MIA to ATL
Bud finally gonna show these welters how you dispose of an average boxer like Shawn porter. The fact that shawn gave all these pbc guys such tough fights is disgusting:scust:....guarantee Shawn won't be as reckless as he was with Errol. If he fights like that he's getting stopped.

If CBD does that I will re-evaluate my position on the outcome of Spence vs Crawford. I don’t think you understand how difficult a fight Porter is for anyone at 147.

He’s not an average boxer, he has above average boxing skills, and not a lot of power. But he extremely busy, goes in and out of range quick, makes it difficult to lock down the timing and keep him off you if you’re trying to stay outside and use the advantage of having the “better boxing skills”. He forces you into a dog fight. CBD got dog in him but we’ll see if he can withstand that type of fight for 12 rounds. Can’t see Porter getting stopped by him.

Top Rank is hilarious, lol @ this opponent and trying to put this in ATL is comedy



Before this action from the WBO, Crawford, 33, was offered a fight with rugged contender David Avanesyan, per sources, a bout that was being eyed for Oct. 23. Atlanta was a potential location

I actually predicted porter would give all them guys a tough fight. Even said he would give Spence the toughest fight of his life while most said Spence would destroy him. Cause I know Porter is hella awkward and has a great motor. But also cause I knew these other guys had weaknesses that Porter would be able to exploit.

I was confident in those predictions and I'm just as confident in saying bud will give Porter the most decisive loss of his career. And possibly stop him if he chooses to fight as reckless as he did Spence. But I think porter will come out more subdued and take his time. Stylistically he knows bud is a whole different animal. He has much quicker feet than spence. More one punch power. And better hand speed. This is just a bad style matchup for Shawn. I still think he'll have his moments because he's still very awkward and physically strong. But it won't take long for Crawford to start timing all that funky shyt and hitting him with clean counters. Porter is gonna be gunshy by the mid rounds. I see Crawford putting on a show and cruising to a lopsided UD or late stoppage if porter gets desperate. This is gonna be the fight where bud shows he's just as great as everybody claims.

Bob and wbos plan to get the belt off bud before he leaves to pbc? Bob convinces bud to drop the belt somehow.

Suspicious how wbo is all of a sudden making him fight someone with a pulse right before his contract is up

weird that they ordered it now when Shawn was asking for the fight months ago when he was ranked #1 by the WBO

If this is how Top Rank is going to do business then Bob should never utter another word about Bud marketing himself. This is getting ridiculous.

i have no interest in seeing Crawford fight a podcaster. He needs to take on real challenges. What about Jose Carlos Ramirez? They went back & forth. They’re both with top rank. It’s easy to make, and more importantly it’s a real fight. So what that he lost his last fight, you could say the same for this podcaster.

Why would I want to see a world class fighter against a podcaster ? :russ:

It don’t even make sense man. The guy just gets in the ring and wrestles and hugs like he’s in the wwe, which is his real calling. His own father is probably the biological father to his kid. He constantly gets outshined by his cohosts on his own podcast.

Terrance don’t need to waste the time.

If he wins, they’d just say he beat a full time podcaster more focused on his brand.


Porter took your woman huh....cuz this is some unbridled hate.
