    Porter but Crawdad was closing the gap as the fight progressed. It looked to me like Porter was wearing down a bit. Crawford appeared to be getting stronger.

    Decent fight, closer than I thought it would be. I thought Crawford would make a statement and dominate his toughest opponent but it didn’t go down like that. Maybe it was rust or maybe I overestimated Crawford.

    I had it 5-4 Crawford but could see it 5-4 other way. It was close. Crawford seemed much fresher of the two though going into last 3 rounds.

    Porter's dad robbed Crawford of a dominating victory.

    Same. All these people who are saying that Porter was way ahead, or that he was easily winning, I have no idea what fight they were watching.

    They predetermine who they wanted to win, or thought would win, or hoped would lose and score accordingly. Just how it goes here in a lot of cases.

    I had it 86-85 Crawford. My son had the same score going the other way. Enjoyable fight which I wish wasn't stopped the way it was.

    i stopped judging rds, or the action as a whole, when i had it 4-1 porter. figured bud would have to do something dramatic to get the fight back and started concentrating on specific things in the action. certain movements, certain responses, so i stopped keeping score. would have to rewatch the second half of the fight. it felt like porter by 2 just from the impression.
