Comments Thread For: Schaefer Confirms: Matthysse Now With Al Haymon

[Mr. Philadel]

I doubt it. Haymon doesn't put his marketable fighters up against high risk-low reward type of opponents like Lucas. That's probably why he signed him in the first place, so Danny won't have to fight him. He knows Danny is marketable and apparently he also knows Matthysse murders him.

Lucas aint murdering ****....he'll get beat by Peterson anyway so this Garcia-Lucas debate is irrelevant atm....Garcia-Peterson on Sept 7

Not even steroids can save Peterson. He's doomed

If Peterson upsets Lucas, I have no doubt he's fighting Floyd in September probably. He'd have wins over Khan and Lucas, arguably be the #1 guy at 140. And I highly doubt Floyd-Canelo happens this September, Khan-Alexander will probably fight each other, there would really be no one else.

I agree and think Peterson will be the next opponent for Floyd, and certainly don't have a problem with that if he beats Lucas, but it would be nice if Peterson fought and beat Garcia or Alexander first in September before fighting Floyd. I think Floyd may find it difficult to sell a Peterson fight in September, and will probably put it off until December because of that.

[any craic lad?]

Great news for Lucas if he gets by LP which is gunna be very tough then the Garcia fight is naturally next.WAR LUCAS

[wazaa.]

I just hope this doesn't mean that Matthysse-Garcia wont be happening anymore if Matthysse manages to beat Cheaterson.

Damn son, all the stars are lining up for Lucas. First Peterson, now he gets signed with Haymon and Garcia is next on the menu.

They want an unification fight for Garcia...
As long as the Matthysse-Peterson bout is going to take place at the "catch weight" of 141 lbs (!?!), the IBF belt is not at stake...
Therefore, Peterson "is expected" to win and then offered a "sacrificial lamb" to Danny Garcia.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

that's obviously what it means, it was the first thing I thought of when I read the title. haymon fighters very very very rarely fight each other

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

I'd like to point out that signing with Haymon is not always a good thing... look at Lara.

So after thinking it over Idk what to think of this move.
