Lucas Matthysse - Ajose Olusegun this weekend!

[Tam Seddon]

Whos your picks for this one?? Glad Ajose has finally got his break, and is fighting for the interim title, he should have had his shot a while, but obviously hes not well known enough yet. Hes got a major step up against the highly rated Matthysse. This is a massive test for him, I really dont know how he will get on. Does anybody see him springing any surprises against Matthysse? Or has everyone got Matthysse to win this one comfortably?

Matthysse for me, dude is a decent enough boxer and has dynamite in his hands. A good case can be made for him bein undefeated. Hopefully its even half as fun as his 5rounder against soto that was sick...

Ajose: Lucas Matthysse is Way Better Than Danny Garcia - Boxing News

[Ant Live]

A year or two ago, I've picked Matthysee to be the best 140lber. I'm still going with that. Hopefully he can get another title shot sooner then later. It will be nice to see him in the ring with the likes of Rois, M&M or JMM one day.

I am not familiar with Ajose Olusegun, other than that the WBC has relegated him to purgatory status, during the Garcia reign at light welterweight. Matthysse punches with ferocity and heavy hands. He can box a bit too. I favor Matthysse.

Matthysse is one of my favorite fighters, he has KO power, always comes to fight and puts on a good show.
Sept. 8th
At Las Vegas (Showtime): Ajose Olusegun vs. Lucas Matthysse, 12 rounds, for vacant WBC interim junior welterweight title; Ishe Smith vs. Irving Garcia, 10 rounds, junior middleweights.

This card starts @ 9:00 PM ET on Showtime Saturday night, a bit earlier than the HBO - Dawson vs. Ward card.
Olusegun is a perfect 30-0 but only has 14 KO's, Lucas will walk through his punches, bust him up, and knock him out in one of the later rounds.
