    You were. Because Crawford was choosing to avoid Porter for lesser fare like Kell Brook.

    But the China Virus has obviously changed everything. I doubt there will be many big fights made for a while.

      great card Bronx wish this covd stuff would go away wish boxing would come back. Wish GRJ would whip stevenson. just dont like the kid from the video of him and buddy beating up a guy and two women.

        Crawford -Porter would be a good fight, but i think Crawford stops him arounhd 9, Just too sharp and i remember Broner putting him down with a well timed counter.

          Porter can wear his football gear into the ring to let Crawford know what he’ll be up against.

          Boxing heads are so desperate for a fight that I don’t see how this fight would be an anticlimactic event with a decent (ANY!) undercard!

          Things are so bad, I’d “pay” to see Hamed -vs- Barrera 2, with Tyson -vs- any successful plumber...

          Then I’d love to see if Crawford can dissect the wildness of Porter.

          Crawford is such a classic boxer, that I’d really like to see if Porter can disrupt Crawford’s calm switch up flow.

            I hear you but Porter has fought 7 times in the past 5 years. He’s 32. He’ll make more $ fighting Crawford than anyone else - Spence won’t fight him again, nobody wants to see Porter fight Garcia or Thurman again and the prize if he beats Crawford is huge. Porter should try to get that fight. His style could cause Bud some problems too.
            Which is why he probably wants that fight when it's earning potential isn't hampered by the pandemic. I agree with what you say; I don't think Porter is saying he doesn't want the fight but he's saying he doesn't want the fight in a setting where his financial gain is diminished.

AL and the PBC need to keep fulfilling network contracts that he guaranteed content and that is all he is concerned with.
              You would accused of being a racist for pointing this out. Even though we know that's what he is doing, just because he is silent and doesnt talk, doesn;t mean he isn't a dodgy character. You would soon see the usual "No fighter has complain yet" brigade on your back.

                  He definitely needs to grow up! Have you noticed he never mentions GRJ? He only talks about Warrington! I like the "kid" and I wish him luck, however that's seems strange, not to be interested in fighting GRJ!

                    Me too! $100 dollars would be a discount considering we've been giving $80 for 1 name fight and a bunch of has been or have nots.

                      Then they say "The PPV model isn't working." Of course it won't work if we get that crap!
