Danny Garcia vs Lucas Mattysse

[armin]

If the peterson fight never happened what would be your honest view on matthysse?

Would he still be this monster?

I been high on matthyse for a few years the peterson fight has nothing to do with it, and never described him as a monster myself, so yeah i'd still think he's a bad man. I just think lucas credentials are a bit better and has had the better preparation thru his fights for this. but these are all opinions right now and maybe ill be shocked Saturday and danny kos lucas but I just don't see it happening.

The reason I'm picking Lucas is simply because I haven' t seen Garcia really outbox anyone aside of Judah maybe and..well Judah wasn't never a pure boxer as much as he was a fast guy who threw hard punches.

So in essence you have a power puncher who's patient against a slightly less powerful puncher who's more active and goes off balance less often. I can see a case for both fighters winning however Danny does not have sublime defense and well remember how Sweete Pete said he doesn't care of god throws punch because he can duck it? Lucas isn't god but my god you don't want to have his punches testing your chin.

My pick: Lucas Mathysse.

Not as much of a monster. That's for sure. Peterson was coming off a big TKO win over Kendall Holt and Matthysse walked right through him.

Funny thing is that Peterson hasn't fought since and it's been more than six months and still no speculation about his next fight. He still has the belt too. It appears at least on first glance that Matthysse might have ruined Peterson's career.

The Peterson win is better than any win on Garcia's ledger too.

Is Garcia good enough to smother Matthysse's power or stay out of range of it? I think that might be difference in this fight.

In any event, gentlemen, this is going to be a first rate scrap that we're all looking forward to. May the best man win.

How would we compare garcia to judah and alexander?

And compare matthysse to judah and khan?

This really could be the thriller moment for danny garcia and he will gain so much IF he wins

[bigstinkybug]

Garcia is the naturally bigger fighter. And the more rounded fighter. He doesn't hit as hard as Matthyse. But he does possess good power. And I think he has the better chin.

Those are some of the factors that make garcia the winner!

Come on danny.

*what! im agreeing with u! damn... we r in for a crazy night of fights then... I also like Garcia. Matthese's power might be the best below 150 pounds, other than a couple of guys from the filipines... BUT, Garcia is not powder puff... Garcia is the real deal. I can see Matthese hurt very early in this one...

I hope garcia wins.
No one likes him but he gets the job done.

no one like his dad

if he was my dad id tell him not to come to the pressers

what an embarrassment

I think he has helped danny to be honest eric in regards to the mental state of last few opponents

Perhaps not as much in this one because lucas dont speak english but im sure they translate some of the crap angel says.

youre probably right

and its definately helped raise his profile

[bigstinkybug]

*I like Danny's dad, he tells it like he thinks he see's it. he's NOOOO different than a lot of Puerto Ricans I knew in the ARMY... a lot of energy, loud and crazy... and does he help Danny? hell yea it does... at the end of a presser, everyone's talking about this dude... it's mental warefare and no one does it better that Angel Garcia.

[Fenster]

Danny's dad is OK for an ignorant bumbling racist.

[Gandalf]

This is the main event for me and I think Lucas will break Garcia down and lay down the hurt from the 6th onwards. If Judah is going to take the second half of the fight against you, then you are not going to do much against Mattyse down the stretch. I think Garcia will start fresh, but when he realises that he is in with an all round boxer puncher, he will start to get hurt.

*where's he a racist

Look at his history and the quotes hes made and make your own mind up.
