Crawford has also extended his professional record to an impressive 42-0.
Speaking after the fight, the American said: "I knew I won when the last bell rang. God doesn't make mistakes and I'm here for a reason, I've been telling you that all week.
"I don't think he was less conditioned or anything, he was a thousand per cent prepared, I just think I was the better man."
Reacting to the fight, Eubank Jr, took to social media and appeared to call out Crawford.
He wrote on his official X account: "Eubank x Crawford 2026," with an ice-cold emoji.
In the comments section, one fan said: "Yes please."
Another tweeted: "It'd be a good fight, Canelo isn't the same Canelo any more, he's had too many fights and it's time to retire, Crawford is a good tactician but you have heart power and speed, I'd like to see it happen."
A third fan added: "Eubank Jr smokes Crawford… Anyone who disagrees doesn’t know s*** about boxing."
Someone else wrote: "I like you Chris but even on Crawford’s worst day you’re still no match."
A fifth commented: "Why not fight Canelo first."
Eubank Jr last entered the ring back in April this year, when he took on old foe Conor Benn at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.
After going the full distance, Eubank Jr saw his arm lifted in the air as the winner via unanimous decision.
At the time, Judges Lee Every, Kieran McCann and Mark Bates all scored the bout 116-112 in Eubank Jr's favour.
