    Looks like this could be next. Who wins and would this be Crawfords best win if he managed to win. I think if he does win then he will have to work hard for it.

    I still think thurman would be a good test for spence or Crawford but can't see him getting in the mix in 2021.

    If its Crawford v porter and pacman v spence and winners meet then 2021 has been a great year for the welterweight.

    Would love to see this fight. Porter would indeed be Crawford's toughest test to date as he is skilled, durable and never runs out of steam. I think Porter will not let Bud fight at the pace he likes and will make him work. I'll take Bud by a close, but clear decision that he'll have to work for every round.

    Crawford really needs to step up the competition and fight someone like Porter next. People are definitely getting tired of him taking on all these mismatched opponents. With that being said, I think Crawford wins this fight 2 out of 3 times.

    it would be one of these fights who really can go in either ways.Unpredictable.The only predictable is that Crawford won't accept such a challenge.

    Action packed.

    I would say crawford by KO. Porter just cant stop pushing forward, and crawford loves too much to finish a fight with a KO, he cant settle with an easy win by points.

    Porter is cool, I like him, but his boxing is too basic. push push push throw throw throw.. push... push again, throw thrwo push throw....

    Good luck winning to crawford like that.

    Good fight but I always feel with Crawford he fights other boxers left overs.
    Crawford never steps out & faces the boxers no one else has or a real danger.

    Hopefully they make it happen fast because pretty soon there will be a few 140lbs guys with Top Rank moving up and then Bud will have all the easy wins he can eat for 2-3 years.

    I’m happy with this fight.

    porter is non stop aggression and crawford is very good at countering. Yes please!

    btw Thurman has become quite irrelevant in this division since losing to manny imo

    Porter Crawford will be more entertaining than Crawford Spence

    The style match up is a good one. I like Porter more than I like Crawford, and I would be cheering for Porter to win. But I believe Crawford can knock out Porter because of Crawford's ability to fight and counter moving backwards.

    I like this fight. Porter should make it tough for TC, but I see TC with a clear win, while tough at spots.
