Yep am a "One of those Garcia fan" lol Buriqua!!! Is that it? Again Garcia magically close his eye doe and others like Judah and Alexander were running? Right? But am glad he won today with those same tactics.
did you even watch the fight? garcia and matthysse clashed heads and that was what caused the eye injury, it was then further worsened when garcia's glove raked across the eye. those things could easily be accidentss, but matthysse still came back with one eye to be on the brink of winning but a botched call by the ref gave garcia a knockdown and sealed the win. its a shame the fight is so tainted because of the reffing. it really needs a rematch and a definitive winner. garcia definitely didn't deserve to win because he would have lost if not for that bad call, but at the same time matthysse didn't deserve to win because maybe the fight plays out differently if the knockdown isn't allowed. most people want the rematch but garcia doesn't which is a shame.
Interesting. ...
If you look at all those three guys, they don't have the power to make Ruslan think twice. Mathysse has all the tools.
It was a great win though, Mathysse looked great.
This was an easy fight to score, Provo doesn't really bring anything that can trouble Lucas unless Lucas was stupid enough to get himself into a war with Provo, but Lucas wasn't that stupid when we all know he has more of a boxing ability than Provo whose only chance was a war.
Some of these guys that are claiming this was a close fight perhaps were watching a different fight or a trip to the optometrist should be in order? That was about as clear of a 117-111 fight as I've ever seen. What rounds did you mongs actually score to Ruslan? Anybody giving Ruslan anymore than 4 rounds is out of their mind. Yeah he got in some decent shots occasionally but you'd have to ignore the steady jab that was constantly snapping his neck back and the 5-6 hard shots he had to take to land one of his sloppy telegraphed hooks.
That was not a close fight. The punch stats and the state of their faces back up what was plainly a one sided beatdown.
The only that kept that him in there was his chin and that will be gone soon enough.
his eye puffed up and closed in literally 1-2 seconds from danny throwing the palm of his glove and landed right on lucas right eye, there's a video showing it happen clear as day in slow motion on youtube
you're one of those garcia fans who watched the fight once, saw the outcome you wanted, and never watched the fight again lol

Whatever fan boy. Maybe if you weren't too busy swinging on Matthysse's nuts you would have watched the fight objectively.
I did I didn't give provo rds he fought 20 seconds of. You should have done the same.
Lucas obviously came in with a great game plan from round 1.
What is amazing to me is that Lucas was landing bomb after bomb and never got discouraged when Provo not only didn't go down, but kept coming forward.
You know at some point he was probably thinking, what the hell else can I land?
Not in my view he didn't and there is nothing silly about giving a round to the busier fighter landing the harder punches. That was Provodnikov in the third.
I don't give a sh#t about compubox when I have my own eyes to view punches.
Your eyes suck.
]matthysse won the 3rd, lederman gave it to provo but i thought that was silly after rewatching it
even after checking compubox, i'm comfortable in saying lucas won, he landed more power shots and jabs than ruslan in that round

Yep he wasn't doing "*****", he just magically close his eye for him.

Matthysse definitely lost the third round on my scorecard. I had it 7-5 Matthysse but I'm going to watch it again. Matthysse. 9-3 is really stretching it.

danny wasn't doing **** to lucas until the eye injury
lucas was dominating ruslan, murdering his face, before the cut
there's a contextual difference there

i don't he lost any of the early rounds, i had it something like 5 to 1, being honest was to nervous to keep a score :lol1:, ruslan hurt lucas a couple of times in the late rounds and he almost dropped him, finished strong, but i don't think that was enough.

The eye doe... He ran doe... This are some of the excuses I have heard in the past when Lucas lost a fight like the one he won today.

He also took far less damage, his face was clean compared to those guys.
the look in ruslan's eyes the majority of that fight was "surprise", i guess that's the word i would use, maybe "shocked"
