Lucas Matthysse Master Thread

[Hougigo]

It appears Golden Boy is calling for NO random drug testing for this fight.

I wonder why?

wtf?
I hope he's not jet lagged or anything

Jet lagged? Who would be jet lagged?

Matthysse.

Im going with Peterson by decision, but.......it all depends how he takes Matthysse punches.

[El Angel]

they were slow release pellet injections, that took 3-4 weeks for most people given this treatment to even notice any difference in the effects

yet people here think these injections automatically turned him into the Hulk for his Khan fight

a second and third doctor confirmed that his tests did not suggest someone who had abused or used anabolic steroids

Then why not tell the commision, his hometown commission, that he was being prescribed these by a doctor and using them for a condition? According to these doctors, they didn't suggest he had abused them. I just find it odd that he didn't tell anyone. You are supposed to declare things like to commission before hand.

He should have been stripped by both sanctioning bodies, why the IBF let him continue to hold their title while he was going to be suspended was garbage.

there's no good reason why he didn't tell the WSAC he was being treated for this but it doesn't mean there was intent for abuse

Peterson and his fans disgust me. They actually condone his drug use, smh

I agree. I think that is all Matthysse has going for him in this fight.

[joesaiditstrue]

anybody hear anything about Matthysse having problems making weight?

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.

They're using him as the last fighter because he draws PPV numbers from Britain and most likely Pakistan too...

Then the fact that who doesn't like seeing Amir Khan being knocked out???
I'm certain even Khan fans liked watching Danny put that beating on King Con.
