Shawn Porter was defeated by Terence Crawford in their welterweight title bout.

American bruiser, he scored the largest win of his career with an extended streak of undefeated wins to 38 and a first-ever TKO loss to his opponent.

Errol Spence Jr, the IBF and WBC champions, was at ringside. However, he left his seat when Porter died. Bud suggested that he might be coming for Porter in his post-fight interview.

Crawford stated, "I figured in round one that my win would be because I had the reach.

"He wanted me to push him back, but I did it back for him.

"Shawn Porter can be a tough fighter. But I knew that my dad would end it when I dropped him with an uppercut and again.

"I will fight who wants it next, everybody knows who I want [Spence Jr].

"I told Shawn Porter I love him and that Shawn Porter is a good friend of mine. I never wanted him to fight me."

Porter sustained a cut above the eye after an accidental head-to-head collision in round 3.

Crawford suffered an eye injury in the second round after another collision with his opponent.

But that didn't stop him from grabbing his ninth stoppage in succession.
