“He Was Still Mad About the Packers, Cowgirls Game”: Terence Crawford Gives Cheeky Response After Tasting Defeat Against NFL WR Dez Bryant

While Terence Crawford does not really have a substantial opponent to look forward to for a fight, he has decided to keep active regardless with the NFL star, Desmond Bryant. Though he was up for a rematch with Errol Spence Jr after their one-sided bout last year, in a cryptic X message, he expressed a certain disinterest in ever facing Spence again. Canelo Álvarez, meanwhile, is another opponent that he wants to go up against. In the meantime, Dez Bryant is giving the Omaha native some much-needed competition.

In a video that Bryant posted on his X account, the two could be seen engaging in a fun game. Can the former Dallas Cowboys Wide Receiver give the No.1 pound-for-pound boxer a juke? Well, that is exactly what he did.

Dez Bryant secures a win against the undefeated Terence Crawford

Bryant, who hasn’t officially retired from sports but took a hiatus due to a torn Achilles tendon in November 2018 that ended his season, engaged in a friendly 1v1 with Crawford in the video. Despite Crawford’s background in boxing, Bryant demonstrated superior skills, utilizing a ‘goosestep’ to maneuver past Crawford easily. “I went 1 on 1 with the champ! Had to show em it’s real @terencecrawford Made me wanted to get back out there!” Bryant captioned the clip.

Crawford then replied to the post, humorously suggesting that Bryant might still harbor feelings about the Cowboys vs. Packers game result. The Green Bay Packers played against Bryant’s former team Dallas Cowboys on January 15, 2024, at AT&T Stadium.

The game ended with a score of 48-32 in favor of the Green Bay Packers. Incidentally, Bryant was present in the stadium when his former team met with the loss. Thus, Crawford made it a point to bring that up. He wrote, “He was still mad about the Packers, Cowgirls game so he tried to take it out one me.”

Crawford playfully remarked that Bryant seemed to be taking out his frustration on him during their 1v1 encounter, while also taking a playful dig at his team, calling them ‘cowgirls’.

Is Tim Tszyu the next fight for Terence Crawford?

Terence Crawford, the American boxing sensation, is contemplating a move up in weight to challenge Tim Tszyu for the WBO super welterweight title. This clash may materialize as his next bout. Team Crawford trainer Bernie Davis considers the 29-year-old Tszyu as the most enticing option after his impressive string of victories in 2023 against Tony Harrison, Carlos Ocampo, and Brian Mendoza.

With Tszyu likely to face Erickson Lubin in late March, a potential matchup with Crawford might be on the horizon for the undefeated Australian. Crawford was initially eyeing a rematch with Errol Spence. However, he shifted focus due to Spence’s cataract surgery, paving the way for an exciting opportunity against Tszyu.

A change in weight classes might affect performance, especially against the ‘Soul Taker’. With Bryant helping Crawford for his next bout, do you think the P4P king will continue to better his record? Or will Tszyu snatch the victory?
