LOS ANGELES (May 8, 2016) -- Undefeated junior welterweight champions TERENCE "Bud" CRAWFORD and "The Iceman" VIKTOR POSTOL will host a press conference luncheon This Tuesday! May 10, at The Beverly Hilton (9876 Wilshire Blvd., Beverly Hills, Calif. 90210), to announce their 12-round world title unification fight to determine the lineal king of the exciting 140 pound division. Luncheon will be served in the Beverly Hills Ballroom at 12:30 p.m. with the press conference beginning at 1:00 p.m. PT. Joining the fighters will be their respective trainers, Brian McIntyre and World-Famous Freddie Roach, and Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum.

Promoted by Top Rank?, in association with the motion picture "Hands of Stone" and Tecate, the Crawford vs. Postol world championship event will take place on Saturday, July 23, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nev. It will be produced and distributed live HBO Pay-Per-View? beginning at 9:00 p.m. ET / 6:00 p.m. PT.

Crawford (28-0, 20 KOs), of Omaha, Neb., already a two-division world champion, has won four of his last five bouts by stoppage. The consensus Top-10 pound-for-pound fighter will be making his MGM Grand Garden debut in his third title defense as World Boxing Organization (WBO) junior welterweight world champion.

Postol (28-0, 12 KOs), from Kiev, Ukraine, put his stamp on the boxing landscape when he scored a 10th-round knockout of the heavily-favored former world champion Lucas Matthysse to capture the vacant World Boxing Council (WBC) super lightweight world title on October 3, 2015. Having won two of his last three fights by knockout, the Freddie Roach-trained Postol will be making his first defense of that title.
