Connection box with mounting post?

Hi,
I just removed a chandelier in my old house and hoped to replace it with a ceiling fan.
The connection box has a heavy duty mounting post in the middle of it that is making it impossible to install the fan.
Has anyone had any experience with a box like this? Is there any way to get the post out of the way? I have tried unscrewing it with a wrench to no avail.
See the attached picture to see what I am talking about. Any help is very much appreciated.
