    Shawn Porter, David Avanesyan and now Errol Spence.

    Maybe he is just fighting people at the end of their careers.

    Errol Spence' career was over after he flipped a lambo and god gave him a 2nd chance at life.

    He might very well be but it would be nice if he showed that a little more often. Even right now I don’t really sense any sense of urgency to make anything happen.

    Postol was already getting the good ol' Eastern Euro push on this forum as the second coming of Jesus and Crawford shut that **** down instantly. Postol was completely forgotten.

    He beat Danny Garcia and stopped Ugas after that. No on was saying his career was over after this. Complete revisionist history to say that Spences career was over back then. Just a way to discredit Crawford.

    And it was a ferrari not a lamborginni

    Ye that wasn't true & you know it.. TCs 6 year long 40 fight career is extremely thin resume wise.. that's why you need to put a revisionist spin on things. No one serious on any forum thought Postol was outstanding. He has one good win. That's it. Postol will never be considered elite or a signature opponent. Wrap it up all you want.. Crawfords resume in comparison to his forebears is truly dire.. Fact. To top it off he's been weight grifting his entire career too.

    Yea, it´s not like Postol didn´t KO everyone´s darling Matthysse.
    Totally undeserving of the hype and fanfare he got.
    Heck, just another useless name on Crawford´s resume. What a pointless fight that was.
    Ugh...

    Postol wasn´t really forgotten. It´s that he had no big promotional backing and ended up inactive as a result(he himself is to blame there too).
    And unfortunately for Postol, he got robbed by Jose Carlos Ramirez. And he was back to inactivity.

    At least in the case of Porter and Spence...those guys DUCKED Crawford for Y E A R S...made a meme of it like it was cool.

    Crawford and Inoue (and probably Usyk) are the best fighters of this era.

    Keep in mind Crawford was a leading frontrunner to fight Pacman and Roach, who trained Postol, turned the Crawford fight down...saying Bud had a bad style for Manny. Bud got robbed of that win too.

    Absolutely false. After Postol beat La Maquina, he was pushed like crazy.

    Postol was a very solid fighter until he fell off a few years ago. For a while he was an underrated win, if not the best on Crawfords resume until Porter and Spence.
