Crawford had dude walking funny and having a mental breakdown in the ring from accumulated punishment even after a close fight on the cards. That's enough separation for me.

.


This. Fight was close on the cards cause Bud gave away the first half of the fight “downloading”
Once he picked the pace up the fight became real systematic and was going end in a brutal multiple knockdown KO if Kenny didn’t stop it

Kenny stopping that fight was all about him. About letting Shawn know he's in control still. Probably jealous of the opportunities Shawn is getting so showed him who is boss. I think he's always wanted to be like Swift's or Teo's dad and just could never get there.

It was still an impressive win but it would be like Canelo stopping Anthony Dirrell after a back and firth fight, not going to crown him off of that

On Saturday night, Terence "Bud" Crawford became the first fighter to stop "Showtime" Shawn Porter. The end came in the 10th round, as Crawford retained his WBO welterweight world title in front of a sold-out crowd of 11,568 at Michelob ULTRA Arena at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas.

Crawford (38-0, 29 KOs) made the fifth defense of the title he won in June 2018 and was presented with the stiffest test of his illustrious career. Porter (31-4-1, 17 KOs), who fought every elite welterweight of this era, made things uncomfortable on the inside.

Porter led 48-47 on all three scorecards after five rounds, but Crawford took control in the second half of the fight. After a dominant ninth round, Crawford scored a pair of knockdowns, and Porter's trainer and father, Kenny Porter, stopped the fight.

In the aftermath of the stoppage, Porter took no issue with his father's decision and gave high praise to Crawford.

Porter has been in the ring with a who's who of top fighters at welterweight - like Errol Spence, Keith Thurman, Yordenis Ugas, Danny Garcia, Kell Brook, Paulie Malignaggi, Andre Berto and Adrien Broner.

But, after being in the ring with Crawford, he tabbed the Omaha-native as the best fighter he had ever faced in the ring.

“He’s doing what he know he needs to do. My timing was off and he wouldn’t allow me to get my rhythm,” Porter said. “He’s the best out of everybody I have been in the ring with. He was on point A to Z and he was that good that I would want to do it again. He’s got it, inside and outside the ring.”

Nah he been talkin about the weight of this fight for ages
How his legacy wont be what he thought it should be if he loses out to top level competition again.
Think this just cemented for him that there is a level he just cant reach and he will only degrade further.
It an emotional decision right after a fight
And its not like he was washed in any of his big fights
He had a chance in all those fights

Bradley coudlnt even hide his bias for Crawford. He was straight up dikk eating him the entire time and made listening to the commentary unbearable :scust:

when Crawford fights for pbc next year he will be throwing shade at him because bob told him to.
