MGM Grand, Las Vegas - On Saturday night, Terence Crawford (29-0, 20KOs) scored two knockdowns and won a twelve round unanimous decision over previously undefeated Viktor Postol (28-1, 12KOs) to unify the WBO/WBC junior welterweight world titles. The lopsided scores were 118-107, 118-107, 117-108.

The victory solidified Crawford's position as the best 140-pound fighter in the sport, and also raises his profile as one of the best pound for pound fighters in the sport.

Postol on the other hand was a little sour at the outcome. He claims that he tried to make it a more exciting fight, since fans were spending their hard earned money to purchase the pay-per-view. Postol claims his efforts where thwarted because Crawford was always on the move.

According to Postol, he could have implemented a technical strategy and made it a very boring chess match. Instead, he made a decision to continuously move forward in order to create exchanges.

"Mentally I knew that this was a pay-per-view opportunity and everybody was paying for this fight. And what I knew is that people who were paying wanted to see a fight and what I tried to do is make the fight happen," Postol said.

"I tried to go forward. I didn't choose to do a technical style and make it a chess match. I did my best to make it an exciting fight. I think the other side didn't really want to do that. Terence Crawford was running and it just didn't happen."

"I was going forward most of the fight. I tried my best to make ir a fight. He was a running, he was fast and a good boxer."

Crawford won't deny the fact that he never stopped moving in the ring. He maintains that his movement left Postol unable to unload with any of his familiar arsenal - like his uppercut.

“He’s the type of fighter that’s got to be set to punch,” Crawford said. “I kept his feet moving and kept him off-balance. ... I caught my rhythm. I did everything I wanted to do from then on.”
