I honestly think Joshua Clottey would give him a very hard time. He is a big ass welterweight who has faced huge punchers and has a solid defense in regards to his guard. I don't think Lucas would be able to hurt him properly, and Clottey has some good power in his shots.
It's a shame he's not active anymore.Comment

Mayweather,Pacquiao,Guerrero,thurman all will give him problems! I don't think he would beat any of them.Comment

I like him against may and pac. Thurman and ortiz would be fireworks but I like lucas to beat em.Comment

Marquez is a great counter puncher so he could be dangerous and Thurman can really punch so he is also dangerous but I think Lucas can beat them after that display of skill and power he put on last night. Guerrero would be an easy win for him. Guerrero likes to slug it out and he would be in with a much better, harder punching, faster, more skilled slugger than himself. Only Marquez, Thurman, Pac, and Floyd trouble him in my opinion. He beats all the other welterweights by KO.Comment

I don't see Chuck Norris in the 147 division, therefore ain't nobody beating Baby Jesus aka MatthyseComment

Lucas moving up to WW scares me. It's like when Pac moved up to WW. You knew he'd have success with the good guys, but unsure how he'd handle the weight. Lucas is like Manny in the sense that he's good enough to move up, and beat almost anyone, but at the same time, he's not a natural WW, and he doesn't move like Manny. If his power translates to WW, then he's gonna be unstoppable, but WHAT IF, he can't take a guy like Thurman/Ortiz's power?Marquez is a great counter puncher so he could be dangerous and Thurman can really punch so he is also dangerous but I think Lucas can beat them after that display of skill and power he put on last night. Guerrero would be an easy win for him. Guerrero likes to slug it out and he would be in with a much better, harder punching, faster, more skilled slugger than himself.

I'm just picturing Lucas in that same position he was in with Peterson, when they both threw the left hook, and imagining that being a full blown WW that caught him square on the chin.
I'm probably being a paranoid fan, and expecting the worst for my guy. He might end up being even more beastly at WW. I hope so.Last edited by BUNGALOWS; 05-19-2013, 09:15 PM.Comment

Lucas certainly is not a face first brawlerPacquiao still gives Lucas problems. Lucas is a come forward, face first, brawler. You need to either have enough power to get his respect or out box him to win.
Mayweather could easily out box him, and Manny loves fighting face first brawlers. Manny has too much hand speed and angles for Lucas. And he can punch.Comment
