Tough contender and former world title challenger Ray Beltran puts in work ahead of his clash with WBO lightweight champion Terence Crawford this weekend on HBO. Despite being a clear underdog heading into the match, Beltran (29-6-1, 17 KO’s) is as worthy of a challenger as you will find and his grit, toughness, and pressure will all be on display this weekend.
