Comments Thread For: Crawford: Postol Did NOT Want To Fight or Exchange, He Ran

[r1onnie2]

When did moving become running???? Crawford schooled him, Postol was clueless, he did not know how to cut the ring off whatsoever.

IDK, I'm still trying to figure that out. Everybody wants to see a KO and think a fighter should stand in the middle of the ring and trade punches until someone goes to sleep.

It didn't look good for both fighters. Moving forward without throwing anything is useless, and running all night without any intention of stopping for a while and engage is just as useless.

It was like Rigo getting booed and decided to chase Agbeko in the later rounds. Even then he was not throwing anything. He's still waiting for Agbeko to throw something so he could counter. At least the fight was not on PPV.

Crawford outspeed him in two ways, one he was just physically faster which is hard to deal with in an of itself and allowed him to counter as he pleased as it was like Postal was in slow motion compared to him.

Crawford was also quicker in thought and put his plans into action so much faster that Postal had no hope in any sort of boxing exchange.

What Postal needed to do was go physical and maul, but while he clinches he really is not the physical rough sort that could use the clinching to make the fight rough and tumble perhaps throwing Crawford off his game. Fighting as timid as he did after he started to taste Crawford's power he would have got taken out or knocked down a bunch if he played the fight that way.

I think Postal is going to be showing the effects of this fight mentally long after the physical wounds heal because he got broken in two pieces over Crawford's knee mentally speaking.
