Terence Crawford vs Shawn Porter Deal Reached for November 20 at the Mandalay Bay?

I still say Crawford does not want this fight and will find a way out.....covid.....training injury.......drop the belt. I hope I'm wrong but he has never showed any interest in fighting anyone not named Pacman....and after the Ugas fight I think we know why. personally I think it was more of a situation of why waste his time calling out people that were not going to fight him anyways.

Exactly. And think about what you just said. Porter has been in more wars. Every fight he's had at 147 was a war. Every. Last. One. That means Porter should be on the decline, yet Porter has never been dominated by anybody. In fact he looked stronger and tougher than ever against Spence. Meanwhile Crawford is fresh off getting his eye closed by the ghost of Kell Brook and dropping all four rounds. What's that tell us? It tells us that when you have in-the-trench, top level opponent experience, it actually helps you. That's why I say Crawford is at a HUGE disadvantage. He has nowhere near the battle tested experience at any weight, much less 147. Good point about Crawford having much more deep water, battle tested experience. Those arduous battles that Porter has had shows us his worthiness but at what stage can we start saying that he’s on the decline? His style doesn’t age well.

I do think Crawford will KO Porter. So surely you shouldn't be concerned with the potential scenario where Bud scrapes a win, loses,etc. Right?

Porter on the Triller broadcast just said the fight hasn't been made, talked a little about it but said it hasn't been made yet.

PBC fans who stated Crawford didn’t stand a chance against Porter are now saying Crawford sucks if he doesn’t win every round against Porter. Hmmmmm, what changed? I know, they’re actually going to fight! You were likewise saying Bud is much better than Spence who" barely beat gatekeeper,not very good" Porter & now you don't feel confident expecting Bud to ko him? What made you lose confidence in your main man bruh?

Boxingscene has Spence Top 5 PFP and he won 6-6 w/ KD...now Terrence needs to win 9-3 or better? Thankfully your opinion not mean a f*in thing I've broken this down before. For spence to have won 6-6, the only score that is possible in the the fight is 6-3 in favor of Porter after 9 rounds because Spence CLEARLY won the last 3 rounds with the knockdown in the 11th. To claim that porter was robbed(as many have), he would have had to been up 7-2 or 8-1 after 9. Even if you had Porter up 5-4 after 9, he lost the last 3 with a knockdown. What were your scores after 9? Because there is no way you gave Porter 6 of the first 9 rounds. I don't know how that's possible. Every time I bring this scoring scenario up, you guys ignore it until it it gets lost in the thread. But I'm gonna keep asking, what were your scores after 9? Larry Hazzard Jr gave Spence 4 rounds total and didn't even give him the 10th!!!. but this is the same Larry Hazzard jr that gave Charlo 11 rounds against korobov in a fight I felt he lost. I've never scored that fight but from watching, I know there is no way in hell Charlo won 11 rounds.

I really hope this is true. I love Crawford vs Porter! Anyone know if there are more sources or more proof that this is a done deal?

Boxingscene has Spence Top 5 PFP and he won 6-6 w/ KD...now Terrence needs to win 9-3 or better? Thankfully your opinion not mean a f*in thing If Bud beats Porter clearly as can be,(which Im willing to bet isn't gonna happen) he will finally have beaten his 1st true ww contender,he better kd Porter or ko him if he wants to be the 1st guy who clearly beats Porter by blowout (Brook clenched the sht outta young Porter the entire fight(like he always gets away with) & that's also 1 reason I never agreed with those saying Brook won clearly.

Blowout = shutout. IF you win more than 9 rounds, that's a blowout. Or a shutout. Period. Anyone who actually watched that fight knows that Broner didn't even try for 11 rounds. He didn't even throw for like 6 of them. So how do the other cards make sense? They don't, but it's Broner. "At The End Of The Day", Shawn Porter is better than you and others give him credit for, which is why (sadly) he's the best opponent Crawford will have ever faced, AND Crawford has a hell of a lot to prove against a very tough opponent that could very likely upset him. Even Crawford knows that, which is why BoMac has been quiet about it. Boxingscene has Spence Top 5 PFP and he won 6-6 w/ KD...now Terrence needs to win 9-3 or better? Thankfully your opinion not mean a f*in thing

ok great, get this fight done already been long enough. porter isnt that good ,loses all his big fights, this will be the same except he will get KO brutally Too simple a view. He had a case for winning he Brook, Thurman and Spence fights, and was very unlucky to lose all 3. Nash out.

Wrong. I said for him to get FULL credit, he needs to do one of the three, Why? Because of NSB calling the guy P4P! A P4P fighter should be able to do any of the three against a guy in Shawn Porter! You guys are just mad because now he's fighting someone who actually has a chance to beat him. That's cool. Let him prove to me that he truly is a P4P level fighter by doing what P4P level fighters do. If he can't, he's just another fighter. Period. Done. who's mad? Certainly not me. I've wanted to see him fight a top welter since he moved up. Unfortunately until now, The PBC crew of Spence, Porter, Garcia, and Thurman all preferred to fight each other instead of taking on Bud. So I'm thrilled to see him finally get one of those guys.....

Blowout = shutout. IF you win more than 9 rounds, that's a blowout. Or a shutout. Period. Oh, weird. I had no idea. I just assumed a shut out is when you win every single round without getting dropped on your ass. Carry on.

ok great, get this fight done already been long enough. porter isnt that good ,loses all his big fights, this will be the same except he will get KO brutally

Both Crawford and Porter will be the same age come fight night but if anyone is “older” in boxing years it would have to be Porter as he’s had the more gruelling fights and he’s fought bigger guys, at a higher level throughout his career. This is a great match up!

Spence was never called #1 OR #2, or even #10 P4P by NSB. Not once. In fact, at one point NSB swore that Chris Algieri would outbox him. That's the difference - and why I kept telling you people to STOP calling Crawford that. You're creating too much expectation on him that he hasn't been able to prove. Well, now's his chance. A P4P fighter should be able to do BETTER than a non-P4P fighter. Else that P4P fighter was never a P4P fighter. But I know NSB is not going to admit they were wrong about the guy. now you are moving the goalposts. This conversation was not about P4P (which is entirely opinion anyways). Your post specifically said that to get ANY credit for a win over Porter, Crawford had to KO him or at the very least pitch a shutout. Otherwise the win is meaningless. That was the essence of your post. Had nothing to do with P4P......

"At The End Of The Day", it was an 11-1 BLOWOUT. To quote Floyd: "...and now you want fight Shawn Porter again...why? You lost 11 rounds, you only won the 12th round!" Which even Manny Pacquiao was unable to do to that same Broner. Chino couldn't do it, Vargas couldn't do it, DeMarco couldn't do it, Mikey couldn't do it. So you don't want to call it a shut-out anymore? Going by the book, the scores were 114-112, 115-111, and 118-108 If you add up the official judge's scorecards that were awarded to Broner's opponents; Maidana (348), Garcia (349), and Pacquiao (349) all had more rounds in their favor to Porter (347). On top of that, none of those guys (or Vargas for that matter) were decked by Broner. I'm not sure why you're trying to hype up Porter so much, or Broner for that matter????

Yeah, didn't he say that Porter would duck out? lol now that idiot trying to say "I'll wait till all the details are out" had no problem spamming the forum but now when it's something he doesn't want, "I'll wait"

the only fighter to pitch a complete shutout against Adrien Broner - something even Manny couldn't do. You mean the Broner that dropped Porter in the 12th round? Is that the Broner he pitched a shut-out against?
