In a major event, the expected undisputed super middleweight title fight between champion Canelo Álvarez and challenger Terence Crawford, to be held at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, will have an additional prize of great value: a unique championship ring. The World Boxing Council (WBC) has unveiled the first championship ring of the WBC Crown Undisputed series, designed by Rasheen Farlow, WBC strategic partner, and created by Jason of Beverly Hills. The jewel, crafted in yellow gold, boasts almost 10 carats of stones, including 8.5 carats of white diamonds, and is valued at over $100,000.
By turning the top of the ring, a representation of Allegiant Stadium is revealed with a quadrilateral in the center of the field and the names of Crawford and Canelo in their respective scoring zones. One side of the ring shows the date of the fight over the Ring Magazine logo and a pair of boxing gloves. The other side bears the inscription “Undisputed” and the WBC initials in diamonds, along with the year.The belt will always be sacred in boxing, it is the jewel in the crown of tradition. But a ring? A ring carries the legacy to your fingers. It is a monument that can be worn.
