I think this fight is significantly closer as most people seem to realise.

I guess I should find a fight involving Indongo before the fight tonight so I can have a halfway educated prediction in it. Never seen this dude fight. Haven't been following the sport as closely over the past few years.

He's solid, might win a round or two before he gets battered down.

I just watched his Ko of Troyanovsky and highlights of the Burns fight. He definitely looks scrappy. Comes in a bit wide and kinda lunges in with his punches. But, he is the taller guy and a southpaw. Should be interesting in seeing how Crawford deals with being the shorter guy. Not sure I've seen him in that situation yet. Looking forward to it.

I know Postol was taller, but orthodox if I remember right. Crawford will handle it well. He has a pretty long reach and good footwork.

Apparently Dillian Whyte smashed Malcolm Tann dropping him 4 times in 3 rounds, and getting the stoppage in the 3rd. I expected he'd stop him in the 1st or 2nd honestly so it took a little longer than I thought

Shakur Stevenson doesn't appear to have any pop at all

Teddy Atlas being pretty cringeworthy in my opinion. I feel like he's purposely trying to clash with Ward

Teddy just thinks he knows everything

Can't wait for Crawford/Indongo but...

...and I hate to be negative...

Boxing *really* needs to work on it's product. Get Teddy Atlas out of there, now. He is TERRIBLE. Something as simple as announcers that don't suck would improve this card 1,000%

The televised undercard fights have been poor too, Reed bored the arse off me. Whyte' fight was just bizarre too.

The Stevenson fight sucked, Gvodzyk fight is starting well but I don't expect it to go long. But my goodness is it really that hard to get announcers that speak understandable English and don't constantly try and start fights with co-announcers while simultaneously crapping all over the product?

Gvozdyk is patting a lot. It looks like he wants to get a few rounds under his belt.

Another absolutely god awful undercard.

Ward would beat Gvodzyk in ridiculously easy fashion.

My wife just asked if anyone has thrown a punch yet tonight...not a good sign.

Ahh, Reed has already been on? That's a relief. Wasn't listed on Boxrec and was worried there was another 12 rounds before the main event.

No, Crawford is next.

Be glad you missed Reed. Boring fight.

Barrera would beat him too imo

Well i stayed up to watch Lomachenko a couple of weeks back on yhe basis i think he's #1, but it was hardly worth it.
I think Indongo has even a 1 in 10 chance i could be convinced.

I give The Indongo about a 15% chance. He is tall, long, southpaw, and more awkward than Postol. He has good enough pop to buzz Hitman Jr if he lands. If that happens early, it makes a number of scenarios more possible.

I'll stay up if i'm not too tired after a few lagers. I get extra grumpy on sundays if i've had 3 hours sleep due to a shitt fight.

Here we go then. 4.25am, small wager on bud inside the distance

Great ring entrance for Crawford...a black fighter from a mostly white town with mostly white fans!!
