Comments Thread For: Porter: Still Light In That Tunnel For Those Who Want Me To Fight Crawford

[Combat Talk Radio]

An 8 yo fight that wrote the textbook on how to beat him. Rewatch the diaz fight and the brook fight.

If u think Crawford cant do what Brook and an old LW can do than I really dont know what to say.

Stop ducking the question bro.

Of the two, who has the better resume of the last three years (the period that matters) ?

Well, well. That ladies and gentlemen is a "call out" by Porter ... to a guy who is a friend but still an opponent in the same business - boxing. That's as respectable a call-out as Porter could make it. So no more "Porter don't want it" nonsense.

As far as Bud Crawford fighting Kell Brook ... Porter at this time is the better opponent. No one knows what Brook can bring at WW anymore, or even if he can be his old self at that weight (sad for Brook). If Brook could show up at that weight, and be his old self, Crawford might be in trouble. That's a lot of if's though.

Porter is still a force at welterweight, particularly when motivated by fear of a loss, as he was vs. Spence. If the Porter that fought Spence shows up, it will be lights out Bud. If the same Porter that fought Ugas shows up, Crawford will win. It's really that simple.

For Crawford (who I like and who may be the best WW one day), like it or not, he is still very unproven at WW. The best thing he could do for his WW career is get in there and win a fight vs Porter.

Porter vs Crawford

That fight will not happen so don't hold your breath. Crawford will not agree to it because he knows he can not handle the pressure and the heat that Porter consistently brings. Crawford and his team talk a real good game.

Crawford.

U dont get resume points for losses. The DSG fight is a gold star for Porter BUT many people including myself thought Ugas beat him.

Crawford knocked out his last 4 and 3 were undefeated. But i can scratch off Khan, thats like beating beating granados.

Wait a minute. Just wait a minute.

So you're saying - you rate a guy who gets in and sparks B and C levels over a guy who gets in there and damn near beats A-levels every time.

That's what you're saying? Here in front of everyone? I just want to make sure it's on record.

Because you realize why Crawford is undefeated and Porter is not, right?

Who has Crawford beat that can beat Brook?

So if the Crawford fight happens for Porter does he expect it to be aired at Fox/Showtime?

I'm sold on Porter. This man is one of the classiest boxers in the whole sports scene. Give this man a chance to outwork Pacquiao or beat the hell out of brook.

I'm also a big fan of Porter. He's a throwback fighter with his style and tenacity and he never backs down from a challenge.
To be fair, he already fought Brook and lost but that was pre GGG.
