He better be concerned, because Crawford tends to turn the entire fight around when he switches.

Exactly, stole the ****ing words right out of my mouth.

Am I the only one who thinks Postol is getting embarrassed come Saturday night?

... Crawford switches, but he doesn't shift...

I'd be a little surprised if that were to happen, though it's certainly possible. If either fighter is able to embarrass the other, it will be a sign of true greatness. I'd welcome that.

I love what I've seen from Crawford, but don't know that much about him pre-Gamboa. Has he fought anyone as tall and disciplined as Postol?

nah i think it will be one sided too, will see the difference between a very good fighter in postol versus potential P4P fighter in crawford

I think your right but am hoping for a competitive fight

Crawford isn't really a switch hitter. He starts out as an orthodox fighter, gets hit by a few shots, then switches up to southpaw. He stays in that stance for the rest of the fight.

Always prepare for a southpaw with Crawford. Always.
