Arum and GBP will work together and both guys are on HBO. I know Matthysse is 140 but I'm sure he'd move up to 147 for this fight. Think it would be FOTY and Bradley might win, but Matthysse rocks him throughout the fight. Who do you guys think wins?
This fight will never happen. The Golden Boy vs Top Rank feud is supposed to be over but it isn't. How often do you see them matching their fighters into each other? About never. If the fight happened Lucas would knock Bradley out. Bradley used to be very good but he is not that good any more. 140 pounders Ruslin and even average 140 puncher Vargas are knocking him down and badly hurting him. Matthysse has the speed, skill, power and killer instinct to hurt Bradley and finish him and that is what he will do. Bradley has no punch to keep Lucas off of him. Bradley can't take a punch the way he could a few years back and he is slower. He beat Vargas but Matthysse is much better than Vargas.
Both Matthysse and Bradley are damaged goods. Moreso Bradley. I like TB. I don't need to see him in against any more punchers; I already know what he can do.
At least he's not obese...:haha:
problem with bradley is he always wants to get some back when he gets tagged
lucas too to a point but he can get hit by bradley and probably not get hurt
remember lucas is a boxer puncher who likes to counter. he landed vicious counters on provo and Mike Dallas and danny

i think lucas is far from being damaged goods

I think bradley outboxes him easily if he boxes and doesn't try to slug it out. Remember bradley outboxed devon who outboxes lucas
you mean, devon who robbed lucas? devon never outboxed lucas, at all.
Matthysse's said he'll move up to 147 after he wins a title at 140, so this fight can definitely be made in the near future.
If Bradley goes to war with Lucas, he gets knocked out.
We might've gotten this fight @140 if Matts had gotten the W over Alexander. It's a fight I've been wanting to see, and I have my fingers crossed that we'll still get it. However, I don't think Matts gets to Bradley if he has to face Crawford first.
