Comments Thread For: Porter Views Crawford Fight As Biggest Of His Career: I Don't Think The World Can Get Any More Excited

You cant fake the kind of authenticity, fairness, thoughtfulness and intelligence that Shawn Porter brings to Boxing, it is who he is and he brings it wherever he goes. On top of that he's humble and that's mind blowing in the age of loud, self promoting media mouth pieces.

If you can't love and admire Shawn Porter you should probably stop and take inventory of yourself.

Does PBC even have any 147 prospects? Garcia, Porter, those two aren’t exciting names anymore. Porter is lucky to have Crawford as a dance partner, otherwise he and Garcia really should be the PBC gatekeepers at their weight.

Shawn Porter should be a full time commentator.

Bob Arum On Crawford Vs. Porter: ‘Who’s Going To Pay For It?’

May 25, 2021 by Albert Craine

“We could make a big fight vs Porter, but who’s going to pay for it?” said Arum to The Athletic.

“There’s a limit to what I can get out of ESPN. And on PPV… Crawford’s never done anything on PPV. Nothing against him. It is what it is.”

Bob Arum Wants Terence Crawford Vs. Shawn Porter In November On Pay-Per-View

July 26, 2021 l 1 Comment l by Rob Smith

Top Rank promoter Bob Arum says the WBO-ordered fight between 147-lb champion Terence Crawford and challenger Shawn Porter will be taking place in November on pay-per-view.

Arum says it WON’T go to a purse bid, which means he’s going to go all out to get the Crawford-Porter match negotiated to avoid what happened recently with the Teofimo Lopez vs. George Kambosos Jr clash.

A lot has changed between May 25th, and July 26th! Lol! Classic Bob..."Yesterday I was lying, but today I'm telling the truth!"

My thoughts exactly. If Bob doesn't pay enough someone else will and frankly I hope they do. Terrance Crawford needs to get out from under Bob's control....it's his time.

Porter's excited, not so much the rest of us. But he's a good honest fighter, gives it his all, and seems like a nice guy.

Nobody will EVER get excited about your style, Mr. Porter. Fight between you and Bud is meh.

Porter could give Crawford trouble--he is strong with good pressure. Crawford will pick his shots but will be crowded all night. Good fight if it is made!

Those are my exact thoughts. Well said.

Speak for yourself.

The excitement of this fight is to see whether your #1 P4P is what he says he is. Can he do any better against Porter than anyone else has?
