    Or they’re friends and they’ve both said on multiple occasions that they aren’t interested in fighting each other. Notice how they always call out everyone else except each other.

    Neither has completely ruled it out and both have alluded to doing it.

    I’ve noticed that prior to Spence taking a he could handle from Porter. Nobody was asking for that fight. Now it seems as if they’re trying to hide Spence behind Porter as if Bud HAS TO fight him in order to get the Spence fight

      Well there's Manny Pacquiao the WBA welterweight titleholder and also Keith Thurman who've just recently called him out but Crawford turned him down. So other than Erroll Spence who else does he wants to fight; Another bum fight like the very game but limited kid who was in there in the ring with Shawn Porter last night Sebastian Formella?

        I’m not convinced Porter gets the winner. Dude was champion when he fought Spence and wasn’t given the option for an immediate rematch but Spence was. Porter to me seems to get treated like the stepchild of the elite WWs at PBC.

        I think the plan is for Danny Spence winner to fight Pac for all 3 belts. Winner of that gets the Bud fight for undisputed but those 3 belts to Crawford’s 1 are gonna be used as leverage.

        TBH That’s all wishful thinking. The reality is Spence Danny winner will probably dic:k around with a weak voluntary or other weak mando. Porter will fight a bunch of voluntaries & Pac will be 43-44 by the time he faces Spence Danny or Bud

          Well we know Bud would take that Pac lotto ticket in heartbeat he couldn’t get it when they were with the same promoter, Pacs even older and on a different network with a rival promoter. I’d say chances are even slimmer.

          We don’t know what was offered by team Thurman so I can’t say anything about it. He called out Danny and sent a career high $4mill offer and Danny didn’t want it. He’s already been calling for the Spence fight so... yea. This is not a 1 sided thing

            Bronx, Why does Porter make all this effort to become a mandatory so he can force Spence into a rematch or get stripped situation, but he wont make the same kind of effort to become Crawford's mandatory? What's the difference? Spence wont budge on paying Porter no more than the 25% he is entitled to if they rematch so its not like it would be Lucrative for Porter.

He’s already been calling for the Spwas talking about now. He can't fight Danny Garcia at the moment because he is fighting Erroll Spence in November.

                  Well as for right now there doesn’t seem to be any realistic top ww clash for Bud. Like I said before he’s called all these guys out in the past none of them have shown any interest in fighting him.

                  As previously stated No one knows what was offered from Thurman and the only reason I could see Bud turning that down is financial. Nobody is running from Keith “Mr Glass” Thurman especially after his showings against Lopez & Pac.

                  We can sit here all day and say Bud should fight this guy or that guy but the reality is that it’s a two way street. Both guys have to want it. And nobody has been hounding Bud for a fight the way he’s been hounding everyone else

                    I think Porter just does what he’s told to do even if it means being jerked in the process. He said him self he wasn’t given the choice of when to fight Spence, he said he was told when Spence would be next.

                    He just seems to always get treated as the Bside in every big fight even as the champ. Even though he’s got the best resume at 47 aside from Pac & shown they eagerness to fight any and everyone. They say he doesn’t sell tickets yet every big fight he’s in does well. It takes two to tango.

                      If he had power with his work rate he would be unstoppable.

                      I think that’s one reason why he hasn’t moved up yet. He’s a good B+ fighter. He reached his peak.
