Shawn Porter will beat the DOG SH/T out of Crawford (the dog sh/t)

[joesaiditstrue]

I think Porter would get stopped by Bud

[El_Mero]

He's not putting Porter (or any of the top 147lbers) out with one shot, and he's hittable (very much so over the first 4-5 rounds of a fight, a bit less so after).

Brook, Thurman and Spence are massive for the weight, and Danny Garcia is big for the weight, and none of them could keep Porter off with any great consistency.

What chance do you give Crawford, a guy who's clearly small for the weight?

How many of those hw's are putting ANY other web's down with 1 punch? Crawford has a great chance at beating them all as his ring iq is pretty damn good. I've seen all those ww's get lit up. At this point I give Crawford a 50/50 chance of beating them all. I dont think any current ww is the best of the bunch, the problem is none of the pbc guys want to prove it with Crawford, not the other way around

Sure that's your opinion and you entitled to it but to say that Crawford is now only the 5th best fighter in the WW division because of his last performance reeks of people flip-flopping and going overboard with their assessment. There were no threads like this prior to his last fight.

Tell 'em!

I wonder where they ranked Porter after the Ugas fight (that he arguably lost imo)?

Yeah man and good example. Nobody gave Porter a chance against Spence, the general consensus was that he was going to get battered and stopped in the mid rounds. Now he is suddenly a world beater again (no disrespect to Porter here). Some boxing fans are very fickle

[Sweet Scions]

Typical fans... Guy gets hit but stops game opponent with great amateur background n undefeated now he is the #5 WW and gets stops buy a guy who couldnt stop less skilled opponents.

Makes perfect sense

Also, E X P O S E D lol~

How could i forget the magic word lol

I don't think I would put money down on Porter to win, because Bud geeze, but I think Porter would definitely stretch him. And for sure it'd be a fight worth watching, especially after seeing Bud willing to throw down in that last fight. "Mean Machine" was a skirmish - Porter would be a war.

Odd that you've still coupled Spence and Crawford, but whatever

You don’t think they’re on the same level?

And like I said, the reason is because NSB only cares about the 'eye test'. Their eyeballs saw Crawford eat beautiful two-piece combos off of traps, eat flush right crosses, get dropped even if not called, majority of people felt it should have been. So to them, he failed the 'eye test' because it wasn't a whitewash like Horn. Plus nobody rated Kavaliauskas going into this. We've seen it time and again.

Im sorry but after Bud's last fight i got shawn smoking him. his chin was getting tapped a bit too much and his knees kept buckling. Shawn too much of a dog for him.

Porter has three losses. Porter is not hard to hit and gets hit a lot. Crawford is faster and hits harder than Porter in my opinion. Crawford has been KOing everyone he fights recently while Porter isn't knocking knocking guys down. Porter is a good tough fighter who throws lots of punches and always attacks. But he comes up a little short against the very best and Crawford is a little too good for him.
