    If Crawford beat Porter CLEANLY (i.e. no low blows, no holding and hitting, etc), CLEARLY (i.e. not a debatable draw) and without trigger ref assistance, it would instantly warrant 50/50 for Spence.

    Why?

    Because Porter has never been beaten with all three of the above being true.

    Ugas: could have been a draw

    Thurman: could have been a draw

    Spence: could have been a draw (had he not gotten dropped)

    Brook: excessive holding


    If Crawford did to PRIME Porter what he just did to washed Kell Brook, he's instantly in the conversation. Period.

    Hell, if Crawford stopped Porter, even if it took 11 rounds to do it, he's still in the conversation.
    I think the version of Porter that fought Spence is better than the version Brook fought. Just my opinion and there was mild sarcasm in the post when I said that I just see Crawford getting credit for anything on here. He may not have fought Spence yet but that seems to be the only fight anybody would give him credit. I'd LOVE to see that fight but it takes 2 to sign the contract we cant just blame Crawford. I blame Arum and Haymon more than anybody.

      It IS a better version of Porter. Which is why, if Crawford were to get over his demons and actually fight AND clearly, decisively beat Porter better than anyone has, how it can not elevate him?

      Because him saying that Porter is the one guy he refuses to fight sounds like a duck. Especially given, as you said, this is the best Shawn Porter has ever been.

      I don't blame Arum and I don't blame Haymon. I blame BoMac, as I outlined in my other thread.

        So what happens when Pacquiao announces that he is fighting Mikey Garcia instead?

        Seems like he holding out hope on the Qatar thing if that is even real but if that doesn't work then what? Crawford himself seems just confused with absolutely no type of direction for his own career

          Qatar.

          Wasn't there supposed to be a Pac/Khan fight in Qatar?

          We saw what happened there.

          Smoke and mirrors.

            I guess he actually believes Arum when he says he been negotiating with Pacquiao while Pacquiao Manager Sean Gibbons been on Twitter Laughing at it and calls it complete BS

                Yes, I'm not faulting Crawford for it, he's a prizefighter and it's obvious $$$ more important to him than this "legacy" people keep ****ing on about!

                  This Welterweight Class will go down as mediocre.....the whole lot of them starting with the Protecting Boxing Cowards....these little turds just refuse to unify 47

                    Pac vs Crawford 147

                    Lopez vs M. Garcia 140

                    This is worth the PPV. I Know it's wishful thinking though.
