    Very impressed by Postol's performance!

    First time watching him and was very impressed. His combinations are a thing of beauty even if they don't have much pop on them. He knows where to throw them and just does not stop punching. I think he would school broner and have a great chance at beating Garcia.

    Agree on everything, I was impressed and he seems like a total packages other than 1 punch ko power but we have to find out how he takes a good shot from a guy who will land on him more frequently and with accuracy.

      I think he beats Danny. Broner wouldn't have a chance

        Very good performance tonight.

        There will be some interesting match ups for him at 140.

          I think his performance tonight will hurt his career in the short term. He schooled Aydin. Others at 140 will use his lack of name recognition to not fight him. I was very impressed however with his performance against a solid name opponent

            He seemed to have gotten motivated after the back of the head punch.. He started throwing real hard.

            Dude throws A LOT. Really impressive stamina and pretty good combination puncher.

            He just needs a balance. Maybe a tad less pillow punches and more focused punches like in the last round. He'd be great.

            I doubt Provo and Postol would ever match up now with the same gym/Roach and Somodio trainer.

              He was very impressive and he hit hard enough to KO a guy who I don't think has ever been knocked down before and I know he has never been KOed before.

                    He is a pretty solid fighter. I think his defense is not that good because Aydin did hit him when he decided to throw but he used his superior offense as good defense because Aydin wouldn't throw when Postal was throwing.

                    I certainly want to see him again against better opposition that is a bit more committed to attacking him, but I do think he would provide an interesting test for most 140 pounders.
