Postol has reach on him and high boxing i.q. (see what happened 5-2-15) against an older fighter. Postal and Crawford will be Arum's new priority now. And pac will get sacrificed to either one to build them up.
    Yeah, we saw what happened.........

      Possibly, Manny is faded, look at the Algieri fight.

        Remember when you guys used to say, "It's just sparring". SEE HOW THAT WORKS
        Please, there is already a link to a video about how Pac broke Postol's nose in sparring. Algieri rocked Khan all around the ring and if he can get to Khan, Pac would murder him. If Pac fights Khan, I'll bet you 200Q that Pac whoops his ass, how does that sound?

          If i had that much to bet I would, because I believe Khan will beat manny if they ever fought. Manny hasnt had a ko in MANY years, and that seems to be what his fans hang their collective hats on. Khan will be faster and touching Manny enough to outpoint him, and all Manny can hope for is a ko. I will take that bet, let me get my money up, lol.

            Thank you.

            May your love of boxing out shine any favoritism for any boxer.
            May our sense of fairness in the ring be measured by the skills each warrior brings.
            May we all allow our favorite boxers the right to fail, and we still remain fans.

            Let's let deeds, and heart, not words or hype determine who the best man is.

            Let us never see color in the ring, except blue & red corners.

            Let us always be fair to each and every man who laces them up, and gives it his all. Win, lose or draw.

            In defeat no excuses, in victory no prideful boasts.

              I'm with Daggum on this. **** Postol's clinching ass. Boxing fans gets amnesia when a knockout happens, they forget what spoiled the fight for long stretches.

              I would hate to see Postol-Pac.

              Postol would make the fight disgusting with his ugly-ass style, he doesn't deserve to have the torch passed onto him.

              And no, I'm not a bitter Lucas fan. I'm sick to death of clinching become such a feature of fights. Notice how the fight improved immeasurably when Postol was told to stop grabbing for life?

                Three reason why Postol loses almost every round to Manny.

                1. Trainers do matter, no matter how much you think Roach isn't a good trainer he does have importance in the gym and in the corner. Against Manny he won't have Roach in his corner.

                2. Roach knows all of Postols strengths and weaknesses. And he'll expose them to Manny.

                3. Manny is simply in another class. Even pass prime he's still head and shoulders above majority of the 147 fighters.

                  you're assuming I think pac is still prime or something??? I had hope at some point that Pac still had the fire but since the Bradley 2 fight I was convinced he wasn't but he still has enough even now to dominate and totally shut out Lucas as well as Ko him... I knew that even before last night"he'd beat Garcia easy as well" and Postol...I know it was a half decent win but what has Lucas done to get people talking like he'd end Pac's career with a ko???

                  Pac didn't do much vs Mayweather but was never hurt and hurt Mayweather a couple times"one oif the best defnsive fighters ever

                  Lucas, Postol and gift Garcia are on a much lower level than these guys although championship material in their own right

                    Postol is a good fighter, but there are levels to this. Pac, assuming he hasn't lost much from the layoff, would beat him

                      hard to say. mayweather really made pacquiao looked like he aged overnight. i still think he has 2 more good fights under his belt. against postol, i have postol by split decision though i wont be surprised if pac gets matthysed.
