HBO is probably trying to work with Postol on a contract. Maybe that's why nothing has been thrown behind Postol just yet. I certainly remember the crew marveling at how Postol dismantled Matthysse. I bet once a deal is ironed out with Postol and K2, he'll get the HBO treatment again.

Stop b*tching about the clinching, because Matthysse had half the fight with no clinching to do something and still got his ass kicked. It had no impact on the outcome.

Originally posted by Ray* View PostFirst it was the eye doe, now the clinching was too much. At the end of the day Lucas wasnt too generous in his fight with Provo too but i didnt see anyone moaning, saw the postol v lucas fight and didn't think there was any excessive clinching.

The only way to go is make the matchup with Crawford to see which fighter has that IT factor.

Postol is high-risk mediocre reward for Crawford. As I said previously, I am sure Crawford would fight him. But I doubt his people are enthusiastic. Postol's long reach, better than average timing, and decent power doesn't make for a spectacular show for Crawford. He'd get a ton or respect from hardcore fans and the boxing media but they're already high on Crawford so that's not a huge incentive.
Maybe ratings will force the issue. The way things are going at the moment you'll only get a fight like this on ppv.

Postol is a dangerous guy who has no fanbase. Crawford has an ever increasing fanbase and has star potential.
I can see why Postol and his people want the fight. I can see why TC's people are weary. Bob is trying to build a star. HBO though should want this fight. Unless their new top guy has changed their strategy. It was strange that Kellerman was quiet. Postol was treated like a swear word LOL
