Comments Thread For: Postol's Manager Confirms Talks To Face Crawford in The Summer

[Eff Pandas]

Really hope this fight gets made this year. HBO, PPV or whatever I don't really care.

I think this fight makes or breaks the Crawford hype. I'm not entirely sold on Crawford yet, like some others, but if he gets by Postol it'll be hard to argue he's just a figment of HBO's promotional power.

NBA schedule and boxing match aren't comparable. Boxing you can actually control. Fighters have the opportunity to face the best each time. For PBC fights, it hasn't happened at the same rate compared to HBO. If HBO is putting up 10 fights with only 2 being competitive/high profile fight (20%), PBC is putting up 50 fights but only 8 is competitive/high profile (16%). Of course I'm going to criticize PBC more.

foh u the type that say mares vs montiel is no good..bc u are not a real fan..u're the type that say bone vs algieri was not a quality match up..bc u dont do research on the sport..u just live off names..u didnt know kameda and mcdonnel would give it all they did..bc u didnt carea bout those guys...how about kameda and kono al brough the biggest asian fight to america...meanwhile hbo cant even give u roman vs a mexican he already beat...dont test my knowlege u'll end yourself...name ten mismatches please without bring up guys who are not big money guys and can get any fight they want...

Oh great. You're the type that attacks someone because they don't agree with your opinion. I guess I'm a hater for thinking PBC could be doing a much job given their stable of fighters.

Stay classy. Improve on your grammar and punctuation skills while you're at it.

Oh wow. Damnnnnn, you sure got me by naming some good fights I never denied PBC wasn't putting up. You sure got some E points for that.

If you can read English, what I actually said was not that they weren't putting up good fights (I blatantly acknowledged they put up good fights), but that the rate of good fights to bad fights is not a good rate for them given how big their stable is. Not that HBO has a good rate but it's better than PBC/ST's for sure the past 2-3 years. It looks like it's changing now that HBO has budget problems (but HBO has some good fights down the road late this year) but doesn't change the FACT that PBC/ST has had way too may mismatches than needed the past 2-3 years.

I think Postol will look good for 4-5 rounds also think Crawford will run him over in the run home , Crawford does some weird stuff I dont know why he goes Sth Paw he is nowhere near as good from that stance and this allows guys to tag him and take rounds forcing Bud to fire up and he is a bad ass when he hits that second gear , I dont think Postal has the depth to keep Crawford at bay for 12 rounds .

Hope they make the fight .

so they should have ran out of good fights in one year but hbo can hold ggg/canelo until 2017? kovward until december? and so forth? man get over it you lost this..pbc is one year into life..and they have the best quality and quantity and it is not a paysite..
hbo last two cards = all mismatches...king kong vs 2 day notice thompson
crawford vs lundy...lol the rican prospect vs a guy who said he won without throwing one punch...man please..

Hey, good thing I never actually said they should burn all their best fights in 1 year! I said they could do much better and at least should consistently put up better fights at a comparable rate to HBO. English is your friend.

It would take me a long time. But you can literally look at the 140-154 division, 168-175 division and 122-126 division that there's plenty of fights that should have happened like 1-2 years ago. But I guess all the criticisms guys like Garcia, Broner, Stevenson, Thurnman (among plenty of others) have received the past 2-3 years for bad opponents are nothing more than imagination. If you don't think there sohld have been matchups that haven't happened yet, well let's hope Al Sharpton/Jesse JAckson says a prayer for you.
