    IDK what was actually changed, but the culprit received this warning from wiki mods:

    "Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Terence Crawford, you may be blocked from editing."

    I’ve seen it. It’s just the stats as far as I can see. Check his pro career stats, Rocky Marciano fans will not be happy. Also he’s no longer just a 3 times undisputed and lineal Heavyweight champion.His gold winning achievements at the Olympics seems to have improved as well. Lol.

    The editor forgot to change the notes on the first Norton fight.

    It has him winning by SD but says “Lost NABF heavyweight title”

    Or is his Wikipedia record true, and we’ve been hit with a new case of the Mandela Effect?
