Lol. That's not an even score? what's an even score? 85.5/85.5 85.5/85.5 85.5/85.5 ? The only possible scenario of postol winning to mathysse was mathysse not willing to win. And that's exactly what happened yesterday.
Had a Technical Decision needed to have been called at the end of the 9th Round, who would have been awarded the decision - Postol or Matthysse?
atsch Ok, man, good for you. 86/85 86/85 85/86 is not an even fight. As i told you and even fight is 85.5 85.5 85.5. Tell me when it happens.
This is similar logic to "Vitali Klitshcko would have beaten Lennox Lewis because of what the scorecards said, at the time of the stoppage." And Vitali was actually ahead on the cards at that point. Still makes no sense whatsoever and is the type of outcry made only by people who cannot face facts.
Facts are that mathysse didnt want to win. He was perfectly fine in an even fight. He just didnt want to wint. That's the fact.
Answer the question - Who would have won at the end of round 9, had there been a call for a TD, at that point? Answer another question - What would Matthysse have required, if he had made the count in round 9 and then had managed to make it through rounds 11 and 12? In your own time - genius!
So what - you're alluding to some undercurrent, outside of the fact he was unable to get on top of Postol, which caused him to feel this way? This is the second thread in which you have spouted similar sh!t regarding this fight so please do expand on your theories around why Matthysse lost the will to win.
The guy got 90K for that fight. A fighter of his quality now with a belt should be in position to start earning some money to provide for his family. Most E.E. are treated like slave laborers in this sport and do not start earning any purses of consequence after accomplishing much more than their Western counterparts. Curious how none of you faux equal opportunity clowns and social justice warriors seem to have a problem with this.
People considering postol a good fighter is something beyond me. Armpunching your way to the top. [YT]sN_UeTQnsP0[/YT]
BS. That's the classic armpunch, you can disguise it as you want to. I have boxed as an amateur for 7 years btw. I was average or worse, but still experienced enough to recognize an armpuncher when I see one. EDIT: the right leg on the air is part of his wonderful counterpunching technique too? that punch is s***t
How is considering him a good fighter is overrating? He's a top3 LWW now, noone says he's a p4p top10.
And btw, that's not the classic pull counter. To be a pull counter you need to actually pull before countering and postol doesnt pull s***.
