So who owns the lineage at 140

[Nay_Sayer]

Nothing,but postol has more claim to the lineage than anyone at 140. Broner just fought some unknown guy for a vacant belt, after coming off of a loss at 140. Crawford has yet to fight any real top contender at 140. That leaves postol,who went into the fight as an underdog,and thoroughly outboxed and ko'd arguably the top fighter in the division. Just set up crawford-postol,and we'll find out who the real top dog it.

Broner is undefeated @ 140lbs..

[Nay_Sayer]

Apart from winning his old belt, which Broner also did, Postol chased the Lineal champ to 147 lbs.

This is a flat out lie. it's well documented that Garcia has been having issues with making 140 for some time now...

Typo,I meant 147....or technically 144....Still,he just came off a loss,dropped down a weight class,and was handed a fight for a vacant belt,against a guy who hadn't fought in about a year and a half.

This lineage resumes after one of the champions own more than 50% of the belts.

LOL..no it doesnt

What kinda of tournament would you suggest Larry? I got postol,Crawford,broner,and herrera. Wanna throw any more names in there?

Understood - but losing a fight @ welterweight doesn't affect Broner's standing in the 140lb division.

I say let the top 10 fight it out there is not 1 superior fighter at 140,but lots of talent

The two best 140 pounders need to fight we need to get an undisputed champion so all this mess stops

Postol was #7 when he beat Matthysse, now let's see where he moves up and go from there. But he is not Ring or Lineal yet.
