Official Lucas Matthysse vs Viktor Postol Fight Prediction/Discussion Thread

[joesaiditstrue]

anybody know Postol's arm length or reach? can't find **** on google

Lucas had no problems w/ Peterson's reach (72", same as floyd mayweather)

I don't think he'll have any issues w/ Postol's reach, it'll be his volume more than anything else

and height rarely ever matters

175cm reach.

Edit: Boxrec is bugging its around 170-173

I remeber Aydin nearly had Postol out of their in their bout early on, Aydin is nowhere near the fighter Matthysse is and if Postol stays open for the shots Aydin connected... it will be a short night for him.

175cm reach.

Edit: Boxrec is bugging its around 170-173

so he's 180cm tall and 170-173cm reach? most people generally have a wingspan equivalent of their height, so he's below average in that respect

so his reach is being overplayed by the boxing media/forum tards, that makes his reach smaller than Lucas' of 69" (173cm = 68")

can you post a link showing where you found his reach info?

edit: i found this site https://ultimatemixedmartialartsblog...-selcuk-aydin/

says Postol has a 2" arm length advantage over Aydin which would put Postol at 67" (170cm)

So Lucas actually has the arm length advantage in this fight, though not sure about actual reach (armpit to fist)

Reach really doesn't mean much.

Arm length is what matters

[joesaiditstrue]

Reach really doesn't mean much.

Arm length is what matters

depends on the fighters stance

if they fight like Ruslan, squared up, then arm-length (armpit to fist) matters more
if they fight lead foot forward, then reach matters because you're effectively using your shoulder-width to keep your chin further back

so in this fight, Postol's "reach" is what we need to measure since he uses a "boxers" stance

this assumes 173cm is accurate

Its on on his Boxrec page -- check the tale of the tape (next to the bell icon) ; you get different results thats why I said its not reliable at this moment.I think you got the right idea moreorless.

went through all of postol's fights, his reach isn't listed on any of the bell or tape links on boxrec

i will say this though, postol's shoulders are narrow as **** so his arms might be pretty long but his "reach" might be smaller than matthysse's since Lucas has broader shoulders

More data was being DL however its bugging bad script I guess.You get different result in other matchups.

RTV – Postol is a teammate and countryman of Provodnikov – naturally, he’ll be looking to gain revenge for his friend.

Poor show by Ring.
