      I think he should take it. Crawford wants the belts, he wants to fight the champions but the PBC wont do it but atleast they are now prepared to throw him 1 scrap from behind their moat and wall. Its not for a belt and its a fighter who lost his last fight but it was a close loss and against a very good fighter. Porter is a known name in America who fights on the highest level. If Bud wants Spence how about doing a number on Porter, a number Spence struggled to do. It would put much more pressure on a unification with Spence or Pacquaio.

      In my opinion its not really the fight we want but Crawford hasnt got too many choices at the top right now, id take it. There is no point holding out for Spence or Pacquaio he isnt getting a fight with either of those right now. Porter is as good as anybody else.

        The only person to give Spence a tough fight up to this point is Porter. Belt or no belt I don’t see any downside fighting Porter.

          ... and if Crawford wins, then they will say that Brook, Thurman, and Spence already beat Porter... this is how it goes...
          People can also say Porter arguably beat them as well or at least it was a real close fight. If Crawford beats Porter convincingly, trust me, it will land a huge statement towards the whole PBC WW roster. Crawford's performance will be compared to Spence, Thurman and Garcia's. Being the 1st one to beat Porter convincingly will be a big thing

            neither Spence or Thurman managed to beat Porter without controversy. both of those fights could've went the other way. maybe Crawford can do it better... why not try? name a win on Bud's resume better than a potential W against Porter... I'll wait.

              Or at least get the ball rolling ffs
              It’s gotta be better than what he’s doing now
              And really he gonna look like cry wolf now that he’s actually refusing the fight

              You both have embraced the truth.

                Yeah makes no sense to get what would be the best name on your resume. Also a guy who hasn't been blown out in any of those championship fights but has made them all close and competitive, and is also a former champion himself. You're right, that makes no sense at all

                      There's just no other choice for TC at this point doe.
                      The others are peppered with excuses not to fight Bud.
                      Nothing can be done about it. It is what it is.

                      I'd prefer Thurman, but nobody knows what this guy wants next.
                      Thurman would present TC all kinds of problems in the ring.
