Matthysse v Peterson

[Silkeyjoe]

Cant see any thrads on this. How does everyone see this going? Should be an entertaining fight but think Peterson is tailor made for Matthysse. I think Matthysse stops him

[Hulk]

Matthysse is deadly and one of my favorite fighters.

However, sometimes a good aggressive pressure fighter and smother a knockout artist like what Hatton did against Tzyu.

Then other times the aggressive pressure fighter gets knocked out like Barrios against Freitas.

I think Matthysse's power is absolutely overwhelming for other 140 lbers and he is a rarity for big punchers; he's a clever, patient boxer as well.

I'll pick Matthysse by late stoppage, but he's going to be in for a tough tough fight.

It's a terrific fight. @Hulk hit the nail on the head. Maybe Peterson's aggressiveness stifles Matthysse's power, or maybe Matthysse hurts Peterson and get hims out of there.

I hope this leads to Matthysse vs. Garcia. If Matthysse gets by Peterson, he deserves that fight.

Is it in D.C.?

It better not be in dc on the chance that it goes to the cards lucas don't need to be gettin screwed over on the cards again.

I don't really see this one as a pick em whatsoever Matthysse doesn't need to hurt Peterson with one shot or keep him worried about his power, he may well end up BEING the pressure fighter himself imo. If the fight goes 12 I still don't see how Peterson actually does the more effective work or holds out longer.

Great match-up!

Matthysse by KO

[armin]

I'm going with matthysee late stoppage, with a knockdown or two earlier in the fight as well. Matthyse's punches just look fuckin painful on tv, if he had started quicker in the zab and devon fights it probably would have never made it to the cards, but seems like since that fight he comes gun blazin from the get go so probably learned his lesson. This should be fun while it lasts.
