[Boxing]: Terence Crawford vs Shawn Porter - Nov. 20

[ReiMomo]

Three-division and reigning WBO welterweight champ Terence Crawford (37-0, 28KOs) and former two-division titlist Shawn Porter (31-3-1, 17KOs) have agreed to terms for their highly anticipated title fight, which will take place November 20 atop an ESPN+ Pay-Per-View from Michelob ULTRA Arena in Las Vegas.

So we have another exciting fight in the welterweight division. Crawford will defend his belt against former champion Shawn Porter on November 20. This will be explosive as we all know how these two fighters, Porter gave Spence Jr a good fight when they clash two years ago and lost via split decision. He won against Ugas (who beat Manny Pacquiao recently), and also a W against Danny Garcia. His losses are against Keith Thurman and Kell Brook.

On the other hand, one of the best pound for pound, Terence Crawford, hasn't lost, beat Jeff Horn, (who beat Manny Pacquiao, but majority thinks it's a robbery), and won against Kell Brook.

So this is going to be a good fight in my opinion. I would say that Crawford has step up the plate here in fighting a hard nose fighter in Shawn Porter. I'm expecting a 12 full rounds of action packed boxing.

No odds yet.

November 20th is going to the day of boxing between Three-devision WBO welterweight Champ Crawford Vs Two-devision titlelist Porter. The purse was agreed to 60:40 (Crawford : Porter) instead of regular 80:20 so that Crawford gets $6 Million and Porter gets $4 Million. WBO has planned to livestream the match on their facebook page on 20th November. Eagerly awaiting to watch. A big fight between champions.

that's a handsome payout during this pandemic period. win or lose, they have their pockets full going home. bookies are heavily favouring crawford here. but upset can happen anytime. but it seems they are pretty confident giving odds for crawford at only 1.1x.
we may see another toe-to-toe fight in the boxing ring after this fury-wilder trilogy fight. at least the money of boxing fans are not wasted with boring and dull fights. we need explosive fights inside the ring so this boxing sports will keep afloat in the market.

It's always a handsome dividend when two of the best fighters are going to face each other. And maybe this is the main reason why suddenly Crawford goes out of his comfort zone to fight non-TR fighters for the first time in many years.

Remember that this is the minimum that they are going to get, there's still money to be made in the PPV and live gates a well.

Just to be fair with Crawford, he always wanted to fight and been calling them, including Errol Spence. And he even said that Spence duck him or, maybe there is a money issue.

So it's good that finally he will fight a non-TR fighter and hopefully we can still see him and Spence in the ring in the future. Or even a Thurman or Ugas fight might be good as well. And it's a winnable fight for Crawford that could cement him as the best welterweight of this generation.

If Crawford cannot beat Porter, then there's no reason for Crawford to call out Spence to fight him, and regarding Spence, I think we should let him relax to heal his injury, we have no idea yet on when he will be back in boxing, the operation was very sensitive, the doctor might advise him not to fight anymore.

What we see is what we get, thus far, this is the best match for Crawford for him to prove that he is not afraid of fighting anyone.

Maybe after this we will see a Thurman vs Crawford, this match-up would be nice I believe.

Not only nice but a great one, there's a saying that style makes a fight these two fighters are not afraid to engage always go for initiative and never hold back if these two fighters fight it will be a legacy fight because both fighters are undefeated, champions and always dominating, bettors will have a hard time who will have the edge.

I think Crawford would win against Thurman in my opinion. Yes, I agree style makes fight and the style of Thurman is tailor made for Crawford and I'm sensing a knock out could happen in favour of Crawford.

But let's see how Crawford will do against an offensive weapon like Shawn Porter.

This is very intriguing match because we haven't seen Crawford fought an aggressive type of fighter like Porter in the 147 lbs.

Crawford and Porter's match is approaching fast. It's almost a month from now. Despite not being the most awaited game because Crawford and Spence is actually the one that excites the people (which had a conflict due to splitting of cash prize), this match will still surely be entertaining to watch. The two boxers have a reputable records over the years and it will be no wonder that their game will be thrilling as well.

Although I think the game would be in favor of Crawford given his standing as of now. But I'm not underestimating Porter's ability and skills as well. Three days ago (Oct 10) they held the official announcement of their fight with the press. The two seemed very great match for each other. Hopefully, there will be no hindrances for their upcoming fight.

I beg to disagree though, still one of the most awaited fight in the welterweight division, specially that Crawford will defend his belt against someone that is a live dog such as Porter.

