    If you want to bet on Matthysse, might as well bet on him winning by knockout with better odds. It's unlikely he'll win a close decision because at worst Alexander will throw a lot of meaningless punches in between the heavy ones Lucas lands and steal rounds.
    And, that's all there is to it.

      Yes.

      One of the judges for this fight scored Kotelnik-Alexander 116-112 for Alexander.

      It's a Don King card.

      Alexander has a good chin, but I hoping for a Lucas KO. That's the only way he can win this fight.

        Cause Americans like to over hype their fighters. Alexander was a fake champ and Tim Duckins exposed him. Matthysse will win and by TKO too.

          Im a Lucas fan and even i think Matthysse should be underdog the only top fighter Lucas has faced is Judah and while he probably did enough to win it was against a faded but still good Zab.Devon on the underhand has faced Witter,Urango,Kotelnik and Bradley.Matthysse against one of his only other known opponents,Harris, looked alright but apart from one or two moments didnt look like doing a number on Vivian and at a stage where his eye was rapidly closing shut got a shocking stoppage from the ref after slightly stunning HarrisIts either Matthysse by ko (as Lucas is a big puncher to the head and body and Devons heart is in question,while Lucas has a good beard and Devon outside of Urango hasnt shown punching power) or Devon by ud(its in his hometown plus Devon still is a very good boxer).Hoping Matthysse can ko Devon but would'nt be suprised to see Devon win on the cards
