    How was either one unmarketable? Both had numerous appearances on American TV. How many does Postol have again?

    Postol has had at least three fights on HBO recently how many has Dollorme had and did he win those ?
    Do the fans consider Dolorme or Lundy elite because that also plays a factor in how many tune in.


    If Crawford fights Postol it will do more than 900k views I can assure you

    When was the last time Dolorme even fought on a major Network besides losing to Crawford and a life and death struggle with Lundy



    It's been a while .....

    Dulorme had faced Abregu and Lundy on HBO and Francisco Figueroa on HBO Latino.

    Postol does better ratings than Lundy and Dolorme.

    Bob doesn't want Crawford to face Postol because he's afraid Postol will beat him.:deal

    I have to agree it's mainly Bob Arum preventing the fight.

    The Crawford-Lundy event drew 982,000 on HBO


    Postol-Aydin event drew 1,137,000 on HBO



    For the people saying Postol is completely unknown.

    Postol didn't want the fight. Crawford hit up postol after hererra turned him down, no return call, no one to fight other then Lundy. Postol doesn't want it because he's one dimensional. All he does is jab and hold. Crawford will out jab him.

    Do you have a credible Link proving that Postol turned Crawford down in the past because I find that weird being that he just put out a video this week calling Crawford out.