And with Pacquiao's retirement, someone will have to take the reign of the division. So either Crawford or Spence Jr. But if Porter can win this fight, then it will be a totally different landscape again. So for me this fight is very critical for both parties, Crawford to win and cemented his place in the welterweight, and if Porter wins then Spence will somewhat can be consider the best as he beaten Porter already in a very close fight.

[judeafante]

Nice fight and I think it will end as soon as expected since both fighters are known for their power and knock-out record. Both are still in their prime and I think Crawford has some slight advantage due to his clean record. Although Porter is the underdog, he has a high chance to win this fight because of his power and strategy. Is this also their first fight this year? then it's was a long time for both of them. I hope they still both have their power when they step in the ring.

It's not that I don't believe in Porter but Crawford is an all-around fighter and who knows how to take advantage of his height and reach, and we all know Crawford wants to have a unification bout against Spence and it could happen if he could win against Spence and Porter will just become a big stepping stone for this unification to happen.

This fight is really important for these 2 boxers as it is a determining factor where will their respective careers be heading to. Crawford has the advantage, the reason why bookies are heavily favoring him, but Porter has the power to upset this match. So this is quite interesting among boxing fans. At least watch a toe-to-toe fight as Pacquiao already retired from boxing scene.

Porter has been losing a lot of fights lately, he lost to Spence in a title fight and here he goes again fighting Crawford for the title if he losses, here again, might as well stick to being a boxing analyst, he is good at analyzing fights, have seen him giving good analysis especially on the Wilder - Fury fight, if he losses, here again, might as well make a career change.

A good inspiration for him to learn from that last fight again, spence if he does want to survive in this sport.

A chance for a title which he really wanted to earn. This fight will really bring fans' attentions knowing Porter to be an upset guy,
He can beat Crawford if mistake from the other side takes place. While knowing Crawford as a good strategize fighter, he doesn't
entertain mistake as he carefully analyze before he moves according to his plan.

We will see both strong fighters who are eager to win and not to let these opportunities to pass their hands.

You sure of that?

Here are his 3 defeats so far in his career.

2019-09-28       Errol Spence Jr
2016-06-25       Keith Thurman
2014-08-16       Kell Brook

So he hasn't been losing fights lately, and as far as I know he predicted that Fury will win this fight, so he was totally wrong.

“I actually picked Deontay Wilder to knock out Tyson Fury. I’m a big advocate of experience, a big advocate of amateur background, an Olympic background, yes Deontay Wilder was an Olympian but he did not have the experience as an amateur that Tyson Fury has,” said Shawn Porter.

Well that sounds like they are going to use Porter, it is for this reason that Porter must shine, and why not win, however I think Crawford is far superior in his technique.

Most people are going in favor of Crawford, although at a time when I practiced boxing, anything can happen, although experience and skill count, I would say that preparation before a fight defines everything, even if you have the talent and everything to be superior.

Possible, maybe Crawford really thinks that amongst the welterweight, Porter is the weaker and it will be a great victory for him if he manage to beat a tough Porter. And then maybe he can call Errol Spence. If Spence is not healthy, then maybe Thurman, the second best welterweight we have in the PBC stable. And after that, a unification fight with Spence, it's cannot be avoided anymore and this could be the biggest fight in welterweight division.

If Crawford would really want a tough match for him, he should call Thurman as this guy likes to bounce back after a loss from Pacman. I'm not sure if it's possible because they all rely on their promoter and with regards to the promoter's issue, I guess Crawford has a little problem with that as Bob Arum would not let his cash down destroy the cash flow by fighting a fighter that he doesn't have a huge advantage.

Caveat though, we really don't know if Crawford has sign a deal with Top Rank to extend his contract with them. But reading as what is happening, maybe Crawford insist that he will sign the contract if ever he faces a good fighter not in Top Rank stable, or this is really his last fight with TR so why not make money for him and for Bob one last time?

There's probably a lot of good fighters that are not in Top Rank, some boxers who left Top Rank were able to make a decision on their own on whom to fight and it's high time for Crawford to take the risk and don't just fight average level boxers just to keep his undefeated record.

We already have a lot of undefeated boxers, but no one could follow the achievement of Pacman, and he is the crowd favorite every time he fights, I guess that's why Crawford should follow.

If he wanted to create new hype in his name, following what Pacman did before will give him more exposures.

Maybe it's a big risk if fans will not buy his move and there're no promoters or not so big promoters that will cater for his fight.
His camp needs to make sure that before gambling to this decision, they already have someone who will help or will carry everything.

He needs to win first, then settle if there're any plans from his camp to do this kind of move.
