Re: I think Postol is going to beat Crawford
For everything Postal brings on the awkward front Crawford trumps with some very well rounded boxing from not one but both sides. The huge factor for me is a mental let down as Crawford has pretty much skyrocketed into the scene with voids opening around division. That in no way means its not earned and he in fact has top notch skill. I just don't like all of the "I want to be the next...I want to be the face of boxing...I want to be next superstar". His big draw at first was down to Earth approach, quite confidence. Stay humble and keep your head on straight..no need to try to over compensate and force what is already natural ability on the rise. That's how you run into dumb shots and have to dig out of a hole. Oh and he is massive for division.

You must hate American fighters because you always have to mention that a great fighter is American and that they are overrated because they are American . Crawford isn't at all a household name in the US. Nobody cares that he is American . He actually gets less recognition than he should IMO considering his skill level.
