Mathis's only other match past 7 rounds was a SD win that many said he lost to Bob Stallings, a 200 pounder whose career record was 31-32. Nice try.

This is Mathis at 230. Notice how his arms are 1/4th the size of either Wlad or Vitali. Notice how much smaller his legs are. Notice that even at 230 there are rolls above his trunks. Notice his inability to use a jab. Nothing like Wlad and nothin like Vitali.
Keep trying, Im sure a few more trips to boxrec and youll gain some knowledge.
