    Since Peterson was blown out by Bradley and Lucas and couldn't beat Ortiz, a new guy should get a shot. Isn't Postal a mandatory for Danny anyway. His style and height would be a better test to watch.

    Think Vargas being the WBA regular titlist has first mandate. But stylistically easy fight for Danny Boy.:think

    Postol is very average. Danny would Khan him.:good

    postol is one and a half times better than mauricio herrera, garcia should avoid that fight. he should rematch salka or peterson or something.

    Don't know a whole lot about Postol but what are you basing him being better than Herrera on?

    Herrera had the style to beat Garcia, I would favour Garcia over Mayfield who beat Herrera and Taylor who beat Mayfield.

    Postol would embarrass Danny as bad as Herrera did. Danny may be able to stop Peterson.
    For fans Peterson
    For haters Postol

    Postol would beat Danny.
    Bad style match up.

    Matthysse beat Peterson and is the real IBF champion, so there should be a rematch with Garcia. Herrera beat the fecal matter out of Garcia, so there should be a rematch with Garcia also..................Peterson and Garcia are not world champions anymore......................Khan beat Peterson, but Peterson cheated like Hell, PEDS, referee, boxing commission, judges, etc.

    The best scenario IMO for DSG is to move to 147, beat Broner, and set his fight for the 147 supremacy with PBF!!

    Imagine Papa Garcia vs. The Mayweathers ....that by itself is worth the fight!!!:good

    Postol's a much tougher styles matchup. Peterson eats too many hooks and lacks KO power and a great jab, so I don't see Danny having too much trouble in that one.

    It's remarkable how the tide's shifted on Peterson and people seem fine with the drug use and hometown robbery for his biggest win now. There is no less deserving titlist in boxing right now when you consider how he won it and what's happened since then. He won it via robbery, didn't get stripped because of the PED scandal, and then got KTFO'd by Matthysse when his belt wasn't on the line. Frankly, it's a bit of a joke he's got a belt.

    Well, if they can make the fight at 140, Danny's going to collect what he should've just gotten packaged with the Matthysse win. Peterson doesn't have the style or tools to win that fight.
