Do you think Matthysse can beat any of the top welterweights?

Maybe Brook with his china eye sockets.

5-0 5KO's, he has unproven power against no name journeymen for sure. But that's for like 100% of boxers starting out, but maybe his power is real. Yeah I've heard his name mentioned a few times, people think he's the real deal

He has Power so he always has at least a PUNCHERS CHANCE! Danny Garcia has a excellent chin but not mean can take a shot like this from Matthysse and not go down https://media.giphy.com/media/3o7abolX3dxevnaPAY/giphy.gif

hell no....

He already obliterated Peterson. I think he can take Collazo, although Collazo sometimes gets upset wins out of nowhere. Vargas. I just don't see him hurting DSG. The rest move too much for him, he's often very stationary and his opponent is in most danger when they're stationary too and trying to trade.

i think he struggles against the top like thurman, spence, and Brook the others he has a chance against e

I think it's 50/50 with Vargas at this point and Bradley maybe shot and gas been very inactive so he can pull that of maybe. But the rest beat I think I give him a punchers chance against Brook, with his eye injures and all but thats about it id still favor Brook to out box him in a close one tbh.

Matthysse is done. Even though he got a KO win he looked vulnerable in some spots against a C-level fighter. However, it would be nice to see the Matthysse hype train chugging again.

You can't even be sure if these top fighters would want to have a piece of the Argentinian. Danny had to demand more than what Schaefer was offering at that time, which was $1 mil. Garcia wanted $2 mil, but settled for $1.5 mil, which was a career high pay day for an undercard fight. And he snubbed Matthysse's rematch challenge since the fight forcing Lucas to leave Haymon. Don't know if Vargas would want Matthysse either. He probably wants another shot at Pacquiao or Bradley. Matthysse for now will be more suited with guys like Collazo, Berto, Rios, Sadam Ali, fellow Argentinian Chaves, etc.

IMO Matthysse can be competitive with any of the top guys. I'd like to see him in there Vs. Bradley, Vargas or Pacquiao those are the most competitive where his skillset would match up best. 50/50 with these fighters. Thurman, Spence, Porter (because of his head clash style) & Garcia he should stay clear from.

Tha****? He would KO head first porter. beat vargas. The guy showed he has a lot left.

No. Maybe Vargas, maybe

No I don't think so.

Y'all still overrating this dude huh? This guy couldn't even beat a shot to **** judah.

He would KO Vargas but I don't have Vargas in my top 10. I consider Peterson a lower top 10 guy and he's already stopped him, he would have a decent chance against other lower top 10 guys like Khan, Ponomarev, Collazo (back in RM's top 10 but not mine).

He can hurt any of them, but age, legs, and overall skill level would keep him from getting a win most likely.

I bloody well hope so, im really disappointed that Lucas never got his hands on a world title and I hope he at least gets one more big payday before he retires. But he looked good in his last fight and I hope he gets a wbo eliminator with vargas next. We shall see :boxing:

I hoped for a Yes/No poll so that I could have just selected No..
