Official Lucas Matthysse vs Viktor Postol Fight Prediction/Discussion Thread

[No Tomorrow]

I think Postol's height will work against him in this match-up. Lucas is pretty good at closing the distance and if he can shorten Postol's range then I think Postol might take some heavy blows repeatedly. Postol is definitely a live dog though. I just hope Lucas annihilates him

[Weebler I]

But he does make good points on this fight , Lucas has been sluggish and Im checking his record and I see that his last UD was in 2008 ( Ruslan was a MD) and he (Matthysse ) has never won a SD (lost two) therefore you can conclude that Postol will have at least one Judge in his favor should it go the distance if history repeats itself. I will be putting money on Postol @ +175 and I said this months ago.

Don't do it man!

I think Postol's body might be the initial target.

I think Postol's body might be the initial target.

It definitely should be, jabs to the chest, head movement, cut off Postol's movement quickly, work in some body combinations (especially against the ropes) fall in Postol's chest. If things like that are effective he can start working on feints and throw some hammers up stairs. I hope he does some like this because Postol has good movement and if Lucas can deflat Viktor's tires enough to make him more stationary then he can murder Postol upstairs with heavy power shots

Hopefully, whatever the outcome we get to see more of these two guys, I enjoy watching both.

Lol Ukraine aren't too fond of Russia either. Americans seem to have a problem differentiating europeans

Poor show by Ring.

if i'm not wrong in the video of the arrival is lucas the one saying they are both from the same country (provo and postol)

[Motofan]

Big fan of Lucas but I'm nervous about this one. Its going to be a tough fight for him, win or lose.

I need to do a bit more research on Postol before I declare a prediction, only seen him a few times. I know Matthysse very well as I've seen him many times, and I think he's a hell of a fighter and I hope he finally nabs a title.
