The Danny Garcia vs. Lucas Matthysse Prediction Thread. **ITS ON!**

[joesaiditstrue]

I doubt Lucas moves up to 147, wouldn't mind seeing him avenge his Judah loss if GBP can't find anybody to pair him up with

guy is too small to move up IMO

was at the cinema watchign this fight

i had this fight very close. i didn't score but I do know I gave lucas a lot of early rounds. people around me had it very close as well.

garcia did a great job with his body work, lucas was very hesitant, but there were a lot of low blows in that fight by garcia.

lucas got punished tot he body very badly, and couldn't get wrecklesss.

I'm here, and I'm ready and willing to hear everything Garcia fans have to say. He proved me wrong, proved to be a better boxer than I thought, and earned his win. I didn't score the fight very closely, but it looked like Garcia deserved the victory close but clear. I talked a lot of **** and was dead wrong.

That being said, I'm horribly disappointed in Lucas Matthysse. On the biggest stage he will ever fight on, he absolutely **** the bed and looked to have learned none of the lessons from the Judah and Alexander fights. He also completely lost his composure, and practically gave away 3 rounds when the eye swelled. It was the worst I've ever seen him fight, and under the circumstances I cannot be anything other than disappointed.

I think you're selling Lucas incredibly short here, garcia shuts the guys eye, and still gets hit repeatedly with flush shots in the championship rounds

it was a close fight, champ gets benefit of doubt in close rds in Vegas

fight had a lot of weird moments that leaves me wanting a rematch with a Team Matthysse Inswell in the corner this time

Well I warned ya, now are you going to abandon Lucas? Why the **** did you think Lucas could just steamroll Danny Garcia like he's Paulie Malignaggi, he hits hard man.

Absolutely not "abandoning" Lucas. He's still a hard hitting fighter who's fun as hell to watch. But he was very disappointing. He was looking good, but Danny threw him off his game and Lucas ended up looking like Maidana for about 5 rounds straight.

Like I said, I was very wrong about this fight, and I'll take it all for however long you guys feel like dishing it. I talked a lot of ****.

Horribly disappointed? His eye was closed, he coulda got stopped off that eye... He had to protect it, so he couldn't throw the right hand... He never stop throwing punches and did what he could

The last round is a perfect example, when Garcia decided to let loose the last 30 seconds or so, he didn't give a fuck, he tried to match him punch for punch

How can u be disappointed?

Lucas got outboxed period.

outboxed = getting hit in the face so hard that your mouthpiece flies out of your mouth and lands in a judges lap
