Crawford would still rule 140 if he wanted to without question imho. But I have always predicted Bud would be in his mid 30s by the time he faced the best wws & hes now 32 & still hasn't & has looked above average at ww but far from truly a step above any of the elite wws.
I personally think Porter might drop Bud & would give him a great chance to win.
( But I've always been among the only very few that rates Porter highly & said he would be a pickem fight with anyone at ww just because his amazing ability to stifle opponent's rather than him showing great offense of his own per se)
Crawford's schtick is the same as every top rank fighters who don't regularly fight the cream of the crop: to claim they are p4p #1 off eyetest & that they're being ducked & that that's why they should be ranked higher than fighters actually facing the cream of the crop (regardless of excuses &" reasons",actions are all that should make p4p)
Bottom line is that I would think fighting a popular brit would be preferable to unknown journeyman & it would be more prestigious of a win. And if I think porter is a pickem vs bud then it shows I think Bud would struggle to say the least vs anyone elite at ww but he on paper should win vs 90% just not by ko. Basically I think bud would be in 50/50 fights vs the elite like loma doing at 135
