Comments Thread For: Crawford: Postol Unknown, Pacquiao Takes Me To The Next Level

[hitking]

Ward is getting ready to have his second fight since 2013 next month. That fight just got finalized and announced less than 2 weeks ago.
He needs 2 interim fights now before fighting Kovalev.
Let's stop pretending Ward has been active and ready to fight anybody.

Why didn't Ward send GGG an offer when he was actually ready to fight at 168 and not looking for one or two 172lb tune ups? Annnnnnnd GO..... lol

Blah, blah, blah. I'm not talking about Ward. I'm talking about GGG's promoter, when discussing a potential Hopkins fight, stated that Hopkins is a big fight worthy of a move to 168 where Ward wasn't.

"The only fight that could take my career to another level right now is against Manny Pacquiao," said Crawford. "A lot of people talked about Postol, and he is a great fighter, but he's not really known in the United States."

The title is a little misleading, there's nothing that Terrence said that fans would/should disagree with. He's just saying Manny is way more popular than Postol. If he stays at 140, I'm sure he'll be fighting Postol this year (assuming Bob doesn't take him to Showtime where Postol gets locked in......)


I wish we could've seen Crawford/Linares at 135, or even 140. Both of Crawfords last two opponents - Lundy & Jean were brought up from 135. A fight with Anthony Peterson would be fun, and let that lead into a fight with Lamont then Broner.

An old washed up fighter that would make him famous and rich.

Don't act like you wouldn't want the pacquiao fight in his shoes because you would do the same thing if you were him.

Of course you're right. It's rational for him to go after the Pac fight but as a boxing fan surely you'd rather see him fight a fellow champ in his division.

Lmao even these young fighters are now on that prima Donna ****. Smh

Where is Golovkin mentioned in this? Surely if you were wanting to see Ward - Golovkin (as every boxing fan does) then surely Crawford - Postol is the kind of fight you'd like to see too?

Actually Crawford-Postol is much higher on my list that Ward-GGG. My wish fight for Ward has always been Kovalev. Ward-GGG is a mismatch. The only true "interest" I have in it is the devastation it would cause throughout GGG's lame, corny ass fanbase.

Who has been more active, Ward or BHop?
Ward chose inactivity since 2013 and his first fight back last year was at 170+ lb catchweight vs Paul Smith.
Stop pretending like Ward was ready to fight anybody.
He faked an injury to get out of his fight on the Cotto-Canelo PPV. That's what Ward is all about. Horse ****
Why isn't he getting his precious tune ups and interim fights at 168 if that's where he wants to fight? Annnnnnnd GO.....

Bro, I don't give a f.uck. I'm strictly talking about GGG's promoter's comments when talking about the Hopkins fight. If Ward is so inactive, irrelevant, or whatever else. Why does Team GGG always talking about him? Andre Ward has absolutely nothing to do with a potential Hopkins-GGG fight. So why mention him?

[Najuk]

Crawford will avoid Postol until HBO forces him to fight Postol. And when they do it Crawford will change to lie SHowtime or PBC just Stevenson did whe he was forced to fight Kovalev

[CaneloMaidana]

Canelo could just fight his MIDDLEWEIGHT mandatory, Golovkin

You're a coward.

I want to see both. Golovkin scared though.
