Comments Thread For: Crawford Senses Fear: Postol Refused To Look Me in The Eyes

[PoserExposer]

The guy has to look down on you for Pete's sake! The whole weigh on psychology doesn't work with everyone bud. I can't see that Postol jab not finding its way either stance Bud fights.

I wouldn't take that as a sign of intimidation. When I fought as an amateur, I never looked in my opponents eyes, I just looked at his chin. I don't care about the look in your eyes, the chin is my target.

Rigo didn't look Donaire in the eyes either, how'd that turn out?

This is the same guy that repo'd his own car from the body shop and broke the lift in the process. I think Crawford is part of the future of boxing, but at this point I don't expect him to say anything particularly clever.

crawford looked like he was on drugs, reminded me of whitaker in his later years

Or postol can just box from the outside using his longer reach.

why will postol mix it up with someone shorter in height and reach?

He almost has to because he doesn't want to give the judges the impression that he doesn't want to win the fight by constantly backing up and staying on the outside.

While some judges do prefer the clean effective punching criteria, others however do not. They prefer the fighter who is giving the impression, that wants to win the fight the most, by constantly moving forward with effective aggressiveness and harder punching.

Constant moving and fighting off the back foot in my judgement is too risky of strategy for Postol and it could end up costing him a very close fight on the official Las Vegas judges scorecards if he is not careful.

There must be countless cases where they guy who 'looks nervous' or 'avoids eye contact' beats up the other guy.

The weigh-in really is heaven for body language experts

My interpretation would be Crawford wanted the eye contact because he has that mean streak and that's his demeanor. Postol is cool, calculating and professional so he's not trying to get into that and he's not trying to give Crawford what he wants.

Just put him on Ignore List.
Place is tons of times better without his shit posts around

I dont put anyone on ignore. Not my cup of tea.

I noticed what Crawford is saying while watching the weighin video. Postol kept clinching his jaw looking at Crawford's nose and mouth area then he turned away very quickly while Crawford continued to stare right through him as he smiled.

Bud is going to go after him and punish him. This should be a great fight, just hope Postol doesn't get stopped after a few rounds.

Bet the house on Postol, for NSB's resident imbecile has made his prediction
