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.
