    postol has a good long jab.

    postol needs to box all night and he can beat crawford.

    crawford is gonna be trying to make this guy fight , and speed wise its close. i have a feeling its gonna be a hard fight to score but crawford should be able to win a decision on the score cards .

    Postol is paying 4.75 for the win down here. I might get me sum of dat.

    I feel Crawford should win but I don't think Postol should be that big an underdog. Good value.

    Nobody beats postal without any problems. He's too tall and rangy with a good jab.

    I think Crawford will win but saying he'll do it with no problems because of Postol's lack of power is over-simplistic. Power isn't the attribute that's gotten him to where he is and he's never relied on it, so I can't see it being an issue now.

    It will be very difficult to beat a fighter with Postol's attributes without a problem.

    Not only will Postol beat Crawford, you'll all be shock at how easy he makes it look. Postol's speed, combinations, and awkward rhythm are all being overlooked here big time. Crawford has never been in the ring with someone of his caliber, reach or size or with his jab.

    don't underestimate Postal. would not be surprise at a Postal win. and to say he has no power is just wrong. he has other attributes. he stays composed and fights tall. Crawford may disagree with that assessment after the fight.

    Everybody with eyes in his face could see what happened in this fight.

    Postol has no power to knockout no one.

    Crawford will clown postol. There is no single scenario where postol can win to Crawford. And you will cast this happening live in your RBR thread. So, prepare yourself for that.

    Postol is awkward and I believe Crawford is slightly overrated. However I still think he has enough to win this fight. Looking forward to it.

    When you don't get up after 10 seconds, is a legitimate ko.

    That's a bold call you're going to cancel out a couple of your good picks if you miss it by that magnitude.

    Terrence is too good for the word easy to be used

    Good fight though, once again we got two top guys not afraid to risk it

    Some of these businessmen fighters should take note
