Terence Crawford looks back at WWE SmackDown experience.
Professional boxer Terence Crawford sat front row for Friday's WWE SmackDown, and helped out Cody Rhodes by handing him a chair to help fend off Austin Theory & Grayson Waller.
Speaking to Ariel Helwani on the MMA Hour, Crawford was asked about attending the event.
"It was dope. Got invited to actually go to SmackDown being in Omaha. I have been a big wrestling fan for as long as I can remember. As a little kid, growing up watching WWF and watching The Rock, Undertaker Stone Cold Steve Austin. All these big wrestling stars. I always wanted to imitate the moves and the things that they did. Of course, I'm going to be supported by my city. I took my kids, they loved it. We did what we did and we make history again," he said.
Asked if he may ever do a match, Crawford replied, "I don't know. I haven't gotten into it that far. The experience was second to none. It was electrifying. I was nervous doing it. It was different. It was dope and a good feeling. Not only was it my hometown, but it was WWE, a big platform."
Over the weekend, Crawford got into a social media battle with Waller.
Crawford is the reigning World Boxing Association (WBA) (Super version) and World Boxing Organization (WBO) welterweight. He is set to fight Israil Madrimov on August 3.
