Re: Lucas Matthysse-Viktor Postol - Sat/HBO/BN. Fact.
If he made 140, he is! All fighters cut weight.... Great finish, Matthyse had actually been hurt pretty bad in each of the previous rounds, then just waded right into that right. Funny game boxing is, can't believe we can think of Matthyse as a guy who is past it now.
Re: Lucas Matthysse-Viktor Postol - Sat/HBO/BN. Fact.
Postol had a great game plan and it was a bad style matchup. I just think the better man won.

He may have made the weight..... but you rarely see such huge size differences in the ring. Postol's not only that much taller.... he looked a lot heavier. It's guys like Chavez Jr. who have perfected that art. Not something I like to watch.
Re: Lucas Matthysse-Viktor Postol - Sat/HBO/BN. Fact.
Good coming out party for Postol. Liked his performance and the prospect, Easter. Both reminded me of Hearns style fighters. Broner was sharp as well, he seemed like he has changed his attitude. Good matchups in the near future.
Re: Lucas Matthysse-Viktor Postol - Sat/HBO/BN. Fact.
Wow, I haven't seen the fight in full yet, but was shocked to hear Lucas got beaten up. Wasn't expecting a result like that!

Garcia has somehow had the confidence knocked out of his sails now that he is between weight classes.
Lucas is going to have to take an easier Road for the remainder of his career.
I'd like to see Postol vs Crawford.

he beat lucas but that was a 7-5 fight and lucas wasnt outclassed in that one, tonight tho he was, postol is either one bad motherfo...or lucas has gone way downhill and i think its the former
Re: Lucas Matthysse-Viktor Postol - Sat/HBO/BN. Fact.
Or a combination of both ;D
Or just styles make fights.
Re: Lucas Matthysse-Viktor Postol - Sat/HBO/BN. Fact.
Was shocked he didn't get up, or make an attempt :-X Postol is a gangly awkward sort with a solid chin. Would like to know what he rehydrated to as he looks to hold considerable range-size advantage over most in division.

I didn't see this fight, but it's something I don't like to see either.
Re: Lucas Matthysse-Viktor Postol - Sat/HBO/BN. Fact.
Wish I could have seen this one! Have to catch it when I can.
