    I'm higher on Hank Lundy than most people. I think he's a good fighter despite some losses.

    i like hank lundy as well. he's not a world class fighter, doe. he's athletic enough that he looks good in spots, but he comes up short at the world level.

        This is literally what I was going to say. Against better opponents with real power he'd get eaten alive, Provo and Matthysse would walk right through him.

          watched postol vs aydin again.


          aydin is f#cking awful. usually only throws one punch at a time, let postol turn him around like an amateur.

          postol doesn't look to have a good chin, but his style, height, and arm length will give guys problems. he reminds me a bit of miguel vasquez, only vasquez has zero power, and postol actually gets good leverage when he uses his knuckles.


          postol will be well suited to move quickly, and make his run at a world championship at 140 lbs. there aren't any big weltwerweights out there other than thurman and porter, but i think those two body him in particular.

            He has a good jab, I don't know if he beats Garcia but I don't think the fight happens.
            Danny's people need to make the fight with Lucas or Postol. Finicky boxing fans develop amnesia on a dime. I think he beats them both. Either way the quickest way to make people forget Herrera is by beating a well known fighter. Or in the case of Postol a hot fighter coming off of an impressive win.

              danny will beat matthysse again, but postol's heigt and willingness to step to the side will give danny issues.


              that said, if aydin is landing hte left hook at all, danny can, and very well may put him to sleep with the late left hook, AKA the garsh.

                I agree, Postol's height is an issue for Danny, who I think is about 5'7'' or 5'8'' but Danny shows he can adjust and after slow starts he normally starts timing his opponent. I reckon he'd stop Postol.

                  I can't lie,I was not impressed at all..It's not his fault tho,just not impressed by the opponent..Aydin has no balance no head movement and tbh is a really bad fighter..

                  Well let me take that back,he did score a KO over a fighter who had never been knockout before..I thought that was great for him and made me wanna see him again,against a better opponent of course..He's young and has time so let's see what's next for him..His performance was ok,I can't say i was really all that impressed,again doe..It had more to do with Aydin then himself so to say..

                    Danny punches with his opponents,something Aydin never(ever!!!!)does..Which is really frustrating to watch btw..Danny beats Postol and possibly knocks him out..

                      I still think Peterson is the fight for Garcia..
