WHAT is with the matthysse hype?

[Scarcaztic]

As Nazim says, "If you can punch you don't need no tassels on your shorts."

Matthysse does it all in the ring, no need for any clowning outside of it. There is no 'hype' around him because he doesn't stir it up. All the respect and attention he's got, he's got it in the ring.

A lot of posters on sites like this aren't very knowledgeable though and they can't get excited about someone unless he's raps terribly, beats his wife etc.

They're not really watching for the boxing.

You just owned 60% of this site. Great post.

so basically broner and floyd had no hype or fans before doing any of this?

mattyshe and ggg both are lucky sobs.

it's funny how most fighters get no credit for who they beat (i.e garcia) but lucas and ggg beat lesser tier fighters and get incredible praise for it, it's very interesting.

Those same guys who say Matthysse is a hypejob will tell you his just another face first brawler.

This. Some guys really dont know what they look for. If he's not slick or fast and seems to have power than thats all he does. Lord forbid you mention Garcia in a bad light to some.

Also to the Broner guy. Lucas has fought an beat the better fighters...nobody would consider him a bum if Broner beat him don't be so insecure.


Also to the guy who admitted he didnt know who Ajose was... Prior to the Lucas fight he was the hipster pick as one of the top dogs (and top guy to some) at 140. He was ducked like the plague.. Many thought the Ajose-Lucas fight was the two best at 140 going at it and they're not too far off. Ajose is a pick em fight with all of them.

140 is 1 of the deepest divisions in boxing. Lucas Mattysse is 1 of the best fighters in 1 of the best divisions. I don't see what the problem is.

If this WA how most viewed it I don't believe there would be an issue..But most want to say that Lucas without a doubt is the top of the 140lb Div, which is ridicules..

what the hell does ricky hatton have to do what this ? u have no idea what my thoughts on hatton are
did i ever proclaim hatton to be a destroyer ? god? no never

I am talking about your judgement on talent. Not about Hatton. But you at least once said that he was an ATG

wooooooooooooooo
hattonnnn!!!!! good ****
id say hes def atg tho
so underated here

You see, the way you see things and the way people see Lucas are differently. I was pointing out that, not about your favorite fighter.

I remember making a thread saying, "Ajose would beat most of the top 10 @ 140."

Jack ass posters were saying, "who the hell has he beat!?"

"The win over Ajose wasn't that impressive."

"He's a nobody that just got TKO'd."

Some of these posters on NSB really don't know **** about boxing.

If you've watched a Lucas fight, and can't see that his boxing SKILLS, not just his power are legit, you DON'T KNOW **** ABOUT BOXING.

Keep jerking off to the SRL/Pernell clones. Nut riding them makes you a "knowledgeable" boxing fan.

HE IS. No one at 140 is ****in with dude.

That's not over hyping. That's called evaluating talent!

You think posters on this site have some weird infatuation with Argentianian boxers?

We have eyes. We can judge based on what we've seen in the ring.

He is THE BEST at 140. That's not hugging. That's just giving an opinion, and calling it like we see it.

[-Jay-]

He easily beat Alexander, flattened Soto & Olusegun two very underrated, solid top 10 fighters.

He'd rip Peterson's head off & put A mere con in a bodybag.

You say this but WTF has Peterson even done? Won a disputed decision over a glass chinned amateur whilst juiced up to the gills, wow! Beat Kendall Holt, who hasn't?

WTF has Garcia done? Beat a 90yr old Morales and the same glass chinned amateur.

Lucas knocks Peterson, Garcia & Khan out, man. Not one of them hear the final bell and Khan could get KTFO in seconds if he isn't careful.
Nobody at 140 beats the current version of Lucas.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to dan_cov again.

What is with all the Matthysse hate in nsb? The guy brings it every fight and is great to watch.

He's a danger to the fighters they like. That's all it takes to get hated around here.

Rome By KO also thinks Bradley beat Pac with the sound off. What does that tell you Bradley twisted both his ankles trying to get away from Pac punches and walked out the arena in a f**king wheel chair.

What's really funny is that even with hurt ankles, PAC still could still not hurt or do any real damage to Bradley, sad..
