I think it depends on Matthysse. If he forces the pace like he did v Soto/Peterson then it ends in KO, if he boxes like he did v Judah I can see it going 12.
My points would be on a KO however OP, I don't think this is the wisest bet.
I see this fight being like a Maidana vs Lopez type fight. Both fighters landing punches with each fighter having a chance to win. Then one goes down in the middle rounds. The end.
They are both heavy handed, once they start to trade you will change your mind. I think it will be a raw fight, maybe with cuts and swallen eyes. I have this picture in my mind of Danny hurt walking backwards in survival mode and throwing that looping left hook with his eyes shut. I also see Lucas being knocked down for the first time.
I have to agree. This is going to be a rough fight for both men, and someone's likely to finish the fight on their back.

100% guaranteed this fight goes the distance with no KO. All my points on it.
You're obviously very confident in your prediction. Why do you feel this way?
Why would Lucas get robbed? Zab was a close fight coulda gone either way. And lucas is with haymon now
Because Garcia is the younger, more marketable fighter who has been with Haymon on the come up. Lucas got signed so Haymon would make money no matter what happens between the two, and so that when Lucas wins he gets the cut from a Mayweather or Broner fight as well.
This goes to the judges though, and Lucas isn't getting it.
Lucas won't let that happening. He's taking Garcia out or getting flattened trying. He of all people should understand he's not getting the decision in this fight.
Besides, Garcia's not capable of running like Judah and Alexander.
True i still have a bad feeling just because of the build up for this fight that it could end up a let down somehow even though both of these fighters are exciting to watch. I think its just cause of prior experiences like that
I'll take some free points
That's maybe the one thing you can be sure wont happen in this fight. maybe Danny's used to this BS, but Matthysse just wont let it go to the judges. If he see's the fight going the distance I bet he goes balls to the wall rather than trust another judge for such a fight. The only case of him trusting it would be a 100% complete domination with Danny bleeding like a chunk of beef while Matthysse looks as if he wasnt even in a fight, with his corner telling him not to worry, the fight is won. But then again with such domination Matthysse is known to do his thing and KO anyway.
I've been thinking this lately and I had a bad feeling if this happens we are likely to see Matthysse robbed
