    Coming from a Crawford P4P believer.

    Porter is not a talker, he's real, he's smart and his style is problematic for Crawford.

      They won't give Ugas a fight unless its necessary. He's too high risk a fighter for low reward.

        Hate him or love him but u need to stop with the duckford nonsense and call the champ by his name. Crawford has earned enough respect. Ur beginning to look like a scorned woman.

          Because if he beats Ugas people would say the same thing "He hasn't beaten anyone at 147"

              Porter is doing a lot of talking in the media, but all he really needs to do to get the fight is to have the WBO enforce the mandatory shot. Crawford will be stripped if he doesn't take the fight. Until Porter demands his shot from the WBO, this is all just talk.

                WBO has to order it - and they refuse to order Top Rank fighters (imagine that).

                Joshua got repeatedly threatened and ordered to take the fight with Usyk, even despite Usyk barely getting past Chisora.

                Crawford? It's been a year since his last mandatory. Not a peep from the WBO. They're as grimy as they come.

                  Porter does start fast and ends fast. Porter only knows how to fight one way and at one speed. He is relentless but he does not adjust from his game plan nor is he text book. His punches are wild compared to Crawford. It would be interesting to see how Crawford does with that type of pressure from someone who does not go down easy. Crawford no doubt would be able to adjust and keep Porter honest at times but does he have the power to hold him off all night?

                    If Pacquiao falls through for Spence & Crawford, Both guys need to fight eachother NEXT. Or at least go into negotiations. Porter only comes into the discussion for me after that. We need to see how Pacquiao moves.

                    If Pacquiao wants a tune-up we’ll see who the duck is for real. If Spence adds another name to his list...

                      Who else is sick and tired of this romance between Porter & Bud. Be loving friends later on after you retire. That’s what Leonard did with Tommy and Duran, they love each other today but wanted to kill each other in the ring. Pryor became friends with Alexis, damn near killed each other. Bernard & Oscar. The list goes on and on. Stop it and fight already!
