    Next offer to Porter should be a legit offer
    2 million.
    Porter brings uncertainty and discomfort to all he faces.
    Dude is like a ****** FKN a football with his cling wrapped aze all over you from round 1.
    Porter eats away at your gas tank by smothering your work

    As I said, it's just so entitled.

    Crawford is the one with the higher ranking, the belts, the P4P status.

    That can all be Porters if he takes the fight and wins.

    If Porter gets 2 million and Crawford gets more, whoever promotes the fight will lose a ton of money.
    PBC has been over paying guys and losing money for some time now but they have succeeded in giving a lot of fighters an over-inflated idea of what they are worth.
    Especially if you are trying to make fights now with limitations on the size of the live audience, which puts a substantial dent in the amount you can make and puts it all on ppv buys.

    That is correct but if I’m Porter and seeing jokers like Broner get 4 million a fight at least honor my worth and give me 2 million

    When you are Big Al you have to lose money to make money or in case just to keep money

    But who's he going to fight?

    He's turned down Crawford, he's already lost to Spence and Thurman.

    What's his alternative?

    Porter is a bigger name than brook in the U.S I'm assuming...if so, then he's worth the same as brook in the very least, surely.

    It’s not entitled considering Porter can make $1 million without Crawford as he’s proven plenty of times before and even in his most recent fight several months ago.

    Crawford despite having a title is running out of credible opponents, so he needs Porter more than Porter needs him. Porter has plenty of options at 147 or even 154 where he could make money, so it makes perfect sense for Porter to turn down this offer.

    Ideally, I’d agree. But business-wise, titles are plentiful and numerous, and change hands non-stop. They fight for money, and Porter can and has done better against lesser guys.

    A guy the caliber of Crawford , with a big time org behind him should be able to make better offers to a top welter, when that is the specifc item missing from Crawford’s resume.

    Porter needs the fight, up to him if he takes it.
