    pressed the gas and stopped Postol. He seemed so much stronger than Postol who is usually so much stronger than everyone else. Remember he lifted Postol up and was laughing and spinning him lol.

    How many of you believe him?

    Say "I" in your Oswald voice lol...

    I......:lol:

    Of course he could have. He made that clear early in the fight. But he didn't despite having nothing to fear from Postols power and nothing to fear from Postols ability to box.

    I think he could have and he should have.

    He tried in the 12th when he went to Orthodox but it was too late. Should have tried in 10th on. Would have helped his marketability big time.

    I really like the way Crawford fights but that tongue sticking out garbage was tasteless.

    He said that he just wanted to box him because he clearly had him frustrated.

    People don't know that Bud was really mad that Postol thought that he was scared of him.:-( that really bothered Bud. IMO it motivated him. Arum loves the guy. And I f Arum loves the guy then I'm pretty sure that he thinks that Bud will step on the gas in bigger fights. I know I do lol...:good

    I dont buy it. Crawford tried but postol is tough. You're not going to be able to ko everyone. That's boxing.

    That's where I'm at. Crawford tried two or three times to knock his ass out but he didn't go and indeed fought back when Crawford stopped his assault. I think the only legitimate time he had him ready to go, that BS standing eight stopped it.

    Yeah, that was weak and undignified. I wonder why some fighters do that. It's mostly done when they getting their asses kicked but Crawford was winning. Maybe it was frustration at not being able to knock Postol out.

    With only 12 KOs, Postol is not exactly a KO machine lol, so it doesn't compute.

    I bet you were the one of the haters who said Postol would KO Crawford. Yet Crawford is the one knocking Postol half way across the ring, yet Crawford was the runner. Haters on this board are predictable.
