we shall see, cause aint nobody crossed the street yet. only b level fighters been allowed to cross it.
I think Crawford will win it courtesy of a flash KD, but man, Porter is gonna make Crawford too ordinary than how we are used to seeing him. It's going to be close ala Spence-Porter.
Oh definitely, because when you fight Porter you know he’s coming to fight. So it will be a really good gauge to see how Crawford handles it
Damn a sanctioning body actually doing something good for once. Hopefully now the fight can get made. This definitely puts the pressure on Crawford to improve his offer to Porter, he might not like it but if the fight happens and he wins convincingly then the benefit to him in the long term may reap greater benefits.
Would that be his call or Arum's? Can't see Bob wanting to give up much on a fighter that's soon out of contract. If it's coming out of bud's share he may stand his ground on the 60/40 split and take an easier fight for the last one on the TR contract. As a free agent he may be able to strike a 2 or 3 fight deal with Mr I got all the welterweights?
You gotta ask yourself, Who has Porter actually beat. He lost to Spence , Brook, and Thurman, all title shots. He Garcia for an empty belt and that could have went either way. He also had a questionable fight with Ugas, so you see, while he is a good test, he ain't no winner. Crawford is a winner and gon prove it. Porter in more trouble than he been in his entire career.
oh, im not picking porter, although i think it will be photo finish. but ive always said spence beats crawford. so if that fight happens, and crawford beats him, thats 6 years worth of ass talk i got to swallow. luckily, i still love my chances.
None of those fighters are close to Porter's effective pressure! I pick Bud to win a very close fight, but won't be surprised if Porter win by split decision.
Porter will rough Bud up for a few rounds. I truly expect this to go into the humble hands of the judges
