Comments Thread For: Lucas Matthysse: Danny Garcia is Slow and Wide Open

[The Surgeon]

I got Machine late TKO but this is a FIGHT! Both guys have under rated skills and will be in with the best puncher they have faced, we've seen Danny buzzed but i think his chin is solid. Having a solid chin does not nessasarily mean u can take one for Lucus Matthysse though! I need this fight in my life!!! Winner vs Pacman!

Thank God I'm not the only one seeing this, Lucas has not faced anyone to really test that chin, Alexander is not a puncher, neither was soto or Olusegun.... even Mike Dallas. The only one who had a decent punch was Judah and he didn't land that many quality punches on Matthysse anyway.

Yup

Asides from Lucas power, if you watch the fight, especially round 1, i saw some things that boxer like Garcia could take advantage of.

It wasn't masterclass boxing, Lucas has flaws, and I think it could be a 50/50 toss up

Garcia has enough power to make a boxer respect him, Lucas might just walk into a bomb, he jumps in very quick when throwing and is always open.

[Cinci Champ]

Danny has no jab, so he wont be able to keep Lucas at bay, so it will be a slugfest

Although can Lucas take a punch from Danny if say a hook was to land?

I think this fight will depend on who lands the big bomb first

I wont count Danny out he has enough power to KO Lucas if he were to land flush.

i just think garcia's looping hook may be to wide open for lucas. lucas hook is so much more compact

People underestimate Danny. This bout will be closer than you all think.

mathysse vs garcia. the winner gets a shot at mayweather

[NaijaD]

That was Judahs best punch in the fight!! and he didn't land many other quality punches. show me others!! ....... you guys on here are hilarious. I'm not saying he doesn't have a good chin but the fact is it is relatively untested. Cotto and Mayweather took left hands from Judah just aswell.... are they granite chinned??

[Bushbaby]

I like both guys. But I see Lucas getting too much credit here while Garcia getting none. Lucas isn't blasting through Garcia. And I see people talking about Garcia getting wide, Lucas gets wide too. And Garcia was matching Judah in handspeed.

I expect a very good fight, entertaining and competitive. And no, Peterson is not more durable than Garcia. Peterson was dropped by Tim Bradley people, Timmy B. Also Vic Ortiz, who at least has power. Garcia has yet to taste canvas. But don't forget he has his own solid power and works the body well himself. Give the Bwoy some credit.
