Comments Thread For: Lamont Peterson: No Fear of Matthysse, I'll Go Toe To Toe!

[GRUSTLER]

The only problem is Matthysse hits harder and works the body too. Basically, anything Peterson does Matthysse does better.

I would think that Ortiz was a bigger puncher at 140 than Matthysse. Could be wrong though. If not bigger, definitely equal.

As this fight nears I'm starting to think its going to be Matthysse. Bradley did have Peterson hurt bad. Matthysse was literally stopped or dropped everyone he's fought except 2 people and 1 of those 2 got DQ'd. Peterson might have the physical strength on the inside but he isn't going to be able to come in on Lucas like he did on Khan without tasting canvas. He's going to getting KO'd in the process. I just see this fight ending in KO its Lucas' time. His punching power is real it has translated to the world class level. I think Peterson is slightly overrated at the moment I really felt he lost the Khan fight and he did not look great early in the Holt fight.

The thing is,the two world class fighters(Alexander and Judah)Matt's showed power against have no inside game to speak of..They live at mid range and like to walk their opponents into counter punches..Peterson can fight at mid range(and for some of this fight I expect to see him do so)but also can go inside and **** and show physical strength doing so..We're going to see Matt's pushed like never before..But at the same time Matt's is going to push Peterson to the brink as well..Very good match up right here bro..

Every fighter is obligated to say that, lets hope he stays true to it

Really pumped for this fight

I hope Peterson isn't underestimating Matthysse. Although Matthysse is a bit overrated on here I think Peterson will win a wide UD.

[P-4-P-King]

I think Peterson will win, but he's beginning to sound like he is underestimating Matthyese's power a bit. Is he the booggie man? No. Is he powerful enough to KO Peterson If he's gonna stand toe to toe? Yes. Best thing for Peterson to do is move for a few rds then get on the inside. He couldn't go toe to toe with Ortiz, let a lone Matthyese..

I think even if he tries to move Mathysse will eventually catch him. Hes gonna cut him off and get him. Kinda like what he did with Ajose

Bad comparison to Peterson.

Peterson is a cheat and a disgrace and if Lucas doesn't get it done Garcia certainly will.

I wouldn't have fear if my body was pumped full of steroids too.

Says the guy with a Margarito Avatar. A fighter who got caught cheating with Plaster of Paris in his wraps. Ain't that ironic.

...Atleast there isn't plaster in his gloves...
