Comments Thread For: Crawford's Take On Porter Fight: I Didn't Think It Was Close At All; Was Doing What I Wanted

[1hourRun]

What a special talent TBC is :

the mediocre level of boxing knowledge on this forum is what keeps bring me back, its comical. 'BUD' did it all vs. 'Showtime' Shawn Porter, outside-inside, footwork, counter-punching, walking a man down ; defense to offense through various techniques ; all done when the moment was right. I seen a calculated methodical breakdown, whilst the bums on NSB were only counting rounds, hoping that the fight went the distance to have a argument that Terence Crawford is not the best welterweight and P4P #1.

What a pleasure it is to study your superb skills TBC

Haha yeah okay.
you got the win. But let’s not try and rewrite the fight.

doing what he wanted? i doubt he planned on getting hit as much as he did. porter landed cleanly a pretty lot

My exact thoughts. He must have planned losing a bunch of rounds and being frustrated. Crawford lacks humility while Porter is a humble sportsman.

I definitely thought Porter was in the fight till that point. Still think Crawford was up but not shut out by any means. Great fight.

Crawford need to stop being scared and fight Jaron Ennis ! He scared to even mention his name

Just another comic

Man I could only give Porter 3 rounds up until the stoppage Bud was landing cleaner better punches i ain't no judge though but it seemed to me like Bud was in control from the second onwards. Great fight and great performance.

I think what Bud trying to say is he was in control, not getting flustered by anything Porter did. He kept his cool, didn't panic, saw pretty much everything coming. He knew Porter was burning a lot of fuel, getting frustrated, and was just a matter of time before he got to him. Crawford still looked pretty fresh at the end of the fight.

No I think he said what he was trying to say, he did what he wanted. Bud fought at the distance he preferred, at a tempo he’s accustomed to. It was all him no need to paraphrase

[TheUptownKid]

I’m getting a bit of Wilder vibes from him. His power has really bailed him out in his last two fights. A lot of people had Brook up in their scorecards before the stoppage, same can be said for Porter before the 10th round.

Nope. He’s a counter puncher first of all and wilder is not. Secondly he works from accumulation more than one punch ko power. Third he’s a master boxer. They’re not reminiscent of each other besides the fact that they’re both black.

Champions don't call out contenders, it's the other way around. Don't mistake me, I rate Boots highly, but he's not ready for Crawford. Give him 2 more fights against top 10 opponents though, if he comes through that and Bud is a year or two older, then that's the fight I'd like to see most at WW.
