    People did blast him for his clinching. And name a more impressive win on Crawford resume.

    I think Crawford has an overall better resume bc he beaten more guys "closer" to the top, but Postol has the overall most impressive win.

      He did get a lot of flack for clinching....People always have to make it about race come on bro... There will always be racist people but saying Postol didn't get flack for clinching is the same bs that people say about Wilder not being super popular because he's black. It's a load of shyt stop thinking so much about racism it's always going to exist but there's no point in focusing on it.

        Crawfords best win was midget Gamboa 2 weight classes removed from where he should've been fighting and he was out boxing Crawford. If it wasn't for Crawfords huge size advantage he would've lost.

          Gamboa wasn't outboxing Crawford. Gamboa might be the fastest fighter on the planet, regardless of size. And it took Crawford a few rounds to adjust to the speed. Then, he caught and dropped him. And then proceeded to break him down and dispose of him. Very similar to what Canelo did to Khan.

            I didn't give him any flack for the way he fought Matthysse. I thought for the most part, he fought a very intellegent fight. That said, he didn't get the flack that black fighters that move and hold get. Whether the people doing it are doing it consciously or subconsciously. It happens. No need to run away from the issue.

              Matthysse is a quitter and vastly overrated lacks heart-quits

              Little Lucas was far over-hyped for a short dwarf who occasionally throws a hard punch. Little Puke Luke quits too easy and gives up. Luke the Puke ain't fighting again after quitting against an average Postal. Send little Luke back to Oz and the yellow quitter road.
