I know that a one hitter quitter could catch ANYONE

[El Angel]

I know Matthysse stops Floyd.

[BoxStat]

Matthysse is unreal, but i think it's only a matter of time before he gets out-boxed, and it won't be by anyone near Floyd's level. I think there's a few boxers out there who'd have a decent chance, and i think Floyd would lightly punch him in the face all night long without getting hit.

There's a little too much Matthysse hype around these parts, we all need to calm down a little me thinks. See how Garcia goes then put him in with some real talent.

I think he'll always be an exciting fighter though and there's always going to be someone to feed to Matthysse that'll make a good watch.

That shell defense, them arms will be fractured allover by the end of the night, lucas has god-like power that penetrates the guard regardless, earth shattering. San Andreas fault line? Matthysse did that, blame him.

[Owlzfan84]

he would have a shot. He's mentally tough, and he knows what he needs to do to win. The other thing is that Mayweather can be a dirty fighter, which Matthysse will not let slide. He'll start hitting him with some stiff rabbit punches in retaliating to Floyd s infamous elbow roll. I'd still favor Mayweather, but Lucas will force Mayweather into his A+ game.

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

Another guy that will be dominated by Floyd and Floyd will be discredited post fight like always.

We had this same conversation a few months ago. Back then the name was Peterson instead of Garcia. Lucas was going to get exposed, but then he trashed Peterson like a rag doll, and Peterson is better than Garcia.
He already ran over the IBF 140 champ as is he wasnt even there, after KO Garcia, what "real talent" would that be left to beat? After Garcia he has to fight Floyd.

Matthysse just isn't a threat to Floyd. He wouldn't get near him.

Right. Because master Cherrypicker just levitates above mere men. Bum azz Ortiz had Floyd against the ropes and was mauling him at will, you're saying Matthysse, being a more power puncher, smarter, more accuate and overal better boxer cant to the same or better? 50/50 fight, and if I had to bet I'd bet on Lucas. Lucas is exactly the kind of boxer Floyd has always ducked.
We're talking about Cherrypicker being the GOAT and what not, and he's fighting bum after bum. He ends up fighting a 23 year old all green and slow as a snail. GTFO!

[Weebler I]

Depends on whether his power carries up at 147. If it does LM would win.

[Bushidō]

But do some of you really believe that Lucas Matthysse would beat Mayweather?

No. Maybe like 3 or 4 years from now when Mayweather's reaction time slows down big time.

[Bushidō]

Another guy that will be dominated by Floyd and Floyd will be discredited post fight like always.

This. The response will be that Floyd beat a wild brawler who was beating taxi cab drivers.

Then the fans will say he's ducking whoever the most hot popular name is at the moment.

i love Matthysse and would root for him but i dont see him beating Floyd...
