Comments Thread For: Crawford: I Feel Like They Using Porter As Steppingstone, Comparing Me And Errol's Performances Against Him

Showtime ain’t laying down for no kunt, he’s fackin tough as nails.
shawn porter wins this and if not, gives Crawford the toughest test at the very least.
im expecting Shawn to run at him for the duration, give him no time to compose or think.

Make up your dam mind don’t try and have it both ways; will Porter win or not? This isn’t that hard, so bet you Crawford wins easy! Did I say EASY

A close win against an élite is a very good thing to Crawford

Yeah - as FINALLY a win against someone of quality.

But that's not enough for P4P.

He's coming from behind.

He meant to say measuring stick not stepping stone lol

Thurman Porter and Spence and Ugas he won’t beat all 4 would be lucky to go 50/50 in these fights. Add in boots and ortiz jr if he wins 3 of those fights I’d put him in the HOF

That is a serious "who is freaking who" list there. Not sure any of those names fight each other, much less a mid-30's Crawford.

Porter had draw-ish fights against Spence, Thurman, Garcia and Ugas so this fight is very good for a comparison to those PBC fighters.

Damn! Such a bland personality! While he's a sweet guy and could fight but yet he still lacks charisma. There is absolutely no buzz about him at all.

It’s also why he’s hated on. Not everyone has charisma, and it’s why ‘promoters are hired’ and need to promote with only a promotional mindset. You really can’t consider Arum his promoter after all the negatives he’s said about Bud.

Crawford’s a modest unassuming family man that draws attention to himself only to occasionally remind the public & naysayers of his accomplishments.

If Crawford doesn’t speak of himself in glowing terms - who will? - who’s gonna listen to his wife & kids?? His subdued self promotion is also because Arum and the naysayers are pretty much on the same page….jus my thoughts….

Yes, I agree. While in front of the cameras, I know that he comes across as this lovely man and all but what I've heard in private is that he is a totally different person. They tell me that he is keyboard warrior. I would like for the public to see more of that side of Terence Crawford than the one we see in public; The easygoing, quiet, softspoken version.

obviously, Crawford won and goes up a notch but I did favour porter (read the post again).
