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

[jqSide]

Wow. Eight pages, five days later, and no response yet from the Crawford camp considering this is the age of the internets, social media, twitter, email, facebook, you name it, where people expect responses in seconds. Similar to Donald Trump's instant reaction to everything that happens related to his campaign.

Is this the reason why this fight is a PPV? Crawford can't be convinced of fighting Postol unless it's PPV?

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.

well if u quit following those fightes and follow the likes of peterson, barthelemy, felix diaz, the prospects, and others..u are not garcia has fougth peterson and ghost..my god the man has the best resume in boxing right now except pac/cotto likely...give him a damn break every now and then....broner has took tought fights he lost and he bounced back...
ppl so happy about provo vs molina, but broner cant take that fight? hell the dude dropped lucas about 50 times.. broners last opponent beat vargas..now vargas is a champ...u need to stop name watching and start understanding the sport..
yes stevenson i'll give u that even gthought karpency beat dawson..that wasnt the fight he needed..and i wont justify thruman either, but i do like the ghost fight and many ppl have not wanted to fight him..

context is key

I heard Crawford's Team was in talks to pull Erik Morales out of retirement.

Haven't seen or heard Crawford call out anybody.

Exactly, context is key. Haymon's stable has had bad matchups relative to their talent the past 3 years. For all the good fights they've had with their secondary fighters, a noticeable amount of their top fighters aren't fighting good oppositions relative to what was available. They are certainly making up for it this year but that doesn't mean they weren't **** in previous years.

Is Terrence Crawford with Al Haymon?

[Zaroku]

Postal cost me money... Just like Floyd used to cost me money when I bet against him.

I gotta look at Postol vs Crawford before even thinking about who I want to win.

$$$ more important than American pride!

Nice fight to bet on.

oscar was on coke ucant put on good fights when tied up in legal frenzy with the fighters promoter..as soon as he got confired to have those fighters we saw thurman vs ghost...and so forth

so u're looking 3 years down the line...3 years ago his stable was not huge..and arum wouldnt do business with godlent boy on hbo..THEY BOTH SHOULD HAVE BEEN KICKED OFF...2nd oscar the cokehead strikes....year 3 he's running boxing with his stable..and putting out the most quality and quantity..sounds like he faced his adversity..and got threw it more than it sound like i should be hating..

His stable has had the same main guys for like the past 3 years. And I've been disappointed with the opposition of his flagship fighters. There's no way you can actually be happy with EACH fight guys like Garcia, Broner, Porter, Stevenson, etc last year, or the year before or the year before that. What's the problem?

broner and garcia have had tough fights...like i said stevenson has missed some shots but he didnt pull otu the purse bid...porter lost his belt and had to start over..now he has broner and about to have thruman on his resume..u're asking more of haymon fighters than u are anyone else..even after they have lost and are rebuilding..
haymon threw broner in their with a monster in chino after he was coming from 135lbs...lol that is not a soft touch..he nearly got the boy killed..
