Cracking fight and I think Porter will give Crawford hell. It's about time Crawford fights someone with a pulse that can give him a challenge. This has the possibility of another FOTY and Showtime always brings the best out of the elite fighters he fights.
Crawford will do everything in his power to make a voluntary defense instead. He avoids top 10 welterweights like the plague.
Great fight if it happens and one which Crawford desperately needs right now. Rooting for Porter if it happens though.
Porter is a very strong welterweight who uses his strength in rough house exchanges mauling and brawling and he fights with courage. Against Bud these tactics will have him eating clean shots trying to get in and wearing down. If he can go the distance I'd see a 116-112 card. But I kinda doubt it, might place a bet on the over/under on rounds if it's around10.
Crawford will do everything in his power to duck porter, even if that means giving up the WBO title. I hope im wrong.
I see this breaking out into a war by the 3rd. Nobody can keep Porter off them for an entire round, let alone the entire fight. Once Porter starts in on TC he won't back down and the war will begin. Very good fight.
