Just went to check the odds for the fight, Paddypower (UK bookies) are offering 4/1 for Postol to win... am I missing something here?? That seems like pretty good value
Idk poll seems f'd up sorry for wasting everyones time
The poll is great. I voted for Postol to win by KO. I never have thought Crawford is quite as good as most think he is. Gamboa hurt him and his defense is not that tight. Postol is a fast handed sharp shooter with a better chin and defense in my opinion. If Crawford wins then I will change my mind about him. Right now I think Crawford is very good but Postol is a little better.

Those odds are correct. Crawford is highly respected and thought of as the next big star or already a big star. I will bet on Postol especially with those odds.
Got Crawford. I like Postol, he fights smart and uses all his tools. However, I've seen more of Crawford and like what he brings to the table more so than what Postol has to offer.
He is too square, stands straight up and the clinching he does will be nulified by bud work in and out of the clinch
Great match up
Bud is finding his stride, is in the mist of his prime and Postol doesnt have the style I see troubling him
Bud will be in tough when he faces an athletic counter puncher with power like a Keith Thurman.
Bud is a good switch hitter but he can be timed and countered. Luckily he has faced smaller guys or guys who dont pose style of speed issues...Postol doesnt either but soon especially if he moves to 140, he'll have togher fights
I dont see anyone hanging with this guy at 140 and below

Pretty much how I see it other than I don't think Crawford will stop him, he could but I'm betting on the decision lol. I'm actually shocked by the poll so far. Seems a lot of people are rating that win over Lucas much higher than I am. Anyways, Postol is a good fighter, but Crawford is just on another level imo. It may take him a few rounds to figure him out, but once he does, Postol is in for a long night.
