Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
He's Camacho reincarnated with someone else taking the punches for him and his mouth. If Lucas sparks his kid, this will be one of those cosmic jokes you tell your grandkids about....or talk up at the bar/pub....
"After he knocked his opponent out anyway, the reporters asked him how he managed to stay focused and ignore all the negative taunts and derogatory comments coming from the opposing trainer? and he said easy, I didn't speak the language. I had no idea what he was saying..."
The question is, if that happens will Angel man up, shut his mouth and walk over and shake Matthysse's and Sarmiento's hand? Well before he cuts his own head off anyway..

They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

This is the fight I'm looking forward to the most. I don't a shit about the Mayweather/Canelo fight, because I don't like either of them, and can only pray to the boxing gods that they knock each other out at the same time.
Anyway, back to the subject. I like both fighters, so I hate that one of them has to lose, of course there could always be a draw, but I doubt that. I see Danny winning the early rounds, since Lucas usually starts off a little slow, but Danny has never been hit by someone with Lucas' power, and I see Lucas slowly breaking him down, and winning by tko.
If I was Danny, I would tell his Dad to stfu. Danny seems like a nice, humble guy, but his dad is such a fucking asshole that it makes people dislike Danny, and hoping that he gets knocked out. The father seems likes he's always trying to steal the spotlight from his son. A good father, would put his son first, and not put his son in the line of fire.
Garcia is a bit too fond of punching people in the balls. Many other fighters would gave complained more about that and the rabbit punching so fair play to Mattheysse. That said Garcia fought well and made it more comfortable than I thought he would. If Lucas had both eyes though he could have pulled enough of the close rounds out of the bag to win or at least draw.
I thought Garcia won (just) but thought he did so more by outfoxing/messing Mattheysse with the low blows and holding and whatnot. He showed a great chin and took advantage of the eye.

While I personally had it a draw I can't complain about the result, props to danny. Lucas will be back and let them have two or three fights and get a rematch on, they're both young enough. I read an interview where lucas and his camp don't even watch film of the fighter they're facing, might be wise to implement that in the future. Also I will have to rewatch in a more sober state at some point was pretty far gone at the time of the fight
One thing that suddenly occurred to me is that Matthysse, who usually has fairly decent/ reliable defence, got hit A LOT more than he is used to.
He just got hit a lot, period.
I was just thinking along the lines of ''Oh maybe if he didn't have the eye problem, he'd be more effective'' but of course, it's just as likely that both eyes could have gone, plus the nose!
He was just getting tagged repeatedly.
To use a Spicoli phrase, it really was just 'rise and repeat'.
