    all the keep away stuff from crawford kind of disappointed me. if he fights this way against someone with no power, i can just imagine what pac would have him doing. all of a sudden im not interested in that fight.

    How many times did postol get rocked by a jab in this fight? Atleast twice?

    For years I've been calling Bud a boring mother****er, he proved it to everyone else on the largest stage of them all. He's another coward like Mayweather, only without the personality.

    Yeah that wasn't a necessary point deduction. Poor reffing from Weeks.

    Impressive performance by Crawford but I'm glad I didn't have to pay for that. He could've got Postol out of there if he wanted but he spent pretty much the whole fight on his bike. It's not like Postol is a big puncher who can take you out with one shot. He needs to land a lot of flush shots to get you out of there so Crawford didn't need to box so cautiously. Good performance from him nonetheless though

    I'm honestly a little confused as to how a fighter who likes to get KO's is able to dominate his opponent, drop him a couple of times, reduces to him one shot and yet only ends up coasting for almost half the fight instead finding a way to get a KO, and which by the way, adjustments is also his specialty.

    You have Mayweather PTSD, that will stay with you for the rest of your life.

    Dominating performance and the betting odds were completely right. Was not going to be a competitive fight. Postal was severely overrated. Many posters are looking foolish yet again. On to the next one.

    There also isn't a single casual who'll watch this on youtube and clamour to see him fight Pacquaio, or a hardcore fan who will talk their friends into watching Crawford's next fight etc.

    With HBO closing their purse strings he needs to appeal to more fans than just the hardcore.

    Brilliant win, just not a marketable performance against someone who really was there to be take out in the later rounds.
