“I think Terence Crawford will win easily,” Postol said. - He will stop Spence after six rounds, in the second part of the fight. The difference will be in speed. There is nothing Spence can do to Crawford that he hasn't seen before. Even if Spence gives him problems in the early rounds, Crawford will adapt and work better and I believe he will stop him."
Postol had a hard time keeping up with Crawford's speed and technique during their 12-round super lightweight unification bout in July 2016 in Las Vegas. Crawford sent Postol to the floor twice in the fifth round and defeated him by a wide margin on the judges' scorecards.
Tonight, Saturday, the 39-year-old Postol will fight for the first time since losing a 10th round TKO to Gary Antoine Russell (16-0, 16 KOs) in February 2022 at The Cosmopolitan. Postol (31-4, 12 KOs) will face Dominican southpaw Elvis Rodriguez (14-1-1, 12 KOs) in a 10-round welterweight bout at the Cosmopolitan Arena in Las Vegas.
