and this gonna be upset of the year. Crawford won't be able to withstand against Porter's unending pressure.
Im rooting for him, but Crawford is no joke.one thing is certain though, and that is I finally get to see how good Crawford really is. Warrr porter
I think so. I rewatched that Crawford vs Kavaliauskus fight and noticed that Bud had a big problem with Mean Machine’s physicality early which led to him getting dropped. Mean machine eventually wore down and Bud eventually caught him. Shawn Porter is not slowing down and always in the excellent condition. I think Bud is about to get smothered sort of how Ward did Allan Green in the S6 tourney.
i'm rooting for Porter he's the only one who has gone in against everyone and seems a decent and likeable guy out of the ring. This will give us a better understanding of who the best is at welter may the best man win.
I'm with you..think there's some great beta for upsets this weekend ..think porter gonna take him deep and drown him
Bud has fought a lot of never quite there fighters, very good but not great. The likes of Burn, Brook, Khan the latter way past their best for a guy who is so good there are still question marks over how good Crawfod is. World Class, elite, atg - all are possible this fight will go a good way to telling us. Crawford narrowly on points.
i'm rooting for Porter and i like him as a person, i was never really impressed by Crawford to be honest....so yeah i can see that being a very close and competitive fight BUT....i doubt Porter will get a decision if its just close... Crawford by Decision. 116-112, 115-113, 117-111 like.
Want Porter to win but I believe Crawford will win. I see him catching Porter with accurate shots. He's got good timing and might even get a KO when Porter comes in like he does.
Porter will make things very uncomfortable for Crawford in the early rounds, but he'll be timed charging in eventually and, remember, Bud has orthodox and southpaw from which he can choose to do this once he's come to terms with the pressure and worked out where the opportunities are. Brook timed Porter with a lead right hand all fight - pretty much won it with this punch - so I expect Crawford will find the key to the lock, wear Porter down and potentially stop him late...
It's going past 6 homie. Porter has never been stopped and he's been in with some big punchers in the division and has shown he has a top notch chin. I think it goes the distance, and Porter holds his own and some. Crawford may even get legitimately Knocked down too.
