史蒂文森: “特伦斯的风格,对于肖恩 · 波特来说太糟糕了”

每当提到肖恩·波特和特伦斯·克劳福德可能的对位时,前WBO前轻量级冠军史蒂文森总是摇头。由于波特在世界拳击组织中排名第一,这位前次中量级腰带持有者打算击败克劳福德并声称他的腰带是他自己的。
总的来说,这两家公司之间的竞争被视为一种竞争,双方都有可能获胜。另一方面,在史蒂文森看来,他们可能的摊牌是单向的。
“肖恩·波特是一个给人们带来很多麻烦的拳手,”史蒂文森在接受Fight Hype采访时说。“但在我看来,风格造就了打斗,特伦斯风格对肖恩·波特来说是非常糟糕的风格。特伦斯是一个喜欢拳击的神射手,肖恩·波特跑进来,试图表现得很丑。我不认为这是肖恩·波特和特伦斯打的好方式。”
虽然史蒂文森很难想象波特会给克劳福德带来任何麻烦,但他承认波特是一个粗犷的人,和他们一样坚韧。事实上,史蒂文森甚至说波特会找到成功的时刻。然而,这样的时刻将会非常少。
“别误会我的意思,他会挨打的。肖恩·波特很强悍,也是个很好的拳手,但我认为特伦斯比肖恩更快。他也是一个比肖恩更好更强的拳手。我只是觉得这对肖恩来说是一种糟糕的风格。”
无论肖恩·波特和特伦斯·克劳福德的对决是否像史蒂文森所认为的那样是一边倒的,大多数拳击界都希望看到克劳福德走进拳击场,与精英竞争。
尽管经历了三次失败,波特证明了即使失败了,他也能在整整36分钟内让一个拳手痛打一场。在2019年9月以微弱优势输给小斯宾塞之后,波特在今年8月迅速反弹,轻松战胜了塞巴斯蒂安·福梅尔。
在胜利之后,几乎有一天波特都在喊克劳福德。目前,双方仍在研究交易的财务部分,同时也在探索其他选择。
如果一切都能解决,那么波特将很容易被视为克劳福德所面对的最优秀的147磅拳手。然而,这种说法对史蒂文森来说毫无意义。他最后一次检查的时候,克劳福德仅仅在三个月前击倒了凯尔布鲁克。
当然,布鲁克在2014年超过波特赢得了IBF冠军。对于这位前羽量级腰带手来说,这个数字并不能说明波特就是克劳福德职业生涯中最厉害的对手。
“不能说这是他最艰难的一场比赛,因为他只和凯尔·布鲁克打了一场比赛,他能轻而易举地击败肖恩·波特。”
史蒂文的话从技术上讲可能是真的,但很多人认为布鲁克当时正处于巅峰期。现在,34岁的他已经输掉了几场比赛,这位英国人已经不是以前的他了。
不过,对史蒂文森来说,他的观点是一样的。谁跟克劳福德在擂台上并不重要,帮你自己一个忙,尽可能地避开他。
“很多人应该让特伦斯一个人静一静,他是个了不起的斗士。特伦斯是个野蛮人。”

Former WBO featherweight titlist Shakur Stevenson continues to shake his head whenever a possible matchup between Shawn Porter and Terence Crawford is mentioned. With Porter holding the number one ranking in the WBO sanctioning body, the former welterweight belt holder is aiming to knock off Crawford and claim his belt as his own.
By and large, a matchup between the two is viewed as competitive and one that could go either way. To Stevenson on the other hand, he views their possible showdown as one-way traffic.
“Shawn Porter is a fighter who gives a lot of people problems,” said Stevenson during an interview with Fight Hype. “But in my opinion, styles make fights and Terence style is just a really bad style for Shawn Porter. Terence is a sharpshooter that likes to box, Shawn Porter runs in and tries to be ugly. I don’t think that’s a good style for Shawn Porter to try and fight Terence with.”
Although Stevenson has a hard time envisioning Porter giving Crawford any sort of trouble, he did admit that Porter is rugged and as tough as they come. In fact, Stevenson went as far as to say that Porter will find moments of success. However, those moments will be few and far between.
“He’s going to get some punches in don’t get me wrong. Shawn Porter is tough and a really good fighter but I just think Terence is faster than Shawn. He’s also a better and bigger puncher than Shawn. I just think it’s a bad style for Shawn.”
Regardless of whether or not a Shawn Porter vs Terence Crawford showdown is as one-sided as Stevenson believes it will be, most of the boxing world simply wants to see Crawford step into the ring against elite competition.
Despite having three losses on his resume, Porter proved that even in defeat he can give a fighter hell for a full 36 minutes. After losing a close split decision to Spence Jr. in September of 2019, Porter bounced right back with an easy win over Sebastian Formella this past August.
Following the win, almost a day hasn’t gone by where Porter hasn’t called out Crawford. At the moment, both sides are still working on the financial part of a deal while also exploring other options.
If everything can be worked out, then Porter will easily be viewed as the best fighter Crawford has faced as a 147 pounder. Yet, that statement makes absolutely no sense to Stevenson. The last time he checked, Crawford just knocked out Kell Brook a mere three months ago.
Brook, of course, outboxed Porter in 2014 to win the IBF title. To the former featherweight belt holder, the math just doesn’t add up to Porter being the toughest opponent of Crawford’s career.
“Can’t say that’s his toughest fight when he just fought Kell Brook, somebody that outboxed Shawn Porter as easy as possible.”
Steven’s words might technically be true, but many believe Brook was smack-dab in the middle of his prime at that time. Now, at the of 34 and several stoppage losses to his name, the British native simply isn’t the same fighter he used to be.
Still, for Stevenson, his point is the same. It doesn’t matter who is in the ring with Crawford, just do yourself a favor and avoid him for as long as humanly possible.
“A lot of people need to leave Terence alone, he’s a helluva fighter. Terence is a savage man.”
