      Postol definitely fitting the overrated, slow, stiff, chinny russian trope to a tee right now.
      Gamboa was taking many rounds. Dulorme was taking off rounds. Ricky Burns did decent as well.
      Beltran ate Crawford's punches like they were candy for 12 rounds barely even got hurt much less dropped. Probably did better in the fight too.

      Those gym tales about Frankie Gomez whooping him in sparring were obviously true.

        Hed be the cleaner, harder hitting, and more refined Timothy Bradley.

        I love PAC, but he needs to stay away from his guy. It's clear as day he'd just counter him all night.
        Are you a boxing fan or not? I think Crawford matches up well, but I want to see the fight.

              Have you noticed Crawford's movement and counters?? Postol is an excellent fighter but there's a damn good reason for him being hesitant.

                  Wait a sec, Bud hits Postol in the back of the head early in the fight and nobody says anything. Postol Hits Bud and the show stops?

                    Because he's still infinitely more effective and doing real damage.

                    Also, consider his opponent. You guys KEEP acting like this guys some bum.

                    Did you not see the heavy shots Postol was landing in the 11th and now the 12th???
