Comments Thread For: Matthysse: I Would Go To 147 For Floyd Mayweather Jr.

[SpeedKillz]

while matthysse is unproven at 147, i still think that this would be one of the best fights for floyd, if not the best currently. clearly, going 7 pounds north, lucas will not lose much, if any of his power. and that devastating power he has in BOTH hands is always an equalizer, and it would certainly make for a "edge of your seat" kinda fight, cause you never know if hes gonna catch floyd or not.

personally i think its similar to the baldomir fight, but still, lucas can box and he can move, so theres always that off chance, and he is in floyds head, along with everyones head, cause that power is too scary to not acknowledge, so i like this fight alot...

Matthysse is a beast no doubt, but...let's face it guys...



He's not beating Mayweather

Floyd will want fight Canelo at 147 and Matthyse at 154...

[Sugar Q]

All this goes to show how damn good Floyd is. One minute someone can beat him then when it looks like the fight is gonna happen Floyd becomes a cherry picker.

I'm not buying Mattysse, at least not yet. He's a B+ fighter at this point. Everyone is in awe of his power and KO %, but they overlook his lack of boxing ability and inability to cut off the ring. Yes he can box, buts he's only a B level boxer at best. If you don't agree, explain why he was out pointed by Judah and Alexander who are both only B+ fighters? Yes you can argue he was robbed in those fights and I agree. However, he knocked both Judah and Alexander down and yet they were able to outbox him to make the fights close.

Judah and Alexander both have good movement. Lucas sucks at cutting the ring off. He should have ended those fights but he struggles with fighters with movement. If you don't believe that, watch the first and a half rounds of the fight with Peterson. Lucas was punching wildly that he looked silly at times. He even fell down from overthrowing. A good boxer keeps balance when punching, proving he still needs some work with his boxing. And no, Lucas wasn't looking for the KO that early, as he went on record saying he expected at late KO.

Put him in the ring with anyone with good movement and good boxing skills, ie Mayweather, Bradley, Marquez (although JMMs chin is suspect IMO), and they put on a clinic against Lucas.

Lucas needs to improve his boxing to the A level and cut off the ring, otherwise his ends up as a better version of Maidana with better boxing ability.

I won't ad any thing to this, it's perfect.
