The scary thing about Matthysse's punches was that some of them were blocked lmao

Not at all man, Danny is very good fighter, but the way he fights is just perfect for Lucas. Very wide with his hooks, which Matthysse likes to counter with straight rights right down the middle, to the head and body. I have a lot of respect for Garcia, he's really taken off, but he will not beat Lucas Matthysse. That's not hate, that's just the way I feel about this fight. How do you see it going bro?Comment

Disagree with what? See, I saw this as a pick 'em fight because I thought Peterson could smother Matthysse's punches, and work him close, not once did I mention Peterson's boxing ability because we saw him get killed against Bradley, Ortiz and Khan when he opt to box. I have always viewed Peterson as a decent boxer, I'll even show you my old posts if you want, since the bold insinuates that I have an agenda here.Comment

Peterson actually caught one of the KD punches on his glove and it STILL put him down. His defense wasn't terrible, Matthysse only landed at 30% according to CompuBox (I know it's not perfect). He just hurt him when he did land and did some good body work in there too.Comment

i'm a huge matthysse fan, he's my favorite fighter right now but he doesn't have the skills to hang with Floyd mayweather, not to mention Floyd is able to actually use his reach unlike Peterson
that fight would probably look similar to mayweather/cotto (I know the popular comparison is mayweather/hatton but matthysse doesn't really fight on the inside like ricky hatton, he likes to hook and throw straight shots at mid-range)Comment

Floyd's fist is definitely bigger and stronger than Matthysse's. I know 100% Floyd got the stronger fist.
I felt it.
I never felt Matthysse's fist, but I shook his hand and the guy's grip is not as strong as Floyd's. When Floyd grips me.. he got surreal strength for someone that's 5'7 and 147 pounds. Trust me .. Floyd is a strong black buck and he WILL school Lucas any time any where any how.Comment
