    Matthyse only said "They told me it was going to happen this year". He probably meant Golden Boy told him so that doesn't mean Garcia's team has agreed.

      When during the interview did he say Garcia " has agreed"?

      He didn't I don't believe unless I'm mistaken?

        Exactly.

        There's no way in hell Garcia pulled out of the Judah fight to sign his own death warrant against Matthysse prematurely.

        If he's pulling out it has to be due to an injury, poor conditioning, bad training camp, family illness, or something of similar magnitude that would effect his ability to be 100% on February 9th.

          he's fighting his mandatory ffs, it's not like he's going up in weight to fight a welterweight champ, that would classify as a "ballsy move" and him and pops are so arrogant they probably think he can easily beat matthyse

          stop giving "props" for fighting a mandatory, he has to do it or else be a laughing stock.

          Matthyse by brutal ko
          He doesn't have to take this fight and potentially ruin his stock.

          He could make a lot more money a lot more safely by continuing to avoid Matthyse in favour of Zab. Bigger money fights.

          But if he has pulled out of that fight in favour of Matthyse, hell yes that is a ballsy move.

          This could destroy all the hype he got out of beating Khan and Morales in a single round. Make no mistake, he would probably benefit from avoiding this fight.

          That's how it works nowadays.

              Sadly yes, that is how it works but it doesn't make it right.

              He should fight his mandatory, the best i can do is give him "credit" for not being a ducker, but that just seems off to me.

                I see what you're saying, but the trend has been set for fighters to take low risk high reward fights and Garcia has plenty of those available.

                Maybe he's just been taunted into action? I don't know.

                    Mathysse did even got hit in the Dallas fight so they might make the fight quick, maybe in April, I hope. It could be the reason for the sudden withdraw from jugah fight.

                      No one in that video said the fight was happening. All I heard is it might happen this year. If it is happening sooner rather than later, than I'm happy Garcia pulled out against Judah the coward. Get Garcia/Matthyse in the ring asap.
