Are the people who were saying Crawford is ducking Postol going to pick against him?

    Not a chance ellerbe... People don't have that much faith in him like they did Mathtysse over Garcia... People who say they will, will switch last minute:deal

    Postol is not a 140 lb Wlad... He's a poor mans 140 lb Pulev. Can't see why anyone would pick him here.

    Fk off, stop trying to discredit Crawford. Crawford's resume takes a complete dump on little g's resume now.

    Gift was the guy ducking Postol.

    I have no idea why people would think Bud was. I thought he'd be a solid 3-1 favorite tonight, but made it look easy.

    Yep. Picking Postol over Crawford was the delusion that Wlad left us with, as if anyone with height and good jab could do what he did. A young, prime Wlad was much more athletic, had much better footwork and power.

    The difference in levels between Crawford and Postol was always clear, one is a very good fighter, the other one is elite.

    Even Old Wlad had one punch power in either fist.

    Regardless of what stylistic similarity Postol had to the older Wlad, he could never replicate one core aspect of what made Wlad so hard to beat: guys being terrified of historic-level power from the straight right, jab, and left hook.

    It is strange how he infects every thread. it's tiring to remember all the reasons to hate or love someone who has spoken about 100 words in public.

    It's simple, guess who always tries to discredit black boxers? The little g fan base, doesn't take a genius to figure that one out. It was the little g fanbase picking Postol and saying Crawford was ducking.

    I've not seen a fighter affect people this much in a long time, right across the spectrum from extreme man love to extreme Schlongmaster style infatuation /hatred.
