I would 100% pick porter if he wasn't so inactive. Now that he fights once a year he can happily take a competitive beating for his yearly wage. He won't rock the boat. He might make Crawford look tough and and help him in his A side quest against Spence.

I'm not going to go as far as to predict that he'll win but honestly if anyone has the style necessary to cause Crawford problems it's probably Porter. I know Crawford always adapts to his opponent but Porter might be able to make it torrid enough early on to rack up a big advantage or maybe even a stoppage if he gets lucky - I'm not saying Crawford has a glass chin or anything but he doesn't look as solid as many other welterweights do.
Still picking Crawford to win on the whole but it wouldn't shock me to my core if Porter won. I know Porter has been beaten several times but nobody ever beats him easily and I suspect Crawford won't either. That's why it's a good fight people want to watch.
