    Who here thought Crawford would stop Porter?

    I keep hearing people saying how Porter was washed up or just didn't have the desire anymore, downplaying Crawford's win. But who here thought that Crawford would actually stop him?

    I thought it was possible. Was torn between Crawford UD or late stoppage.

    Crawford has exceptional timing and Porter is wildly aggressive at times which leaves openings and as wee seen in round 10 Crawford was able to exploit that.

    Porter wasn’t washed or shot, that’s just nonsense from haters, fanboys etc. Porter was still undoubtedly a top 5 Welterweight and based on his performance in the fight I saw no obvious signs of decline.

        Porter was always a case of when, not if he would get koed

          I thought it would be a tuff fight and I saw Crawford having a hard time at the beginning. The fact that Porter retired says he was done before the fight. I saw a Porter who gave up more than anything. Also, I remember hearing Porters cohosts talking about Porter not training like he normally does prior to the fight. That says something about his mentality. Crawford is still a top talent but if he would of fought Porter 3 years prior. It would of been a far more difficult fight.

            I figured Terence would win a decision in a tough fight. I was rooting for Shawn doe!

              I did as I thought Porter was there for a sharpshooter, and I had a gut feeling Porter slipped a peg after Errol that was a gruelling fight.

                Porter's dad did all the "stopping"

                  porter's not really a great fighter.

                  crawford is already in his mid 30s and he has yet to step foot inside a ring vs a bona fide all time great hall of fame level opponent....

                    I thought he would. I think he stops Spence too.
