肖恩·波特对特伦斯·克劳福德的对决充满信心:“我知道他是那种我能击倒的人。”

肖恩·波特一直都很自信。无论是在拳击场上与对手较量,还是穿着引人注目的服装闲逛,这位前两届次中量级冠军都散发着一定的自信。
然而,当面对可能与WBO次中量级冠军特伦斯·克劳福德摊牌时,波特的自信心飙升。当大多数人认为他在竞争中处于劣势时,波特只是对这些想法不以为意。
这位147磅重的前腰带持有者不仅相信自己可以取得胜利,而且他还认为自己可以让克劳福德在这个过程中昏迷。
“我知道他是那种我能击倒的人,”波特在最近接受Fight Hype采访时说。
尽管波特(31- 1- 1,17次ko)自2017年与安德烈·贝托(Andre Berto)的比赛后就没有正式赢得过一场淘金胜利,但这位俄亥俄州阿克伦人坚定地支持他的预测。在他最近的一次比赛中,波特与流苏选手塞巴斯蒂安·福尔梅拉进行了12回合的比赛。
目前,波特是下一个和克劳福德交手的人。据他的推广人鲍勃·阿鲁姆说,他的不败之星面前有两种选择。他的第一选择和首选是未来的名人堂第一轮投票球员曼尼·帕奎奥。第二个是波特。但是最近帕奎奥表示他倾向于和加西亚摊牌,理论上波特应该是克劳福德的头号目标。
如果有机会,克劳福德(37胜0负,28次科斯)试图进入另一个方向,波特可以强迫他进入战斗,或被剥夺他的头衔,因为波特坐在强制性的位置。
虽然朋友之间吵架总是被证明是困难的,波特在许多场合表示,他不介意把他们的友谊推到一边。波特曾与小埃罗尔·斯宾塞、丹尼·加西亚、基思·瑟曼和一长串其他伟大的拳手一起分享过这枚戒指,他相信他知道什么是伟大的比赛。
“特伦斯·克劳福德和肖恩·波特是一场伟大的战斗。人们想要娱乐,想要置身于伟大之中。我和克劳福德的对决是每个人都需要的。”
由于波特不断地叫克劳福德,克劳福德似乎变得越来越刻薄。每当有人提起波特的名字时,克劳福德就指着他们的友谊,显得更不情愿地在虚线上签名。
但最近,波特在他的Twitter账户上说,他将在5月做好准备,克劳福德写下了激动的回应。
“保持待命状态。”克劳福德说。“现在你想考验我了。”
波特不想卷入一场口水战,他只是简单地阐述了他不断发出的呼唤。无论如何,他都没有试图进入克劳福德的思想。他只是想站在另一个伟大的拳手的对面。
“我不是在攻击特伦斯·克劳福德,也不是想激怒他。我只是简单地陈述什么是伟大的。”
克劳福德最后一次出现在拳击场上是在2020年11月,当时他在第四轮的比赛中击败了前冠军凯尔·布鲁克。

Shawn Porter has always been confident. Whether he’s taking on an opponent in the ring or sauntering around in one of his more eye-catching wardrobes, the former two-time welterweight champion just exudes a certain confidence.
Yet, when it comes to a possible showdown against WBO welterweight titlist Terence Crawford, Porter’s self-belief goes through the roof. While most would consider him an underdog in their contest, Porter simply shrugs off those thoughts.
The former 147-pound belt holder not only believes that he can pick up the victory, but he’s also under the impression that he can leave Crawford comatose in the process.
“I know that he is the kind of guy that I can knock out,” said Porter during a recent interview with Fight Hype.
Despite Porter (31-3-1, 17 KOs) not officially scoring a knockout win since 2017 against Andre Berto, the Akron Ohio native is standing firmly behind his prediction claim. In his most recent ring appearance, Porter went the 12 round distance with fringe contender Sebastian Formella.
Currently, Porter is the leading man to land a matchup with Crawford next. According to promoter Bob Arum, his undefeated star has two options in front of him. His first and preferred choice is future first-ballot Hall of Famer Manny Pacquiao. Second, would be Porter. But with Pacquiao recently stating that he is “leaning” towards a showdown with Mikey Garcia instead, Porter should in theory be Crawford’s number one target.
If by some chance, Crawford (37-0, 28 KOs) attempts to go in another direction, Porter could force him into the fight or be stripped of his title as Porter sits in the mandatory position.
Although ** a fight between friends has always proved to be difficult, Porter has stated on numerous occasions that he has no issue shoving their friendship to the side. Having shared the ring with Errol Spence Jr., Danny Garcia, Keith Thurman and a long list of other great fighters, Porter believes he knows a great fight when he sees one.
“Terence Crawford and Shawn Porter is a great fight. People want to be entertained and in the midst of greatness. Me vs Terence Crawford is something that I feel everybody needs.”
With Porter persistently calling him out, Crawford appears to be growing acrimonious. Whenever Porter’s name was brought to his attention, Crawford pointed to their friendship and appeared more reluctant in signing on the dotted line.
But recently, with Porter saying on his Twitter account that he would be ready in May, Crawford wrote an agitated response.
“Just stay on standby,” said Crawford. “Now you trying me.”
Not wanting to engage in a war of words, Porter simply expounded on his constant callouts. In no way, shape or form is he attempting to get into the mind of Crawford. He simply wants to stand across the ring from another great fighter.
“I’m not attacking Terence Crawford or trying to get under his skin. I’m just simply stating what’s great.”
Crawford was last seen in the ring in November of 2020, dismantling former champion Kell Brook to the tune of a fourth-round stoppage win.
