    Postol is still 3-1 with the bookies. Get on it.

    Big round seven for Postol. Taylor was hurt by a series of shots and the ref did him a favour to buy him recovery time.

    Got him at fives after your post about him going off at sevens. I have Taylor behind still.

    Being generous, and accepting there might be some hometown judging, they are probably even through eight. This has been a good watch.

    Crawford's so called meaningless domination of Postol looking better right now.

    Postol taking Taylor to school inside. Making him miss and hitting him with uppercuts loads. Taylor landing some snappy hooks from the outside in response, from both hands. Postol taking them well. Good round of action.

    Postol down from a big left cross in the 10th. Bell comes at a good time for him.

    That puts Taylor ahead going into the 11th. Postol looks 34 years old all of a sudden.

    Irish is spot on. This is a firefight now and Taylor has been hit with loads. Postol's lack of pop will cost him the fight.

    Sounds like an excellent fight. Hope it's on YouTube later.

    Postol wins the eleventh for me. Caught Taylor with some beautiful combinations but not enough to hurt Taylor. This is close going to the last.

    Good last round. Good fight, both men deserve credit. I reckon Taylor by a couple of points. The KD probably wins it for him.

    117-110
    119-109

    Taylor UD

    Ludicrous wide cards. Not even Taylor believed those cards.

    Terrible cards. Hearn-esque cards. Even the biased UK comms were shocked by those scores.

    Taylor got hit a lot. Postol bossed it inside, landing lots of uppercuts and body shots. Forget the ridiculous scorecards, that was a closely contested bout and Taylor was in bother more than once.

    McGuighan doing an interview, admitting from the off that the cards were far too wide.

    Shane McGuighan admitting he had Taylor winning by two, there. Barry needs to get his corrupt judges better in check. That sort of silliness makes them all look daft.

    Shame McGuigan and Barry McBlowhard are daft Irish cunts who need to stay off TV.

    Horn is a complete bum. Truly a scrub with nothing going for him.

    Postol is a solid fighter, and at 34 and inactive, is probably now past it.

    Wonder how it would have gone down had Postol not pulled out of the Prograis fight in March.

    One things for sure, he would have done better than Indongo did.

    So is this it for Postol? Has he been exposed?

    Well, he still has win over Mathysse and it sounds like he barely lost to Taylor, if at all. And we don't really know how good Taylor is. So I'd say, "no."

    Taylor is now Ramirez's mandatory. Will Arum and Ramirez take that fight?

    It was written on the wall that Postol is an euro bum.

    He's not completely useless, but he's aslso far from a good fighter
