Comments Thread For: Terence Crawford: I'm Going To Neutralize Postol's Eurpean Style

[MisterPullman]

Crawford is gonna have to go inside if he wants to win and it still won't be easy. Postol is very good from long range and knows when to clinch/look for the ref when he does.

If Crawford still hasn't figured Postol out by the 7th, it's gonna get nasty for him cuz that's when Postol likes to increase his workrate and he does it from long rate.

Would be Crawford's best win but I got Postol by 12th round TKO.

I see it the same way. If Crawford doesn't do much by mid roundish it's gonna get real fucking ugly for him. Postol is better late rounds

Too right

But you know Project Crawford is high on Arums agenda... Postol isn't winning a closely contested fight, Crawford will win on points. Harder for Postol to win the fight, imo..

Agreed! Great fight. I am staying away from it. I like money too much.

This is the best fight to be made this year hands down. If you don't support this fight, you're not a true boxing fan.

I think he'll lose the boxing game but Crawford is a guy who is OK taking a jab to give a power shot. I think he needs to win with power and, though he's a competent boxer, forget about trying to out box Postol.

Good assessment. I see it the same way. His toughness, and need to get you back will win him this fight. Some people don't think he's special because he's fundamental, and has a tendency to get into a fire fight with his opponent, but don't realize, that's also what makes him great. He's willing to bring the dog out, and take you out if need be.

And I think he steps it up to a new level when someone can bring it out in him. Postol's gonna bring the best out in him. I really do see Marvin Hagler in him.

Postol is really good, I think a lot of people here and underestimating just hard it is to beat his style.

I like crawford a lot, but against a bigger guy, who has a lot of experience, throws a lot of punches, is accurate, and has a chin?

I dunno if Crawford can win this one.

I hadn't thought about that but I'll agree, he has that Haggler-like tendency to stand and get the better of exchanges, even if it means getting hit.

Postol wins this one, I hope they don't rob him on the cards.

That win is over hyped

Crawford has adapted in his last 3 fights as the fights have progressed. He turns it on around the 6th and by the 8th or so, the opponent is done. Postol looks like a very good boxer but I think his ability will only bring out the best in Crawford. Bud by stoppage in the 10th round.
