Old, was a unanimous decision going to Crawford, who won the fight 115-113 on two scorecards and 116-112 on the third to claim the unanimous decision. That pushed him to 41-0, and officially handed Madrimov the first loss of his career. “He only had 11 fights, but he was strong,” Crawford said. On this show: Kristal will take you to all the Pre-fight events, including the Weigh-In, all the press conference days, and the exciting big fight day!That means he’s now won world boxing championships in four weight divisions: 135, 140, 147, and 154 pounds. He currently holds the World Boxing Association (WBA) (Super version), World Boxing Organization (WBO), and The Ring welterweight titles and the (WBA) light middleweight title. Terence Crawford is now the consensus best pound-for-pound boxer in the world:
It was closer than expected in this hard fought fight! It was clear from the early rounds that Madrimov was going to present an intriguing challenge to Crawford, arguably the sport’s best pound-for-pound fighter. Madrimov showcased fast hands and good footwork, feinting and moving to keep Crawford from getting comfortable and letting his hands go in the way he has against so many other great fighters: Crawford worked a hard jab, maintaining a southpaw stance throughout the fight and not doing his usual stance switching, and used that jab to open up straight lefts and hard uppercuts. But Madrimov continued to make things tough, especially when he realized that Crawford was open to straight right hands. The momentum shifted back and forth several times, with one fighter seeming to establish a flow for a few rounds before the other man would suddenly impose his own game plan.
