Both fighters shared their initial thoughts on the impending match.
"When I began my journey in professional boxing, I aspired to face fighters like Terence. Today, I have the opportunity to challenge our esteemed boxer, Terence Crawford, the top-ranked P4P leader. I admire his style and respect him, but this is my division. Come August 3rd, I'll be prepared to defend my title," said Madrimov.
