Comments Thread For: Terence Crawford-Dierry Jean is Done For October 24

Maybe I'm talking out of my ass here, but I could see Crawford facing the winner of Postol-Matthysse after this fight.

I think he'll match him with Cueneca and say he's stopping him from beating 50-0

[Dean_Razorback]

matthysse isn;'t the monster people seem to think he is.

the guy went life and death with john molina and ruslan provodnikov

no, he didn't, he lost 2 rounds vs molina, watch the fight again. and he clearly beat provo. easier than bradley and algieri.

Maybe leaving Omaha would be a good start...just saying. They know you well in your hometown. Him, Broner, and Ward love staying in their backyards.

Wut. In broners last 13 fights only 3 were in Ohio

Maybe I'm talking out of my ass here, but I could see Crawford facing the winner of Postol-Matthysse after this fight.

Arum wouldn't allow him to fight Lucas. We all know he out boxes him easy but that punchers chance is too much to risk for arum

Dierry Jean sounds familiar, who did he fight recently?

He fought Lamon Paterson about a year ago. It was a pretty close fight. I think this will be an exciting matchup, since Dierry has really quick hands.

So the FotY last year has a pretty shit year this year...
smdh, Dulorme then Dierry Jean

it's not that bad, Dulorme was just an introduction to 140. Jean, on the other hand, is really nothing more than a stay-busy fight and it's too bad a better opponent couldn't be found. If they can get Crawford-Matthysse/Postol winner in 2016 that would be a very good, big fight for him.

[GMAN SUPREME]

I hope crawford isn't lactose intolerant.

[Mitchell Kane]

Not the kind of opponent you want to see for Crawford after Dulorme.

But it's getting late in the year and HBO has budget restrictions...and perhaps Jean came cheap.

[SCEN3RY]

do you think arum would put him in there with the winner of this fight? maybe postol if he gets the victory, matthysse might be too risky for crawford right now

Top Rank has options on Postol and they're currently doing Matthysse-Postol...it is a slightly different case, but I really don't think they say 'no' to Matthysse-Crawford if HBO is willing to pay well for it.

[bojangles1987]

Not a great fight, but an okay one. Jean isn't that bad.

We need to see Crawford step up to the big leagues at 140 after this, though.

That's right I knew he sounded familiar. Thanks
