Lucas Mattheysse vs. Mike Dallas Jr. Jan 26th 2013, Hank Lundy Out

If Dallas can remain coherent and follow the game plan he could put on a clinic. Props to him for having the cajones to try to get his name back in play against a guy like Lucas.

In what way can he put on a clinic

He's an ESPN co-main event guy vs. an elite 140 lber in the world.

Props to Dallas for taking the fight, but I expected the more talented Lundy to be broken down.

Upsets do happen, but I think its insulting to suggest Dallas can put on a "clinic" against Matthysse, who for my money is 2nd only to Danny Garcia and perhaps Tim Bradley at 140.

Agreed. I'm not even sure id put him second to anyone at 140, imo he should be undefeated if not for two house decisions. Altho maybe those were good for him since he's started a lot faster in his fights since.

Should be fun while it last and glad they didn't decide to scrap the whole fight. Dallas a suitable- serviceable sub though.

But with respects he ain't showing Mattheysse a thing. He gets out hustled and boxed by nerf ball Herrera and out punched by a Lopez. Nope. He has never ever felt a punch like he will feel early here and certainly hasn't seen this level. Mattheysse is a natural puncher, with jabs and all the above. Top caliburs Soto, Alexander and Judah all had different degrees of early success only to be broken up and on roller skates as it went. Dallas is going skating too.

Yup he could get blown out. No argument here.
