One of 2021’s most pivotal Welterweight matchups hits the pay-per-view airwaves this evening (Sat., Nov. 20, 2021) when unbeaten WBO champion Terence Crawford meets two-time titlist Shawn Porter.

MMAmania.com will deliver LIVE coverage of tonight’s main event below. The ESPN+ PPV broadcast kicked off at 9 p.m. ET, while Crawford and Porter will likely make the walk closer to midnight.

Though indisputably a pound-for-pound talent, Crawford has long struggled to find quality opponents due to most of the division’s elites fighting under different management. Tonight represents a rare collaboration between Top Rank and Premier Boxing Champions, who came to terms when the WBO mandated that Crawford and Porter fight.

The main card will also see former Olympians Esquiva Falcao and Janibek Alimkhanuly take on Patrice Volny and Hassan N’dam, respectfully, while Raymond Muratalla takes on late replacement Elias Araujo in the opener.
