Matthyse vs Garcia is more intriguing than either facing Rios. A fight with Rios would be great fun (either guy facing him), but with Rios it will become a question of whether LM or Garcia can control distance better than Alvarado and hurt Rios later on in the fight.
Matthyse vs Garcia is interesting because both guys have power. Both guys can box. LM's technique is underrated. Either would be willing to do some infighting. I favor LM, because I think he is a special puncher (a man that drops every freaking guy he faces is special to me). But you could argue for any outcome. Garcia does have enough power to hurt LM. Garcia boxes well enough that he could win a decision. LM has the power to hurt and possibly KO Garcia. LM's underrated boxing ability (when matched with his power) would allow him to box well enough to win a decision (whether or not any judges would give him one is another story).
So I like LM vs Garcia more than either of them fighting Rios because the way the fight goes could vary much more.
