    An in shape Postol is a very good and tough fighter I agree. Maybe he will get himself back to his best for this one. He'll have been made aware of how highly Taylor is considered I'd imagine. He's faced Crawford so I doubt he'll be losing much sleep but he'll still be focused for this fight big time.

    That's the hundred thousands question.

    We're in the UK.

    Physically Postol will be in a very good shape. Mentally, though.... That's the question. I must admit that he (and his trainer as well) looks like he's going to the execution block...

    Well, it's not his fault 140 was so weak. He did the best he could there.
    But true nonetheless.

    I agree, Najmiddinov is no "bum" but so is Taylor. Taylor is also a southpaw, has power in both hands, moving fast and well and is attacking from every angle. Imo Taylor is a similar type only two or three classes above the Uzbek. So we all know what is gonna happen on Saturday.
