Crawford vs Postol maybe FOTY quality! Crawford is gonna a hard nights work working out Pistol Postol. It's going to be a very even contest mid rounds, someone will need to take the fight by the scruff of the neck, it's gonna be alot more agressive than people will think, neither man can rest on there laurels! I expect a chess match in the 4st rounds, with postol slightly ahead winning the jabs, Crawford uses more intelligence and starts landing lefts mid rounds. And by the latter part of the fight I think we may see a war! Power will and toughness will shine through! People are sleeping on this fight. It's a 50/50 IMO. The fact postol is 4/1 underdog is preposterous
I think Matthysse hurt Postol pretty bad early in the fight and had him ready to go, but Lucas looked burned out, most likely from the wars he had with Prov and Molina. Postol looks like he gets stronger as the fight progresses and will wear you down where Crawford has a bigger punch and is equally dangerous from the 1rst to the last round. If Crawford respects him too much Postol can outbox him that's why Crawford needs to make it a war and by the looks of it, Postol welcomes it!
Is a great fight . Postol has alot of tools. Honestly freddie roach plays huge roll in fight wat game plan will he imply? A offensive onslaught from postol is wat bud want to see. And freddie is an offensive guy . Postols chin better be ready cuz bud is poweful
Good fight postol has that reaxh and knows how to use iy and he aint scared to get into wars either. Crawford has great iq and is and extemely well rounder fight that can fight from southpaw and orthodox. 55-45 going for crawford
Sure. That's the last result I hope. The earth crashing right into the sun tomorrow imho is more prossible than postol winning that fight.
Unfortunatelly I will not be able to watch it live... :'( But no, postol lacks of the skill to take rounds from crawford. And he lacks of power to do so too. And he lacks of boxing iq to do so too. His only advantage is his reach. But that's a problem for unskilled fighters like me when i was amateur. Long reach fighters were a nightmare to me, but for really good, skilled and boxingwise fighters, long reach is not big issue if there is no power/boxingIQ with it. You will see. As I told you, you will be amazed. How the h... crawford won so easily? that will be the question in your head after the fight.
Several people on this forum are on record saying Postol is easy work I can't wait to bump after the fight
Crawford's overconfidence might sink him. Confidence like that helps alot when facing lesser fighters than yourself, but it becomes a liability when facing top tier guys. I don't know enough about Postol, but Crawford takes too many risks sometimes, which makes him fun to watch , but could also lead to his downfall.
I see it as a highly skilled chest match between two young guns. If a fight breaks out its because Crawford forces it. But I highly doubt it will be on the level of Vargas/Salido or Thurman/Porter, so suggesting a FOTY is far fetched to me.
My prediction: Scorecards: Postol: 115-113 Crawford: 117-111 ???????: 116-112 Winner will win via Split Decision This content is protected
