    Matthysse Would Be Better Than Guerrero For Floyd

    Seriously. Not knocking Guerrero. His dominance of Berto was extremely impressive. I thought Berto would have ko'd him. I think Lucas has more skill and pressure than Guerrero.

    Lucas would only have a puncher's chance. Floyd would pick him apart. Lucas is a beast, but his footwork is poor and he isn't quick enough to get away from counters or counter himself. Lucas would just get dominated for 12 rounds.

        This would be a crazy fight. Matthysse would definitely have a good chance. Too bad we'll never see it.

          He just knocked Dallas out last night with a counter. Dallas has as much speed as Floyd. Maybe not the reflexes, but speed wise they are about equal.

          Matthysse is far better fundamentally then people give him credit for. He's not just a face forward eat punches brawler. He shows good judge of distance, utilizes his jab, and most importantly "THINKS" in the ring. He said it himself in the post fight interview. He saw that Dallas was doubling up the jab, so he countered the first jab knowing he would be open. Took him less then a rd to see and capitalize on that. He's been an improving fighter ever since he has gotten robbed. More aggressive and smarter.

            His improvements have all been mental since the robberies. Lucas is the real deal from 140 to 147. The old guard are aging.

                Mayweather has a better chin than Dallas.
