    Great fight..a glimmer of hope for us boxing nuts that the times are a changing.

    What's you're predictions? I've got bud by a decisive points win and a couple of flash knockdowns.

    I can't wait for this fight. Crawford is a nasty guy in the ring and with something to prove I think he might be able to stop Porter.

    Big test for Crawford I think. First decent fighter he’s fought at 147. Khan and Brook were shot, Kavaliauskas is okay I guess and Jeff Horn got the belt on a robbery against Manny.

    A lot of people don't rate Crawford on here.but I think he's going to do a number on the limited porter.

    I agree and think he will bash him up pretty badly. One sided fight for me.

    Porter is a big strong welter, my worries about Bud has always been he came from LW - Porter fought Usyk in the amateurs remember, so he’s always been big.

    The upset could be on here, but if Bud gets through he is legit number 1 at Welter.

    Porter hasn't got the IQ to beat Bud.

    I think Bud will dissect him and stop him late.

    Classic mesh of styles though.

    Love Porter after his great performance against Spence. If Bud boxes at his beat he should win this comfortably. Porter has a chin but Crawford has top much. Again though could be a cracking fight.

    I disagree about Porter not having the IQ. Porter is better and smarter boxer than he is given credit for. HIs physical talent is often overlooked as well.

    Crawford is a top, top fighter. One who bizarrely seems to be extremely underrated. I think he stops Porter around 8-9.
