I know of a website or two where you can watch all and any of the best live sport, just have data.

Porter-Crawford is a 100% going to be a fight of the year Contender . If your a boxing fan and you don't buy this fight .. are you really a fan? Especially if it's at $64.99 or less . Hope it does at least 250k buys and the best can get incentivized to fight the best more often

what happens if Crawford beats Porter? Everyone will say "oh it was only Porter" when they going to give this dude a legacy opponent? The guy whoops Postals ass for all the belts and he still doesn't get the rep. Arum must be the only guy on the planet who doesn't wanna see Crawford vs Spence.

If he beats him clean - meaning, more decisively than Spence and with no controversy - I'll gladly call for a Spence fight, although with Spence injured, it'll probably fall back to Ugas. Which would still be good because Ugas beat Crawford in the amateurs, which helps sell the fight, plus Ugas is riding on a high AND I think his style would also trouble Crawford a bit, based on how he performed against Manny AND Porter. I'd also be okay with Crawford fighting Vergil Ortiz for a WBA eliminator.


If he only eeks out a close win, I'll acknowledge the win and call for a Keef fight next. Keef was the one fighter BoMac was afraid of, so that sells it, but Crawford has decently good body work (minus his low blow tendencies) so I see that as a 50-50 fight.

Not according to PBC fans who mocked Arum when he suggested this wasn’t a PPV fight months ago.

Spence barely beat Porter.

Why does Crawford have to destroy Porter to earn a shot at Errol Spence?

Bob Arum hopes skeptical boxing fans understand that pay-per-view is the only economic model that would've worked while putting together the Terence Crawford-Shawn Porter fight.

I will pay to see this fight. I’m curious to see how Porter approaches Crawford. I think it’s going to play different than we think.

Your new sig pick doesn’t make sense. Crawford is fighting Porter, he’s not watching him play with other fighters.

Porter beats Crawford (just like most think he beat Spence)….You can never write Crawford off.

Well it appears it will be on PPV so you know what that means……FIGHT PARTY! I can either get a caterer or I can do the grilling and smoking myself with a mix of Mexican cervezas, British ales, and ta’kill’ya
