    Postol never stepped sideways, as in, cut off the ring. He followed Crawford into traps and sucker punches. When he moved in, his left foot was never outside Crawford's right. Crawford didn't allow it.

          its not just crawfords speed its his power, defense, footwork. Crawford is a complete fighter. Anyone who thought Postol was going to win obviously hasn't been watching Crawford or Postol fight. Postol is a Danny Garcia/ Jessie Vargas type fighter which is a fighter that is well rounded and does everything pretty well but isn't really great at anything. Crawford has great power, speed, defense ect. I can't wait to see Crawford move up and see what he can do at 147. I don't see anyone at 147 giving him too many problems either. I think he wipes the floor with Keith Thurman, Kell Brook, and everyone else.

            This writer is shiat for claiming the fight was even early on. Truth is Postol didn't win a single round. Those judges who have Postol rounds are damn blind,, maybe Crawford was too fast for them too.

                  You didn't see round 3, right? Postol took that round clearly.

                    Lmaooo did you just compare bums like vargas and postol to DSG who would beat Crawford postol is not a threat as he only beat a bum in lucas who DSG been took the kids soul Crawford will stay at 140 and wait it out before going to 147 DSG will beat Crawford if they ever meet in a great fight but Crawford is too small and DSG is also a complete fighter but bigger and stronger and actually beat top guys
