What has Lucas Matthyse done to make him an elite fighter?

[Bigg Rigg]

Matthysse is the last guy you wanna start slow against. This dude is the definition of a TWELVE round fighter. Not 4 or 6 like Khan and Holt.

Na bro, Khan can go 12. He just can't get hit too hard too many times during the 12 rds. Lol

Well, he looks cute for the first 4 or 6 rounds (except vs Prescott) then he decides to be ******ed and throw the game plan away, just like he did Saturday or vs Garcia...

The way he's talked about on here you would think he had cleaned out the division already, actually he doesn't have one good win on his resume his claim to fame is losing to the two best fighters he's fought and beating a bum from Nigeria.

Nobody would call Ajose a bum you clueless bastard.

I'm pretty sure Garcia avoided Ajose for like a year then Matthysse had to do his dirty work and mop the floor with him.

Ajose would've beaten Garcia on Saturday if it was him and not Judah.

Peterson looks to be the toughest fighter for Matthysse to face. It is hard to predict. Peterson can get knocked down by a strong puncher, but seems to shake them off quickly and get right back up. If he can get inside Lucas's power and work inside like he likes to do he has a very good shot.

Lucas is a Beast, but so is Peterson.

ajose was a tough customer 4 anyone

Ajose absorbed a lot of punishment against Matts and never stopped fighting. He deserves another shot in the spotlight.

Hell, I think Khan should fight Ajose.

[B-Bomber]

He's not elite, but a good fighter.

I think people like him because he wasn't handed any belt, because unlike Chavez jr or Canelo he had to bleed to get to the top.
Because both his losses are controversial, and because he can knock people down and out.

[richardt]

I agree. And I'll take Matthysee's straight, accurate punches over Garcia's wide punches. Those wide punches and his available chin will be his downfall eventually >>>>>>>

Anyone who's really a fan of Danny Garcia has to see the problems Matthysse poses for him. Peterson is definitely an easier fight, because Peterson will be hurt by some of Danny's short right counters, never mind the left hook, so he's never going to pour it on in the same way.

But Matthysse's chin is going to accommodate him going toe to toe and landing monstrous shots of his own on the very hittable Garcia. Danny is durable and very solid but he's just outgunned in this match-up. Opponents need to use their legs against Matthysse and that just isn't Danny's style.

[TOBYLEE1]

There is not elite fighters at 140 but there are a lot of solid fighters and great entertaining matches to be made.

Peterson/Matthysse fight is a pick-em fight. If Peterson can avoid early knockdowns it should be a close affair.

If the winner faces Danny they are both right handed and Danny's jab will come back into play. He has a very under-rated jab and body punching.

No fight here is a sure thing cause they all in the same level in a different way
