Comments Thread For: Shawn Porter Expects To Fight The Winner of Spence-Garcia

[Mister Wolf]

Ok, thanks. So, if that's the case, and IBF mandatory is next, there's that fight, followed by, potentially, a Porter rematch and Pacquiao/WBA unification.
Sounds like No Pay Cut Crawford got a lot of waiting to do . . . .

Pretty much. Only difference is he won't be waiting around broke like alot of his peers.

you mean they'll have no choice but to fight Spence. Pacquiao wants no part of him and T. Duckford with his A-side bat **** is a idiot.

I know what you mean, but I just don't see a scenario where Spence fights Porter, without losing the IBF belt! I also feel that Porter owes Ugas a rematch! So, Shawn Porter, Ugas or Crawford! MAN UP!

I get the feeling Spence/Crawford will never materialize.

Too many excuses to use from both sides. We have what? 6-8 legit top guys at 147. This is some serious rock, paper, scissors.

Porter is ranked #1 by the WBO.

I want to see him demand the title shot and force Crawford to either accept or vacate his belt.

I get the strange feeling Spence and Crawford don't want to risk fighting Porter and rather put that marination to the side and make the mega fight instead of a war with Porter.

After Porters unimpressive snooze-fest against that obscure European...don’t think Spence or Bud r too concerned about facing him! Only concern would b getting cut by Porters big head!!

Lmao.... Good point but if u think about Porter fights to his opposition. He lost to Ugas then came and gave Spence his hardest fight.

Btw I don't think they scared of nothing but I think their teams acsess risk/reward especially Crawford who would be more hurt from a loss than Spence

[Bronx23]

I’m so tired of everyone body on the “Bud needs to fight Porter” train

Porter has to WANT to fight Bud too.

Neither of them has shown a real serious interest in fighting. Stop bringing up this fight until one of them actually calls the other out.

Knowing the WBC, Spence or Danny will become franchise champion, Porter will fight someone else for the vacant belt

Kavaliauskas seems to be the only top 10 guy asking for a Crawford fight.

You hear others mention Crawford, but quickly move on to calling out other guys without even sending an offer or trying to negotiate a deal. They only mention Crawford cause it looks bad not to do so, but the risk seems to be to high for them. Bud doesn't care about all the talk, he lets them talk and laughs at the inconsistencies, flip flopping and obvious contradictions in their statements.

Lots say Crawford hasn't faced anyone etc. like he's an easy mark, but the fighters they support never step up to the plate.

Anyways boxing has always had this problem. People want to protect their investment and maximize the profit even if it hurts the sport. We're stuck with a business model that yields the same results and problems with each new generation. DAZN, PBC & Golden boy were supposed to be solutions, but money changes people!

Remember hoe the UFC was about the best facing the best, but that changed when the money started pouring in and it's not about putting people in seats. Hype job with lots of online followers will get the shot before the worthy contender that paid his dues.

Shawn I have the utmost respect for you as a fighter. Your resume shows your character. In keeping with that character that you've always shown, be the 1st of the big names from PBC to give Bud Crawford a fight, or to give a shot to the young talented challenger from Philly that no one else even wants to mention- Boot Ennis. Be the 1st, because that's the kind of guy you are
