Asahan na ang pinakamabigat na welterweight action sa Nob. 20 (21 Manila time) sa pagitan nina Terrence "Bud" Crawford at Shawn Porter sa isang inaabangang bakbakan sa Las Vegas, Nevada.

Ngayon pa lang ang mga boxing experts fans at insiders ng sport ay may kani-kanya nang opinyon kung sino ang mananaig. May nagsasabing, mas malakas daw si Porter, pero peligro namang kalaban si Crawford sa panahon ngayon.

Sa komento ng New York fighter, historian, at commentator Tommy Rainone sa maxboxing, para sa kanya si Crawford ay isang versatile fighter at maraming natatagong arsenal.

“Terrence Crawford (37-0) is a hard-punching southpaw that can box just as well.“Traditionally southpaws are not come forward aggressors but tend to box and move more. Crawford, along with Errol Spence break the mold that Pacquiao led by example with,” hinggil sa estilo ni Bud.

Mahirap din daw dikitan si Crawford. “He can be just as dangerous and effective fighting at close range as he can at long-range working behind his jab, and that diversity along with his mental toughness make him a pound for pound top 3 in the world today.”

Sapat na aniya ang lakas ni Crawford para tapatan si Porter (31-3-1). “You can’t fake experience and Shawn Porter has a ton of it, at a world-class level which he has been competing at since 2013 when he defeated Devon Alexander,” aniya tungkol sa tigasing estilo ni Porter.

Tiyak na ibubuhos ng dalawa ang kanilang lakas. Pero sa kanyang prediksiyon, si Crawford ang mananaig sa "late stoppage" o matatapos sa one-sided last 3, 4 rounds decision.

“Crawford is going to beat Porter at his own inside game but do so with some creativity along the way, mixing up boxing and fighting.”Pero kumabig ito at nagsabing. “I expect Porter to have some early success.”
