Has anyone heard anything about who he's gonna fight next? It seems like after he's close loss to Garcia that he has been laying low but I haven't heard anything at all. He should take the title from Peterson. Or fight Khan / Broner. Eager to see him fight he's fights always exciting
Heard he might fight Thurman on Floyd's undercard but nothing official as far as I know.Quote:

Only thing I remember from the Garcia fight was he's right eye was swollen badly. As for him fighting Thurman that'd be a really ballsy move having never fought at 147 and taking on one of the biggest punchers in the division.
Yes ballsy and stupid. Like both guys but fuck jumping right in with Thurman.Quote:

Thurman is a big welter to, he could be fighting at 154 quite easily. Hopefully there isn't anything to that possibility, although if he were fighting on the Floyd card, the losers(Maidana, Khan or Broner) of either two main events would still match up well with him.
Did some research and it seems like the more likely possibilities are Broner or Judah and there is a rumor that he would fight Thurman. I guess he's not injured but just resting. Also heard their supposed to announce more about he's next fight today
Jesus. Garcia followed by Thurman. Can't see Matthysse signing up for that.
Ya got to be naive to believe Lucas is fighting Thurman next lol and on Floyd's undercard at that.
So we would see a super duper card featuring lucas-thurman, khan-broner, mares-miura? Why not throw in Vitali vs lewis 2 as well..
lucas is coming off of a loss and it would be foolish for him to jump up a division to fight thurman. It doesnt make any kind of business sense.
Put Lucas in with Peterson again at the weight this time.
I hope he comes back soon. He is an exciting, humble fighter.... and a breath of fresh air in boxing. One loss shouldn't derail his career.
Peterson was weight drained the first time. If he comes in healtthy, he can beat lucas.Quote:
