[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Hector Garcia capitalized on the opportunity of his lifetime Saturday night. The largely unknown underdog overwhelmed heavily favored 130-pound contender Chris Colbert en route to beating up the brash Brooklyn native and winning a 12-round unanimous decision in Showtime's main event from The Chelsea inside The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. Colbert (16-1, 6 KOs) never dealt well with the Dominican southpaw's pressure or body punching.

Postol is obviously not gonna win this...not because of skill either! You cant be in the USA taking a fight, while your family is in potential danger from *****'s invasion at home. I would have canceled this, postponed it.

There's gonna be way too much on his mind, to win this fight, and it may result in him taking a brutal beating.

His opponent's older brother, he had father health drama on his mind, and he gets beat by somebody he normally would have smoked in 4-5 rounds ;

Colbert...you better be tough, if you're gonna wear trunks with a smiling chicken face on them
