Postol gets 20/20 hindsighted off of Crawford's best win list (or top 2 or 3 at least), but that was a very respectable & high level win that I don't believe should get discounted as much as it does just cuz Postol didn't put up the fight or give the level of competitiveness many expected. I remember a nice % of fans were saying Postol would beat Crawford.Comment

You're looking at it, I assume, from the stand point that Thurman and Brook handled him well that means Porter would probably lost. But there is a huge disparity between Crawford and Porter when it comes to Strength. And I believe that would be the difference makerComment

Cuz 1)I think Crawford's boxing IQ dances around Porter's & would be the main factor in him winning (I hadn't even considered the fights with Thurman & Brook in regards to who wins really & I'd disagree either guy "handled" Porter cuz both fights were competitive).
2)I don't think Crawford is stronger than Porter, but 3)I do think that Crawford punches harder, if not just more effectively which results in more power, or equally although primarily I don't think strength would even be a primary deciding factor in this theorized fight.Comment

Wait so you're saying Crawford loses to Porter? Or that Crawford is physically stronger than Porter? Or just punches harder?

Shawn Porter is Marcos Madianna on steroids plus he is a better boxer. Crawford may be more skilled but Porter is bigger and stronger. Picture the Floyd vs Madianna but a super sayned version of Madianna against a smaller version of Floyd without the defense. I favor Porter 55/45. In order to dominate higher weights, you have to either have exceptional defense, speed, or power. Crawford has neither. People forget that size and strength matter.
Regardless about that interesting comparison I think a fight between Porter & Crawford isn't gonna be decided on size. I don't think Crawford is small enough or weaker enough nor Porter big enough or stronger enough that the outcome gets decided on it.
I think Porter, while a better athlete + the stronger of the two is higher ineffective with his over aggression far too often to not get outmaneuvered & outlanded by the smarter Crawford. I'd probably consider Crawford a 65/35, 70/30 favorite if I were to break it down in percentages.Comment

Interesting comparison with Maidana & Porter. Idk if I'd fully agree or disagree with that. I can see why you are saying it doe. Outwardly Porter gots all the attributes to make one the better boxer of the two, BUT I think Maidana puts the attributes he has into a better more effective package.
