Crawford vs Postol: Final Predictions

Two best junior welters in the world fighting next Sat. Who wins?

I think TC's gonna stop him. Postol doesn't have the best of chins. Crawford, unlike Matty Ice, will find that suspect chin consistently.

I think Postol's in the fight for about 5 rounds, but I think at some point Crawford's gonna put a real hurtin on him. Crawford TKO 9.

 

Crawford is better imo, and should win. But it will be interesting to see how he deals with Postol lenght and classical skillset.

 

Crawford by decision, IMO... I think it takes him a while to adjust to Postol

 

:laugh100:

 

I'll take Postol to go postal.

Postol by split decision.

 

Postol probably cannot win a decision against one of the very few Elite American boxers out there.

Not in the USA at least.

Black Records Matter!!!

 

I think TC's gonna win easier than the rest of yall seem to be expecting.

There's a HUGE difference between Aydin/Matthysse and Crawford in terms of speed and ability. Crawford doesn't have the raw power of Matty Ice, but he's a lot quicker and more accurate and will landing on Postol with much more regularity. And everytime I've seen Postol caught flush, he seems stunned.

 

By rights Crawford should stop him and we should be demanding a clear-cut, dominant performance from him.

 

Probably a penis joke, but i dont get it

 

this fight will enhance Ricky Burns legacy

 

Crawford in a tougher than expected match. Split decision. The height and reach advantage will upset his timing and keep him on the outside more than he's used to.

Postol isn't particularly fast and I'd count on him looking to time Crawford coming in and hurt him a few times. Crawford gets lazy and gets caught from time to time...I can see Viktor taking advantage of that. Patiently jabbing then looking to time him.

Should be a good scrap. Could be similar to Mosley vs Forrest.

 

Terrence The Cable Guy is from Nebraska so that minimizes his blackness.

 

Omaha aint exactly Lincoln, nebraska

 

It's the "Choking Hick" aka the Superbowl champion QB's favorite city.

 

you mean the worst QB ever to win a super bowl, statistically ?

 

Crawford seems fairly easy to hit. It'll be interesting to see how Crawford takes a right hand with leverage on it. Unless Postol can wobble him good and consistently I think Crawford stops him late.

 

Yeah, Crawford ain't exactly a prime Benitez. He definitely does get hit a decent amount, and Postol has the most pop outta anyone he's faced, which makes this fight very compelling.

 

crawford -350 is pretty wide

 

i think crawford will win with his better handspeed. but as it happens when good fighters face other good fighters, it will not be easy. glad these guys are fighting. just wish it didn't have to be on ppv. yes neil. i know it is because of money.

 

Crawford via UD.

He'll drop Postol sometime late in the fight. It's a back and forth boxing match early but Crawford will turn up the aggression in the 2nd half of the fight and he'll put a hurting on Postol.

 

arum said not only is it about money but a lack of HBO dates

 

Crawford - 140
Postol - 139.5

 

is there anything decent on the undercard?

 

oscar valdez is an excellent prospect who will win his first title.

chia santana vs jose benavidez will probably be the best fight on the card

 

I really like the matchup and it could be a classic. I can see this being competitive throughout.

 

Its a joke that this fight is PPV.

 

Pac is agreeing to fight Crawford in November provided he gets passed Postol

 

If that's the case they should've worked it into the promotion.

 

This Santana guy says something "BEZ" everytime he throws a punch... BEZ BEZ BEZ BEZ!!

Fucking irritating

 

Benavidez a lot more snap on the punches... Santana keeps his head still and downward, no movement, poor defense... He makes Micky Ward look like Marlon Starling
