LAS VEGAS -- Terence Crawford, already a two-division world titleholder and the 2014 fighter of the year, has been hailed by many as Americas next big boxing star.He went a long way toward living up to those lofty accolades after taking apart Viktor Postol in a masterful performance. Crawford won by unanimous decision and unified two junior welterweight world titles before 7,027 on Saturday night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.Crawford and Postol, both undefeated titleholders in their primes, were universally regarded as the two best 140-pounders in the world coming into the fight. With the victory, Crawford staked his indisputable claim to division supremacy and set himself up for much bigger business, possibly against Manny Pacquiao.Crawford, who scored two knockdowns in the fifth round, won going away on all three scorecards: 118-107, 118-107 and 117-108. ESPN.com also scored the fight 118-107 for Crawford, who figures to rise on the mythical pound-for-pound list with this performance.I just stick to what I know, boxing, Crawford said. Everybody kept saying I was running from him, but that wasnt true. I asked for the fight.I feel like I get better every fight. Viktor Postol is a great champion and he was dodged for a reason, but I aint the type to duck and dodge anyone.The victory was huge for Crawford (29-0, 20 KOs). Going into the bout, Top Rank promoter Bob Arum said the winner would be one of two leading candidates, along with welterweight titleholder Jessie Vargas (27-1, 10 KOs), to land a pay-per-view main event against Pacquiao, who is coming out of a brief retirement, on Nov. 5 at the Thomas & Mack Center.Postol had no answers for Crawford on Saturday.I thought it was a good fight between two technicians, but he was quicker than me, Postol said through a translator. He is one of the best fighters in the world. I just didnt have the answers for him.Freddie Roach, Postols trainer, said: He was just too fast for us. I was surprised how fast and how good he was. Im very impressed with his talent.Crawford took time to gloat over the win, praising his trainer, Brian McIntyre.Freddie Roach and Postol said that Freddie would outcoach my coach, but you tell em who got outcoached tonight, Crawford said.?Added McIntyre: The game plan was to keep Postols legs moving, and that took away his jab and right hand. And they told me I wasnt on Freddie Roachs level. ... I had the better fighter.The fight began slowly as both men looked to get a sense of each other. But Postol, who is 5-foot-11 and held a 3-inch height advantage, appeared to tower over Crawford, who struggled to find his range early. Crawford, 28, of Omaha, Nebraska, fired plenty of jabs, but virtually all of them missed because he could not get inside the longer Postol.After three technical rounds, the action heated up in the fourth, when Crawford seemed to hurt Postol, 32, of Ukraine, with a hard left hand to the head, bringing to life the pro-Crawford crowd, which began to chant, Omaha! Omaha!Crawford, who retained his title for the third time, appeared to have figured out Postol by the fifth round. He landed a left hand that forced Postol (28-1, 12 KOs) to touch the mat with his right knee for a knockdown. Later in the round, Crawford landed a powerful left hand that sent him into the ropes and forced him to touch his gloves to the mat to keep his balance; referee Tony Weeks called another knockdown.After the round, McIntyre told Crawford, He aint got no legs no more, he aint got no legs after that knockdown.The fifth round was the turning point of the fight. Before that round, all three judges had the fight 38-38. Then Crawford won all but one round on one card the rest of the fight.I caught my rhythm and I knew everything I would do from there on (after the fifth round), Crawford said. Hes the type of fighter that has to be set to punch, so I kept his feet moving, kept him off balance. Every time I connect with a solid shot, I was hurting him.Crawford, who switched from right-handed to southpaw early in the fight, rocked Postol with a left hand in the sixth round -- another clear round Crawford won.I went southpaw and took his jab away, Crawford said. I jabbed over his jab. My right hand caught his jab.Crawford continued to dominate at the start of the eighth round, when he landed a clean right hand to drive Postol back. Later in the round, he knocked Postol off balance with a hard jab and then landed another flurry of shots, including a left hand, that nearly dropped him.Crawford nearly dropped Postol again in the ninth round with a left hand.?A frustrated Postol, who made $675,000, resorted to rabbit punching in the 11th round. He nailed Crawford with a right hand behind the head, for which Postol was penalized one point, merely adding to Crawfords overwhelming advantage.As Crawford, who earned $1.3 million, toyed with Postol in the 12th round, he taunted him, stuck his tongue out and also lashed him with hard punches, eliciting roars from the crowd as the fight ended. HBO will replay the pay-per-view fight next Saturday at 10:15 p.m. ET/PT.Crawford was going for a knockout in the final round as he strafed Postol, who knocked out Lucas Matthysse in the 10th round to win a vacant title in a big upset in October and was making his first defense.He told me come on, so I said, Lets go and he retreated, Crawford said.After the fight, talk quickly turned to the possible showdown with Pacquiao (58-6-2, 38 KOs), the Filipino great and boxings only eight-division titleholder.If Bob Arum wants that fight and my coaches want that fight, thats something well talk about later, Crawford said. I let my coaches handle that. I am a fighter and I will fight anybody. Im happy and Im about to go on vacation. We not worried about Manny Pacquiao right now.But Crawford made one thing clear -- if the fight happens, he will insist that Pacquiao, who has been fighting as a welterweight for years, come down in weight to challenge him for his title belts at junior welterweight.It will be at 140, Crawford said.

New Zealand 28 for 0 trail India 557 for 5 dec (Kohli 211, Rahane 188, Rohit 51*) by 529 runsScorecard and ball-by-ball detailsVirat Kohli scored his second Test double-hundred and Ajinkya Rahane made 188 before India declared their first innings at 557 for 5 and left New Zealand a tricky nine overs to bat at the end of day two. They managed to survive this period unscathed, as Tom Latham and an aggressive Martin Guptill took them to 28 for 0 at stumps.Kohli and Rahane added 365, Indias highest partnership for the fourth wicket, and subjected New Zealand to three wicketless sessions before Jeetan Patel finally broke through in the first over after tea. Going on the back foot to a quickish length ball, Kohli was lbw trying to work the ball into the leg side.Rahane played his shots as India looked to score quick runs before declaring, hitting Patel and Mitchell Santner for three fours in five overs, before falling to another aggressive shot when he was within sight of a maiden double-ton, nicking to the wicketkeeper while trying to drive Trent Boult away from his body.Rohit Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja - promoted ahead of R Ashwin and Wriddhiman Saha - then hustled 53 in 9.5 overs before Kohli called them in. In what turned out to be the penultimate over of their innings, umpire Bruce Oxenford penalised Jadeja for running on the danger area of the pitch, awarding New Zealand five penalty runs. Jadeja had already received a caution and a warning.The pitch, fairly benign on day one, continued to belie its appearance, the multitude of cracks on its surface causing the batsmen only the occasional bit of discomfort, usually when the ball kept low. Kohli nearly played on when he went back to defend one such ball from Patel, early in the day: it hit the toe-end of his bat, then the ground, and then bounced over the stumps. Later in the morning session, Rahane jammed his bat down hurriedly to keep out another ankle-high Patel shooter. Otherwise, there was little in either the bowling or the pitch to worry Kohli and Rahane.Kohli, who scored 200 against West Indies in July, in Antigua, became the first Indian to make two double-hundreds as captain. He also became the first Indian since Sachin Tendulkar in 2010 to score two double-tons in a year. He carried on batting with the same understated authority he had displayed on day one, flowing smoothly along and giving New Zealand no glimpse of a way past him. He hit ten of his 20 fours on day two, including a couple of gorgeous drives down the ground - one, shortly after lunch, off James Neesham, bisected thhe tiniest of gaps between short midwicket and mid-on - and even a delicate reverse-dab off Santner that sped to the boundary to the left of backward point.ddddddddddddThere was a sense of inevitability about Kohlis runs. Three times this series, he has been out to ambitious shots, and in this innings stayed well within self-imposed limits of strokeplay. He only hit one boundary across the line of a full ball, when he was already past 150 and took the liberty of muscling Santner into the gap between deep square leg and long-on. He almost never lofted the ball.That option was left to Rahane, who used his feet superbly to the spinners, either to loft Santner inside-out or to give himself a bit of swinging room and flat-bat Patel back over his head. He played the chip over the covers even against the seamers, bringing up his 150 with that shot, off Neesham. These were the shots of a batsman enjoying himself after a hard struggle to his century. In the morning session, New Zealands fast bowlers, as they had done through day one, peppered Rahane with the short ball, looking to exploit the uncertain pace and bounce of the Holkar Stadium pitch to plant indecision in the batsmans head.Rahane ducked under the first one he faced in the morning, against Henry, and pulled the next one, at the start of his next over, to the square-leg boundary, closing his eyes momentarily but rolling his wrists nicely over the head-high ball to keep it down. Then, two balls later, Henry went around the wicket. Rahane swayed away to account for the angle across him, but it jagged back in off the pitch, followed him, and hit the side of his helmet, just over his ear.The bowler and New Zealands fielders came to Rahane to check on his health, but that didnt mean the bouncer barrage would end. Henry bowled another the very next ball, and Rahane top-edged a hook towards fine leg.Given the discomfort this tactic was causing Rahane, Williamson delayed the reintroduction of the left-arm spinner Santner, who had been ready to come on at the start of the 100th over. Henry bowled another instead - the fifth of his morning spell - and then gave way to Boult.By then, though, Rahane had moved to 99, and got to his hundred off Boults first ball, a short one down the leg side that he paddled down to fine leg. This was perhaps the least fluent of his eight Test hundreds, but perhaps also one of the most satisfying, given how much discomfort he had overcome.
