Crawford vs. Dulorme scheduled for April 18 on HBO

Dan Rafael is reporting that lightweight champion Terence Crawford, who is moving to junior welterweight in his next bout, will face Thomas Dulorme on April 18 in an HBO main event.  No venue has been set for this bout yet. It is being said that the fight could be for the title that was stripped from Chris Algieri. 

Both Crawford’s and Dulorme’s promoters are working together on finalizing the deal.


Crawford (25-0, 17 KOs), is the ESPN.com 2014 Fighter of the Year.  Crawford was supposed to fight at Madison Square Garden on March 21, but that card completely fell apart.
