Lucas Matthysse v Viktor Postol

I'm taking Postol and have since the fight was 1st announced. I think he can withstand Matthysse's power and box to a UD win.

Dwyer riding hard with Postol. Says it won't be competitive lol

Time for a bump? if Garcia moves up, it could be Matthysse v Postol for the WBC

Postol has some skills but I'm not sold on his ability to take those bombs yet.

I like what I saw from Postol against Aydin, but I'm pretty sure that Matts would cook him. He isn't that fast, doesn't punch hard, lacks agility (stiff torso), doesn't use his height/reach to its full potential, and his body seems fragile. Aydin, with his short arms and respectable power, was able to wobble Aydin in the first round. I don't think Postol will be able to withstand Matt's brute force.

Viktor "Pew Pew" Postol could very well beat my man Matthysse, but it all depends if he can withstand the Machines attack, if he can then he UD's Matthysse, Mini Wlad does have great boxing skills that maybe just be abit out of Lucas's reach. But, as a fan of both I can't say who wins, just... May the best man win.

I don't think that Postol is that talented. He is a boring textbook fighter who relies very much on his jabs but he uses them as defense, somhow like Klitschko, just his power isn't enough to keep his opponents outside onl with his jabs (not like Klitschko) so he has to move around the ring as well. He would give problems to Garcia with his style, but IMO Matthysse cuts down the ring better and he definitely likes when he has to attack. Alexander and Judah IMO couldn't outbox Matthysse (I gave both fight to ucas, but I think I'm not the only one...) so I think neither Postol will be capable of that. Maybe Postol is better than the Judah of the last few year (and now) but I highly doubt that he is any level above of Alexander maximum the same level. On the other hand that's true that Matthysse couldn't knock out Judah and Alexander. But I think this time he would get the KO or if not, then a UD with 1-2 knockdown (I mean he knocks down Postol),

Great fight I think mini Wlad might be able to take a decision but Lucas has serious, serious firepower so you could never rule him out.

Probably the worst possible matchup for Matthysse at 140. Fans of his should hope for something else. Matchup's like this are the reason We like him :boxing: win or lose, his fights are highly charged and entertaining. I think He does have better skills than some suggest, but He seems to prefer wars. That said, He did show inprovements all round in his (short) recent fight.

I pick Lucas. His boxing skills are overlooked because his power

.................

I got Postol. Too sharp... but Boxing wins if this fight is made.

I like the look of Postol...good match-up this one. I'm going with Lucas though.

while danny stays ducking and cherrypicking matthysse has to take on a beast like this? i say lets do it if no danny fight, very exciting matchup imo

I'm really liking this Postol guy, very crisp boxing. The Machine just might be lacking a few screws and bolts against someone as smooth as Postol.

Probably the worst possible matchup for Matthysse at 140. Fans of his should hope for something else.

He says he's definitely going up o 147 just before 1.50

Yeah, one sec I'll look for the video so, he is vacating both titles then, the wba and wbc, wbo will fight for the other strap??

The fans win, that's a great fight. Two killers going at it. Postol would be very game. Stylistically the fight is interesting. btw Postol would KO Danny Garcia. Stylistically Postol is all wrong for Garcia.

he confirmed it? Yeah, one sec I'll look for the video
