hes up against unbeaten Mexican Roberto Ortiz (31-0-1) I cant say I have heard of him though, so I cant pass judgement on him. I have read that Lucas wants a rematch with Garcia...does anybody see that happening?

Adrien Broner Says Lucas Matthysse is Next Opponent - Boxing News
Adrien Broner says hes fighting Matthysse next, another Argentinian ass whooping for Broner then?
Roberto Ortiz looks like a good fighter. He's also taller than Mathysse. It should be a good and exciting fight. Ill go with Mathysse Sd. Mathysse then beats Broner if the judges dont screw him
I just noticed Matthysse is fighting this weekend. Haven't heard of his opponent so should be a near gimme tune up.
But, the Molina fight was supposed to be a near gimme tune up too.
A warm up against an unbeaten fighter for Matthysse v Broner would be good.
The big two - Mayweather and Pacquiao will be remembered as the two best fighters of this generation.
However, it is fighters like Cotto who have made things exciting over the past ten plus years.
I'm personally grateful for having Matthysse, Providnikov and Maidana on the scene currently. They may not be the marquee names, but they are the backbone for a soli era in the 140/147 division.
Bit worrying that Matthysse was getting decked last time, even though they weren't heavy knockdowns, considering he'd never been over before (had nowhere to go but down against Garcia).
31-0 Mexican? Nice "gimme"
Broner-Matthysse would be great. Win or lose that boy is gonna feel pain.
As long as Mattysse has both eyes available my money is on him.
I agree. His last fight was concerning. I feel like that Garcia fight took a lot out of him...not sure if he will ever be the same fighter.Quote:

That was probably one of Floyds best fights as far as the undercards go.Quote:

I think Broner has the goods to hold a belt again, if he doesn't let his ego overload his ass.Quote:

He's like most people who think they're great at multitasking, in the long run everything suffers, he should put the singing away and concentrate on the boxing.
The most irksome thing about Broner is his mouth, when the guy gets going he comes off as a smarmy braggart. A Uriah Heep with attitude. If he just shut his mouth he would be much better off.
