Don't be surprised if Postol beats Matthysse

[joesaiditstrue]

This is in my opinion the worst possible style matchup for Matthysse, and will probably be a more difficult fight than the Garcia fight

I also think Postol beats Garcia, which is probably why Haymon had him duck that fight and just move up to 147 to fight the likes of Malignaggi and Guerrero

Postol is unknown to most fans, but that doesn't mean he isn't any good.
He also trains under Roach/Marvin and I'd have to be pretty naive to think they didnt learn anything about Lucas in the Ruslan fight

Postol has 3 inches of reach (probably about 1.5 - 2" of arm length), and 5 inches of height, he is pretty big for 140

He has more/less every possible physical advantage over Lucas except for Power, but his power is good enough to keep his opponent from being reckless

rooting for lucas but this will probably be the most difficult fight he's ever had in his pro career

I hope I'm wrong, since he's my current favorite active boxer

Postol will have to be better than he was against Aydin if he's gonna beat Matts.

That Postol shows up against Matthyse dude's literally getting laid out in the first.

Get ... Reaaaal.

[-MEGA-]

I wouldn't be

Highlight reel ko of postol coming up. He has no power and Lucas will walk right through him, he has nothing to worry about.

I'll be surprised if the ref wins this fight.
