    Cuellar is going to beat Mares' ass, so if you think Cuellar is garbage we should cross Mares off that list too no?

    Yup, I'd like to see him against somebody who fights back. Rueda was can. Look at his resume. Beat all bums, and get a title shot. Put Valdez in with Russell Jr.

    Well, yeah, Mares ceased to be the same elite he was at the start of his prime years ago. Too many wars.

    Postol too stiff for Crawford. His chief asset is the jab and Crawford has a better one - two, actually, equally adept from either stance.

    In fairness....Russell Jr got his first title fight off a similar string of opponents

    Eh, he's still a pretty big celebrity though (makes regular TV appearances years after retirement) - certainly more of a name than Roberto in the US, and has the more famous guy (if not primarily known for his acting) portraying him - and the Four Kings have always had a strong mutual respect in spite of whatever grudges they have lingering. I'd be surprised if he wasn't at least reached out to for his blessing.

    I need to move to Argentina, get in shape, fight fisherman, cab drivers, bums, and a couple journeymen, build up my KO ratio and get a title shot.

    Crawford has too many variables for Postol, in my opinion. Could be wrong, but I don't think Postol hits hard enough either.

    Feels like an age we've been waiting for this fight though. The beginning of the Crawford takeover?
