Comments Thread For: WBC Confirms Amir Imam in Line For Viktor Postol Shot

[Cuban Linx]

If there's any passing of the torch fight to be planned it'll be between Pacquiao and Crawford and not Postol.

Crawford can sell out venues in his hometown, he's 3 years younger, he's more charismatic and he's already been awarded fighter of the year.

who's this writer????...."Danny Garcia was making voluntarily defenses above the weight limit", so if they're above the weight limit of 140 it means they were fighting for a 140 title??? what a joke

Imam is like 5"10 and has a longer reach than Postol an hits hard, it will be a tough fight.

Imam and Postol are both 5' 10" -- with some 'body building' added, they may have been fought at 154, at least...

Imam hasn't faced anyone on this stage but based on the eye test, I wouldn't be surprised if he beat Postol

His skills are very good for someone his age and stage of his career

I would at least let him face a lower top ten guy first. or get to fight 20 when he gets the shot to get rounds in and better seasoning

Thats a good point.

140 is funny at present.

The more established guys, are not top fighters (Provo/Matthyse/Vargas)..... the newer guys look good, but are largely untested (Crawford/Postol/Imam/Benavidez)..... then you got more proven guys like Herrera/Broner to add to the mix.

Fun and games at 140, expect a lot of movement in the rankings over the next 12-18 months as things settle down.

Not a big Broner fan, but he could be the dark horse imo.
