No joke, Roach is starting to get the butterflies already.

Roach can hope all he wants...
Doesn't change the fact that the scorecards have already been filled in long before this fight happens...

Postol will most likely ko this hype job bum anyway...

You trying to put some points on the fight? 5 trillion?

"Don't start that BS already Roach!"

Why? international fighters get shafted in the U.S. all the time. Look at all wards fights, especially Kessler. He would have been Dq'd in any other nation for headbutting that much.

Roach has all the right to be concerned.

No doubt about it, the officials will do all they can to help Crawford win in his home country.

Arum values Crawford more, I don't know why he even signs East European boxers, he just ruins them with inactivity and poor opposition.

In contrast, Haymon and DiBella are doing an excellent job for their East European boxers like Khytrov and Deveryanchenko. Similarly, Main Events did an excellent job withr Kovalev, as K-2 did with Golovkin.

How is it B.S. exactly?
Bias does exist in favour of American athletes are you willing to deny that I mean me as a Brit I can even stand up and admit plenty of times we've gave unfair scores to our home fighter that didn't deserve it.
Terence Crawford has his 0, he is American and he has a good amateur record similar to Andre Ward and we all know how lenient the referee was when Ward clinched and headbutted his way to a disgraceful win over Kessler.

Wouldn't be surprised it happens a lot in the US and If the Kovalev fight with Ward fight is close you can bet your ass off that Ward will get a wide decision victory.

Remember the Ricky Burns fight with Figueroa there are so many damn awful examples of bad bias and fixing in the sport, Postol will need to go for the kill.

No joke, Roach is starting to get the butterflies already.

He's already trying to work the boxing fans into believing that if Postol loses a dicission he was robbed.
