    Crawford vs Postol was an extremely boring fight. No one wanted to engage in the entire fight. Both just want to counter. Postol being the challenger was obligated to do something. Even more so in the end because he was being tagged and Bud was accumulating points. And that exacerbated the losing situation for him.

    Not exactly a win to be proud of. It's boring as f****.

      Postol was a champ, ranked higher than Crawford, and with the same exact promotional company.

        It was a unification fight, but Crawford got the bigger name, bigger purse ($1.3 million).

        Postol ($675K) couldn't possibly advance beyond being a title holder if he woudn't challenge the disparity.

          IMO Crawford is obviously better than both Taylor and Ramirez.
          But dammit. Bringing up Crawfords fight against Postol pissed me off.
          I actually Paid to watch that snore fest.
          Crawford just moved and moved then moved some more.
          Arum had to rethink putting Crawford back on PPV after that mess.

            Was rooting for Ramirez but thought postol won. But to be fair Crawford has height and reach against postol while Ramirez is a smaller guy

              Bud's not a big guy at all though he kinda fights like he is, he has got pretty much the same reach as Postol though and a little more than Ramirez.

                Coulda swore bud was taller than Ramirez. But his reach definitely helped him which was my point
