    Happy 34th bday to BUD.

    Excited for the Porter fight so we can finally see where a 34 year old who has been top 2 on most p4p lists for 5 years stands.

    Crawford may have the worst resume ever for someone ranked so highly on the P4P list

    P4P lists are rubbish that are QUICKLY forgotten in history, even belts holders are forgotten.

    Fights & resumes hold forever

    Make me another in that camp!

    Shawn seems very confident in last couple of Porter Way podcasts since it was made official.

    Even though many folks see Shawn as "limited" or "bull-rush" type of fighter, he's NEVER been dominated and nearly always manages to get his opponent out of their game and somehow fighting his kind of fight.

    If Bud whoops Porter like some folks are saying - KO by the 6th and other carzy stuff! - then he will get every credit from me

    At Welterweight alone he's beaten Khan, Brook, Porter, Jose Benavidez Jr, Jeff Horn. These are all solid opposition.

    He hasn't just beaten these fighters either he's destroyed them all more emphatically than anybody else ever has.

    A shot to **** Khan who had been OBLITERATED by Garcia and Canelo and was barely in the top 10.

    A one eyed brook who had been beaten down by GGG and Spence.

    A Porter who needed a robbery vs. Ugas two fights before, and had 3 losses, lost every time he stepped up. Decent win I guess.

    Jose Benavidez Jr. is a fringe top 10 guy.

    Jeff Horn is famous for his PAC robbery and hasn't done anything before or after.

    Not a legendary resume. God awful resume for a supposed p4p fighter.

    Cant disagree you made very factual points there:

    Khan he came for the payday & to further continue his duck quest of Kell Brook,

    Brook tried but we knew where he stood,

    Porter did rob Ugas, that's why ever since then he has been over praising Ugas in interviews & at ringside in commentary,

    Benavidez Jr has never been the same since he got shot & has further degraded due to his inactivity sad,

    Horn & the whole of lames of Australia without a doubt Robbed Pacquiao & even the "CompuBox Lovers" out there couldn't comprehend nether defend it, but occasionally you will see some of them pop up & try, pathetic,

    Superb.

    Never said it was a legendary resume but how is Spence's resume so much better? Porter pushed Spence all the way too.

    Spence's resume is hardly better. His best win is going overseas to beat down Brook. His win over Porter is better as Shawn still seemed to have his heart in the game and wasn't already transitioning to commentary. It's thin.

    At the same time, far fewer people are putting Spence as p4p #1, are they? Crawford has enjoyed quite a stay near the top of the list without doing much of anything.
