    Postol is a better boxer than anyone Garcia has beat. Put Garcia in with him next and he probably takes back to back losses. Postol's best weapon is his jab and Garcia would have no answer for it just like he didn't vs Spence on top of Postol having a height and reach advantage just like Spence. We both know Garcia wouldn't fight Postol or any of the current elite at 140.

      Postol is a really good fighter, that was a good win for Crawford. But let's not act like Postol is an elite P4P type of fighter. That poster was dogging Mikey saying he is overrated since he hasn't beaten any P4P type of fighter. Is Postol that?

      And Garcia vs Postol would be good, but Garcia is just flat out better. People are really going to act like Garcia is a bum just because Spence had his way with him, huh?

        Ive seen Garcia get tagged up by Lipinets who is not a skilled fighter. He is a crude face first brawler that lacks power. I'm not impressed with Garcia. As a matter of fact Garcia has never fought anyone that I consider a good fighter. Just like you acknowledged Postol please name me someone Garcia beat that you considered to be skilled.

          As skilled of a boxer as Postol? Probably no one, but Postol isn't a great fighter himself. If you want to say you saw Mikey get tagged by Lipinets, cool. Did you see Postol in a very tight fight against Hank f'n Lundy in a HS boxing gym? Again though, Postol is a good fighter, never said otherwise. Crawford's best win to date.

            Lundy is a much better boxer than crude Lipinets. He lacks durability but his skill level is higher. There is a reason Garcia has never cleaned out a division or beat the best fighter in any division he has ever campaigned.

              Lundy is a solid boxer, but the point is stop making it look like a fighter can't get touched up or hit.

              Your opinion is fine though. Obviously I disagree and I'd confidently take Garcia over Postol.

              Losing to Spence isn't going to make me change my opinion of Garcia.

                I've never seen Crawford get touched up by anyone like that especially not some face first brawler. See his fights with Beltran, Molina and Horn for example of this.

                  When did I say Mikey is better than Crawford? Where are you taking this conversation?

                  And Crawford got touched up in the early going against Dulorme/Gambao. Two quick handed boxers, no shame in that. Crawford is undeniably super skilled, but he's not no damn Mayweather defensively. He can be touched, just good luck touching him after the 6th round.

                    I kinda agree with this one now. I noticed that this guy was carefully matched early in his career (Top Rank style to build a prospect) that he never fought world level opponents in his 1st 30 fights. Suddenly, he becomes a 4 division champ after few number of fights and never seemed to have fought any notable opponent along the way (Lopez, Salido, and Broner only comes to mind). Suddenly, people try to make him out like some kind of elite maybe because he's some kind of undefeated who won several belts.

                    His fight with Spence only showed that his conservative style is only good to an extent that he can control his opponents in his comfortable distance. But when a calling is needed to perform his 'greatness', he's fighting style falls very short of achieving it. He may be a good fighter but not that good. Even against Spence, he should have done better.

                      You just do not like Mikey. He has not been exposed. He fought the best Welterweight in the world and lost. Spence is the WW champ that no other WW champ wants to fight. Did you notice how Pac was all for fighting Spence before the fight went off. After the fight he forgot how to speak English when asked if he wanted to fight Spence. Mikey needs to concentrate on Loma. If he really wants to fight a WW champ, try Pac.
