How to watch the Top Rank Boxing: Terence Crawford vs. Amir Khan PPV with ESPN Plus

This Saturday, welterweight champion Terence Crawford will defend his title against former junior welterweight champion Amir Khan at Madison Square Garden. Here's how you can watch this highly anticipated pay-per-view event.

On Saturday, April 20, current welterweight world champion Terence Crawford will defend his title against former junior welterweight champion Amir Khan at Madison Square Garden in New York City. These talented veteran boxers will square off at 9 p.m. ET, and if you want to watch this highly anticipated pay-per-view event, you have a number of options. Read on to find out more about the matchup and how you can watch it live.

Omaha native Terence Crawford is one of the best in his weight class with a shining record of 34 wins – 25 by knockout – and zero losses. The fast-handed boxer is known for his quick style and his ability to switch between orthodox and southpaw stances Along with being the current World Boxing Organization welterweight champion (a title he won last June shortly after vacating his unified light welterweight championship), Crawford has held multiple belts across the lightweight, light welterweight, and welterweight classes.

Amir Khan clearly has his work cut out for him if he wants to dish out Crawford’s first defeat. Khan’s record of 33 wins (20 by knockout) and four losses isn’t flawless like that of Crawford, but the British-born former WBO junior welterweight title holder remains one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in his class. Although Crawford is favored to win, it’s not likely that Khan will be an easy takedown for the American champion. Prior to the main event, the Terence Crawford vs. Amir Khan pay-per-view undercard will feature a junior middleweight bout between NABF champion Carlos Adames who is defending his title against challenger Frank Galarza. Four other undercard fights are planned as well, and you can view the lineup here.

The Top Rank Boxing: Terence Crawford vs. Amir Khan main card is scheduled for 9 p.m ET, with the undercard matches slated for 6 p.m. The pay-per-view event costs $70, and since it’s not an exclusive broadcast, you can order it directly from major cable and satellite providers including Cox, DirecTV, Dish, and Spectrum. Digital customers can stream the fight through the ESPN or Fite.tv apps, which is available on Android, Roku, Apple TV, Google Chromecast, Amazon Fire TV, PlayStation, and Xbox.

You can purchase this fight and stream it online with ESPN Plus, which is the latest online streaming platform for live sports and events. They do offer a free trial for this service, but if you want access to this PPV match, you will need to buy an entire year of the service as well. Considering it’s only $50 per year for access to live UFC fights, original content, and a wide array of other sports, it’s actually a pretty good deal for anyone that wants to get access to content on the go.

YouTube videos could soon look better without eating quite so much data, right? Thankfully, the platform plans to introduce a new video format called AV2 on its web player in early 2027, promising more efficient streaming and potentially fewer playback hiccups on slower internet connections. The big headline is a roughly 30% improvement in compression efficiency over AV1, YouTube's existing video format. That doesn't guarantee every video will use 30% less data, but it could make streaming a little easier on both internet connections and data allowances.

What is AV2, and why should viewers care?

YouTube is changing how its Home page works, giving viewers more control over what shows up there and making some of the app’s most-used sections easier to reach. Custom Feeds are now replacing the existing topic chips for eligible users, while YouTube is also testing a redesigned top bar on mobile that moves Subscriptions closer to the Home feed.

YouTube first started experimenting with Custom Feeds earlier this year, letting you type out what you wanted to watch and turning that request into its own stream of recommendations. Now, the feature is starting to look less like a side experiment and more like something YouTube actually wants people to use as part of their everyday Home page.
