"Terence Crawford vs. Shawn Porter is an upcoming welterweight professional boxing match contested between WBO welterweight champion Terence Crawford, and two-time former welterweight champion Shawn Porter. The bout is set for November 20, 2021 at the Michelob Ultra Arena in Paradise, Nevada, U.S.[1]
On July 31, 2021, the WBO ordered Terence Crawford to defend his welterweight title against the #2 ranked WBO welterweight contender Shawn Porter. The former two-time welterweight champion was seen as the biggest challenge in Crawford's career up to that point, with ESPN describing Porter as "a quantum leap in competition".[2] As the two sides were unable to negotiate the terms of the fight, the WBO set a purse bid for September 2, 2021, which was later postponed until September 14.[3] Crawford and Porter would adhere to a 60-40 purse split, rather than the usual 80-20 split for mandated matches, taking into account the earnings from their three previous fights.[4]
On September 14, it was announced that a deal had been agreed to stage the fight on November 20 at the Michelob Ultra Arena at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, airing on ESPN+ PPV. The event will be promoted and led by Crawford's promoter Top Rank, in association with Porter's promoter Premier Boxing Champions. In adherence to the agreed 60-40 split, Crawford is guaranteed upward of $6 million, while Porter is guaranteed at least $4 million.[5]"
