    i think he beats crawford. i think his size alone will give bud problems, as he wont be stunned by punches bud is used to hurting guys with. then his aggressiveness will also give bud problems cause bud has a tendency to exchange in the pocket when he doesnt need to, and thats a bad idea against a bigger, stronger fighter. bud will eventually get worn down enough to lose that technical edge he has, cause porter wont get worn down at the same pace bud will. i think we get to see bud hit the canvas in this one. whether porter can keep him there remains to be seen. i got porter by split decision on the strength of a knock down.

    My gut is no. I think Crawford smokes him.

    he will bother him and give him a tough fight, but not beat him. Crawford will win decisively and UD. I don't know why people think he can beat him. Porter has been like Doug Dewitt in the 1980s.. Gives guys good fights and makes them look bad since he has fast enough hands, but he does not beat the top guys. it is a good workout for Crawford, but nothing to help Crawford get legitimacy.

    Shawn Porter should give Terrance Bud Crawford a very stern test. Crawford is now in the major leagues as far as this fight. Crawford should win but it is not going to be a cakewalk, a tough competitive fight.
