Anyone see this fight?
Chop Chop took a knee nine times in the fight. Matthysse's body shots are incredibly accurate. Seven of the eight knockdowns were due to left hooks to the body - very Cotto-esque.
Good fighter Matthysse. Still believe he was robbed against Judah. He should still be unbeaten. Wouldn't mind seeing him fight Marcos Maidana.
He's a pretty solid body puncher and better boxer then I thought. Nice straight shots and up to head opened Judah up big time. Wish he'd get a rematch...think he knocks Judah out. 7 knees ?? Just to get up off that body damage speaks of Corleys brass but that's all he has left. Needs to retire.
Yeah, Demarcus Corley is one of my favorite boxers because he's fought with unbreakable will and determination throughout his career and he definitely showed that here like never before. But the quickness he had in his prime is diminished and he should think of retiring soon. What a beast though, eight times. :appl::appl::appl:
Lucas has certainly proven he's better than his brother was
Plus he's a snappy dresser! Iwas also thinking Matthyse vs Maidana would be a good scrap. I think Maidana is a bit overrated.Quote:

Yeah I agree. Maidana has a chin but I'm not that convinced it's as "bolten" as everyone says; Amir was able to stun him with a sharp hook to the chin...or maybe it was one of those perfectly planted hooks on the temple. I'ma have to re-look. >>Quote:

And let's not forget, he's one of the only boxers out there that makes the warrior skirt look badass.
it's not so much his chin, it's how fast he recuperates, just look at that body shot Khan banged him with in the first round and look at the last 3 rounds of the fight, Maidana although limited is either better than what most give him credit for, or Khan isn't anywhere as goodQuote:
