Huge step up in class for Taylor. I just hope it's not too early for him against an experienced fighter like Postol

I personally think Postol is on the slide.

From what I have seen of Taylor he is world class and I fully expect him to stop Postol late.

Your comment is mine. Postol could make things awkward for Josh who may get frustrated with Postol's reach. With more ring experience Josh could get round that problem but with only 12 fights exp, this is a brave gamble. We know that Josh is very good and he learns really fast so hopefully he'll work Postol out if things don't go his way. He beats Postol and Josh is gonna be huuuge.

Massive risk... This guy took Matthysse best shots and was completely outboxing him before the ko. Massive gamble, i would have waited for atleast another loss on Postols record before setting this up.

Nothing about joining the WBSS if he wins?

Hoping Postol upsets this apple cart...

I'm hoping Josh whoops him but I like your top 2 fave fighters - both would be in my top 5 or 10 as well.

Taylor is a serious body puncher and this will always keep him in the fight.
Big step up, from what I've seen of him he can win this fight
