or


The #1 RING ranked undefeated Junior Welterweight vs the #2 RING ranked undefeated Junior Welterweight, in a unification bout + for the rights to be crowned the RING Champion.....on regular cable.



Hmmm, , I wonder which one is the better matchup?







Postol vs Crawford






Give me a hell yeah!!!!!!!!

But for real tho. It seems like everytime Crawford gets in the ring, he looks smarter than he did before. I always knew he was talented but his ring intel is on another level. That kid can be around for a very long time and dominate.

True, but I always said I wanna see him in against a guy his size or bigger that can box........and it seems like Postol is that "test" I was looking for.

Crawford vs the Young Master would be a good scrap too.

Roach: Crawford is Good, But He Can't Handle Postol

Carson, California - In what was a head turning upset this past weekend, as Freddie Roach’s pupil Viktor Postol (28-0, 12KOs) stopped Lucas Matthysse with a surprise knockout ending to capture the vacant WBC 140-pound title.

Matthysse took a big right hand in the tenth and went down. Fearing a possible eye injury, he remained down on a knee as the referee counted him out.

Roach, who in the beginning of the year had suffered a string of defeats, has rebounded with this upset victory. He said the fight changed when Postol was able to land more combinations and those punches were able to hurt Matthysse.

“It was ok, it was a little sloppy in the beginning,” Roach told BoxingScene. “He started putting combinations together and that's when the fight started to change. Matthysse is a great fighter and we did hurt him a couple of times in the fight. When they were tied up and on the break both guys were relaxed and it left openings for him [to hit] Matthysse. I kept telling him to take advantage of that and then he finally did and it worked well.”

Roach feels Postol is the best 140 pounder in the world and with his preparation would like to take on the likes of a Terence Crawford (26-0, 18KOs).

“I like that he fought pretty well, trained really well and took advantages of things I told him in the corner,” explained Roach. “Matthysse was the bigger name going into this but now we can get a bigger name like Crawford. I don’t think Crawford can handle my guy.”

Roach says if the money is right, they’ll take a trip to Crawford’s hometown of Omaha, Nebraska.

“It’s a good fight we probably have to go to his hometown, but if we got to go to his hometown, probably gotta pay us more money. It’s a great fight for boxing. Crawford is a very good opponent but don’t think he can handle my guy.”
