I'd be shocked if Crawford stopped Porter, but Porter has become battle worn in tough, 12 round fights against Brook, Thurman, Garcia, Ugas, and Spence. You can make the argument that Porter lost his last three fights in a row.
Crawford easily became undisputed at 140, after stopping 7 of his 8 opponents at that weight. He has stopped all 4 of his opponents at 147, three of which were undefeated.
If they fight next, it would probably be Crawford's toughest fight of his career so far, but I still see him winning.
Let's not forget Broner knocking Porter down in the 12th, though it was a flash KD and mostly due to exhaustion. Porter is not a mindless brawler, but he relies heavily on his punch resistance. I just don't see Porter making it out of a Crawford fight without getting stunned a few times.
