I seriously think Lucas's boxing skills are highly underrated. He is in the Pro's for a reason, that in itself requires skill, yes Garcia is a better boxer, and yes it is boxing, but what scores the points are the punches, and Garcia doesn't have Mayweathers defence. I can't see their fight on My Birthday!! Sept 7th going anymore than 7 rounds. If Judah at the age of 35 can land on Garcia, then surely Lucas can land half that but with a lot more power.

And, i don't think floyd's ever been in there with somebody with that kind of power. Maybe if he'd fought a prime mosley at 135, but definitely not the shot version of him at 147. Matthyse has the kind of power where he can knock you out with either hand with one punch. That is very, very rare.

Hunter gave Peterson the wrong game plan. Stick and move? what is that? That's not Peterson style to stick and move. He's a come forward fighter. The game plan should've been to go right at Mytthysse from the opening bell and bang it out. Hunter is an idiot.

I never felt Lamont was anything special and should have dropped decisions to both Kahn and Ortiz but he whatever.
That faint to body, then the overhand left was a thing of beauty. Lamont's good but Lucas is better.
