Terence Crawford, boxing’s pound-for-pound star, recently found himself at the center of a hilarious mix-up during a UFC event at the Sphere in Las Vegas.
While attending the event, Crawford was mistakenly referred to as rapper Kendrick Lamar, a mishap that left fans and Crawford himself in stitches.
Taking to social media, Crawford called out the UFC in a playful manner, suggesting that the mistake was made “intentionally, just for laughs.” Rather than expressing frustration, Crawford embraced the humor of the situation, posting lighthearted messages and jokes about the mix-up.
Fans quickly joined in on the fun, with memes and comments flooding social media, comparing the two stars and applauding Crawford for taking the error in stride. His good-natured response turned what could have been an awkward moment into an amusing highlight of the night.
Crawford’s ability to laugh off the blunder only further endeared him to fans, showing that even world champions aren’t above a bit of humor—especially when mistaken for one of hip-hop’s biggest icons.
