I think Crawford has this fight in the bag. We really only seen Postol out box opponenets. Crawford can not only do more but he can do it in two different stances. I think he might not win by knockout but I think he is gonna touch this guy with alot of power punches.

Saturday, July 23, Bloody Elbow presents fight coverage of Terence Crawford vs. Viktor Postol. HBO Boxing PPV Crawford vs. Postol airs live on PPV this Saturday, July 23 with a fight time of 9:00 p.m. ET / 6:00 p.m. PT. Bloody Elbow will have live fight coverage, including results and discussion.

This is an interesting fight that has produced some decidedly mixed feelings. On the one hand, if you look at it solely in terms of matchmaking, it's an excellent fight. Crawford is an undefeated two division champion. He's constantly rising up the pound for pound ranks, and is seen by many to be a superstar in the making. Postol is also an undefeated champion, making this a legitimate unification fight, and one of the best matched fights of the year. But it's also not a PPV fight, as neither man is a draw, and fans have questioned being asked to pay for a fight that, while great, does not include a major superstar. It will be interesting to see how many tune in, and how many choose to skip out.


The rest of the PPV card is fine, if not earth-shattering. Highlights are Oscar Valdez, who is a good fighter in the stacked Featherweight division; and Oleksandr Gvozdyk, an undefeated Light Heavyweight with the potential to make some real waves in that division.

Join us here at Bloody Elbow for Crawford vs. Postol results, discussion, and live fight coverage this Saturday, July 23.

Did HBO really turn down this fight or is that the line Arum is throwing out there? It makes no sense why they would not show this fight as a non-PPV telecast considering the matchups they've featured this year.
