Pretty big card. I don't think Alexander is the main event so Idk why he's listed first. Looking forward to seeing Ogogo and Khan's brother.

Screw Raushee Warren. The dude is a thug wannabe.

Matthysse via demolition.

If Peterson don't get knocked out and goes the distance I think Peterson can get the decision. Also depends on how Lucas really takes Peterson's punches.

I think both men will be hittable this fight.

There is no way Peterson hurts Matthysse in this fight. Matthysse has taken bigger punchers flush shots and smiled, Peterson has okay, but not great power.

Because they weren't illegal drugs? Did you miss the part where they were administered by a Dr? Do you realize that is why he was cleared and allowed to keep his belt? Did you happen to do any research at all into the matter, or did you just decide to spout off like the rest of the sheep here do?

FOH, stop spreading bull****, this is why the guy gets a bad name because idiots on the internet keep spreading misinformation

So because they were administered by a doctor, they weren't PED's? If he had informed the commission before hand, I'd feel differently. He only got caught because VADA does CIR testing, he never told anyone he was using them, so seems like he had something to hide no?

He cheated and I'm glad he got caught. Why did the WBA strip him, but the IBF didn't? So he technically was 50% cleared?

Just hoping for a good fight and a clean winner.

Can't wait for this one, I hope they engage and we see some fireworks. I'll be bummed out if Peterson boxes and backpedals for the UD but it's a viable strategy for him to win.

Prescott showed khan had a weak chin, exposed. Garcia reaffirmed that he had a weak chin. Through all of that khan was still seen as a game fighter with loads of heart and and unfortunate weak chin. Peterson exposed his 1 lack of power (kd was a trip) and 2 lack of heart bc ur boy ran like usain the entire second half of the fight. Therefore I would say he kind of exposed his lack of will and ability to be broken by determination over skill.

Firstly, Khan is not my boy. Dude is a hype job. I have no idea why GBP is using him as the final fighter in this 140 tourney when he hasn't done ****. He got dropped by a fighter who was way past his prime in Julio Diaz and was having trouble with the mini version of Carlos Molina. I do not like Khan at all. But to suggest that this mediocre fighter got exposed by peterson in a competitive bout is assanine.

Ring magazine website did another one of those 'expert predictions'. The 20 Boxing writers/insiders had it 11-9 in favor of Matthysse.

Matthysse had his house broken into and got stuck in Argentina trying to get a new passport.

While Lucas Matthysse was scrambling in Argentina trying to get a new passport, Lamont Peterson was chilling at B.B. Kings Blues Club in Times Square on Wednesday afternoon.

The most heavy lifting Peterson had to do was a string of interviews with reporters at the final press conference for the junior welterweight match at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City on Showtime on Saturday night. Matthysse, meanwhile, was staring at a 10-hour, 45-minute plane ride to New York and then a 2-hour ride to Atlantic City before he could rest easy.

Getting to town two days before one of the most important boxing matches of his career is not something that will help Matthysse. So, advantage Peterson.

Someone broke into Matthysse’s home in Trelew, Argentina, and burglarized the place. They also defaced his passport, which meant that he had to get another one before he could travel to the U.S. for his fight against Peterson. He got the new passport on Wednesday, but not in time to make a noon-time press conference in Manhattan.
