Crawford's resume grows more suspect

And last but not least, Crawford is a huge weight bully who has typically been rehydrating 15-18 pounds for his fights at 135 AND even up at 140.

Terence Crawford vs Andrey Klimov - contested at Lightweight

Crawford 149 - Klimov 140

Terence Crawford vs Yuriorkis Gamboa - contested at Lightweight

Crawford 152 - Gamboa 145

Terence Crawford vs Raymundo Beltran - contested at Lightweight

Crawford 153 - Beltran 147

Terence Crawford vs Hank Lundy - contested at Light-welterweight

Crawford 155 - Lundy 151

Crawford 155 - Jean 155 - contested at Light-welterweight

Crawford 157 - Postol 152 - contested at Light-welterweight

Crawford 157 - Diaz 161 - contested at Light-welterweight

So as you can see Crawford has been the heavier man on fight night for all bar 2 of his fights (I think Molina might have been heavier so maybe 3) where his ring weights have been announced (and often by a significant amount) and in that one instance where he wasn't his opponent weighed the same as him *this post was written before Bud's last fight and I don't know what his ring weight was for that one - I'll update it later*

Like I said Crawford was absolutely killing himself to make 135. So much so that it was pretty much the main theme for his HBO 2 Days special

Crawford rehydrates 15-18lbs on fight night. He rehydrated 17lbs for Postol even though he'd only officially moved up to 140 the year before. Crawford actually weighed more for his lowest recorded fight night weight at lightweight than career light-welter Postol did for his fights against Aydin and Matthysse. Crawford was 149 and Postol was 148 for those two fights.

Loma 129 - Ramirez 135

The maximum amount of weight Loma has hydrated since moving up to 130 is 9lbs, but it's only been 7lbs for 2 of his 5 fights up there, and the weight for 2 of the others wasn't announced, conversely, Crawford is still rehydrating 17lbs up at 140. So think about that one before you crucify Loma for picking on little Rigoblin. And also think about the fact that it was Rigoblin who called Loma out not the other way round. In fact, he waged a protracted Twitter campaign at him constantly accusing him of ducking him and the good old LDBC (most of whom said Rigo was going to knock Loma the F out) aided him in that campaign by tearing into Loma at every chance they could accusing him of ducking Rigoblin. They went in on Loma like a pack of wild animals for months and months, if not longer, saying he was running scared from Rigoblin. So Loma couldn't win no matter what he did.

Let me know the last time Crawhype was outweighed by 11lbs in the ring, fighting on foreign soil and punched in the testicles 4000 times. I'll wait.

You ever thought the reason the Postol hype came about was because some of us rate Crawford so lowly, that we thought a mediocre fighter like Postol could give him some issues? As opposed to us thinking he's some kind of world beater?

And for the record when they were actually boxing each other in the middle of the ring in the first four rounds, it was a close fight, then the fifth happened when Crawford just came out raining bombs down trying to get him out of there, then he got the lead, and ran for the last 7, so technically, when standing in the middle of the ring mano a mano, neither really ha the upper hand. So based on skills Postol can hang with him better than most.
