[sanatogen]

Postol gets the 12th just......but an even round maybe

[Master]

Very good fight both wanted it.

Those scores were too wide.

[armin]

"the best ref in the country" according to the commentators, wtf Id call ian john lewis as shitty a ref as fucking laurence cole jr wtf

[sanatogen]

Agreed, that was a toss into the bin comment re: "best ref in country..."

[sanatogen]

Judges Scorecards were rubbish.

Surely it was never that wide?

[armin]

119-108 bahahaha what fight were they watching....not saying wrong man won but postol wasn't winning that without 3 kds...but nah only germany has shit judges....

[Ron Swanson]

I'd call all 3 cards embarrassing. That was a close fight. Only saving grace is that the right man for the nod.

[Dia bando]

That was a good fight Pistol was a tough SOB Talyor won hell that should have been for a vacant title.
The scoring was a bit to wide a fight well worth watching Josh won a learning experience indeed.

[Hulk]

This kid must be something to beat Postol.

[sanatogen]

Taylor shows good movement, awareness, switch hitting, urgency at times and power.

Experience of fighting at this level is likely going to show him to to deploy all of that at the right times.

[Dark Lord Al]

Josh looked like the best prospect in Britain.
