The powers that be never seemed interested in the fight from the start. HBO is just happy to keep showing what they're being given.

This pretty much seems to be the case.

Why are they blaming Crawford? They know who makes this fight, and the only one to make this fight...Bob Arum! Isn't Postol a Top Rank fighter too?

I believe he is a K2 fighter.

So now Team Postol is changing their tune?



So Arum/Top Rank deliberately put out a false statement to justify the Lundy fight?

I'm just trying to understand what happened here and why we have conflicting articles.

That's what it looks like - but who knows? OTOH ... everyone knows Arum's history.

October 3, 2015:

“This guy is tough to beat,” said Bob Arum, CEO of Top Rank, which promotes Postol. “He is going to be a force in this 140-pound division and in 147, too. We can make a lot of good fights with this guy. He has a style that makes him difficult.”

The most logical fight would be with Terence Crawford, the Fighter of the Year in 2014 and a Top Rank guy.

“I was told in the ring that he is a great fighter,” Postol said. “I want to fight him, but the question is, is he ready to fight me?”

Postol vs Crawford good fight make it happen

Indeed. Make it happen.

[Ham Porter]

Yet another fight in boxing that should happen but won't. But hey, who needs actual fights when we can discuss them to death on forums without ever actually getting to see them.

What a worthless piece of **** 'sport' this is.

[Fetta]

Said he turned it down and in reality didnt even ask him.

Would be a good fight too and im sure it happens next or later this year
