I feel like some boxing "fans" still don't understand counter punchers. Postol wasn't just being lazy or being dumb and not coming forward. He would get countered every time he tried to throw a punch. Boxers get hurt just like the rest of us. If you throw a jab, and you get countered, and it really hurts you, you will stop throwing that punch.
Floyd did it to almost all of his opponents. I get annoyed when people don't understand this concept. There is a reason a fighter stops throwing. Postol is a very good professional boxer. He isn't stupid. He obviously understood that coming forward and swarming was a bad idea.
