Matthysse is actually a pretty good all round boxer, but since he dropped two decisions he doesn't fight like that anymore.
Now he comes out to KO his opponents as early as possible. It works because he has devastating power but he needs to be careful against Garcia because he has some power of his own.
I agree with the power and yes Matthysse can win if he catches Garcia., for me Garcia has perfect timing and decent power himself and the longer the fight goes on the better it is for Garcia so I am looking forward to this one, but I'm rooting for the underdog in this one. 2 massive fights on the night for true boxing fans.
The longer it goes the worst. Matthysse has brutal body work and Garcia fades late in the fights.
In this case " the highest KO rate" in the sport today means that Lucas has won 34 fights -- of which 32 by KO.
If there's anybody active with a higher KO rate, please let me know.

It will be interesting to see if it goes to the later rounds as Matthysse has only been passed round 6 once since 2011 - so his stamina has not been tested all that much but like I have said his power is not in question ands if Danny takes this into the later rounds anything can happen.
It seems these new boxing fans hold KO's higher than actually boxing skills. Saying this will be easy work for Matthysse is downright disrespectful to Garcia. Garcia has the better resume and in my eyes Lucas is quite unproven...Call that Zab fight what you want but thats what happens when you leave it in the judges hands. Either way, both of these guys' styles are tailor made for Mayweather. Just another UD.

Matthysse's stamina has never been an issue to this point in his career, whereas Garcia's has. It would be a shock if Garcia was stronger in the championship rounds, if the fight even reached that point.

You're mistaken.
That was against Olusegun which was last year.
Total number of fights is different from KO rate. Wilder's KO rate is 100%. That's greater than Matthysse's KO rate.
1) "... Vitali hasn't retired yet." Then, what and when would be his next fight?
2) "Wilder's KO rate is 100%. That's greater than Matthysse's KO rate."
According to this logic, every dude who has only one fight and he won it by KO has a greater KO rate as compared with Lucas. OK... I give up.
