Brian 'Bomac' McIntyre, the co-manager and trainer of WBO junior welterweight champion Terence Crawford, believes WBC titlist Viktor Postol was looking for a check when he signed on for tonight's unification at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Postol (28-0, 12KOs) has been inactive since knocking out Lucas Matthysee for the vacant WBC championship last October at the StubHub Center in Carson, California.

Crawford knocked out Dierry Jean in the same month, and then came back this past February to make another defense of his belt with a bruising knockout of Hank Lundy.

McIntyre believes Postol was intentionally sitting on the shelf and waiting around for the biggest payday to land on his lap. Postol is going to make over $600,000 for his unification with Crawford. McIntyre states that Postol's biggest payday, prior to tonight, was a $150,000 step-aside fee from then WBC champion Danny Garcia, who was looking to postpone a mandatory fight with the boxer from Ukraine.

"I think he's in it for the money, because he had ample time to have a fight. What's that 10 months [that he's been inactive]? He had ample enough time. He could have defended his title against a 14th rated fighter or go back to Ukraine and defend his belt over there," McIntyre said.

"He got 90,000 dollars for Matthysse and now he stands to get 600 thousand dollars.... I think that's his guarantee, don't quote me [on that]. 90 thousand and 600 thousand - that's a big ass gap. That's a big ass gap. And for him not to fight in 10 months - either something's wrong with his body or he's waiting for a paycheck."

"To me, realistically thinking, this is just me thinking... I think he's cashing out, he's just looking for the check. The most he got was 150 thousand step-aside money for Danny Garcia."
