    I've not seen much of Postol. Any fights I should make sure to see before this one?

      Postol will give him some problems early on but Matthysse will wear him down.
      Postol is an awkward boxer with imo a very boring style, I hope Matthysse takes this, he should and I think he will.
      Postol is like a mini Wlad, the look is similar, the boring style is similar, the difference is Postol isn't as skilled and hasn't got Wlad's power P4P wise.

      Matthysse TKO/KO

        Basically this.


        Postol could give Lucas some problems, but I think Lucas will stop him late also.

          Great fight, hard to call. Postol has got skill and a high work rate, if it goes the distance I think he might get the decision. It's a 50-50 fight though.

            I dunno how good Postol's chin is so I'll take Matthysse via decision.

            Considering Postol's lack of power, Matthysse should invest on the body this time around unlike in the Ruslan fight.

              I like Postol, it's a good fight. I'd take Lucas to win via late stoppage.

                Terrible comparison? Postol is a boxer-puncher with a high-punch output. He throws 3-4 punch combinations off a long jab.

                Decent pop, decent speed...

                  His KO ratio isnt that good though. I think the Machine wins this one by KO, easier fight than Provodnikov IMO.

                    I like Lucas more but Postal is winning this by decision. He's too smart to get lulled into Matthysse's game and Lucas seems to be slowing just a little.
