    he stunned him with a left hook in the first, and he hurt him later in the fight with a body shot. his legs very clearly buckle from the shot in the first. when he's hurt with the body shot, he clearly changes the way he fights for a period of time in response to the debilitation that comes with a punch to the liver. he goes for a headbutt and clinches, and he starts to tuck his right elbow. roy jones, an all time great, and a good body puncher himself, said he was hurt.


    i fully expect you to develop your own ******ed standards by which he wasn't hurt, and i don't expect anybody to care or take you seriously.


    a fighter gets hurt twice. you say he doesn't.
    credibility damaged. card pulled.

      Before the fight, i posted that postol was nothing special, and would be like fonfara or at best a vanes matriosiyan..

      But i give him credit, he wrecked aydun which was very impressive... Good performance by Postol

        lets not forget that aydin also hurt him twice.
        He beat Hank Lundy as well.

        I'm higher on Hank Lundy than most people. I think he's a good fighter despite some losses.

          Maybe, but I think I've had everyone Danny's fought beating Danny. He somehow pulls it off despite looking mediocre.

          Postol's defense doesn't look elite-level to me.

            I'm sorry but Postol's performance was lackluster at best.
            People who were their were twetting about how sorry of a fight it was.

              Well in "Pistol" Pew Pew's! defence he did just KO a guy who's never been dropped as a pro, so I think the bigger picture is;

              The guy has an extremely good engine on him
              He looks like he can handle an average powered punch
              He does have fight ending power as we saw, because although he pitt patts for the most part the fact he can hit hard when he wants to is so dangerous about him.

              All in all, "Pistol" pew pew! will be avoided and eventually I hope he moves upto 147

                I saw him against Lundy and he dominated him easily. I was impressed with the KO given his low KO rate.

                  I'm surprised people are so impressed with him. The KO was good but that's all, He moves like a robot ,no rhythm. I don't think he can beat any decent name at 140.

                      Well what I meant was that it's realistic to talk about because they're effectively due to fight one another.

                      He has a good jab, I don't know if he beats Garcia but I don't think the fight happens.
