Comments Thread For: Matthysse's Trainer: Lucas is More Than Just a Puncher

[bojangles1987]

Anyone still saying Lucas is just some brawler, I question whether they are actually watching him fight.

[bojangles1987]

The guy in your avatar is what you're trying to describe and Matthysse is no where near that. "Slick" absolutely not. JMO

Duran was slicker than "slick boxers." If we hold every pressure fighter to that standard, no one is slick.

Matthysse does a good job. He's not easy to hit unless he's fighting a Floyd or Pac who are fast and accurate, but how many of those are there around?

What the hell are the ****** fans gonna do on Sept 15th? Who can they jump ship to next? It will be interesting. They rate Zab very highly maybe Zab in his Paulie fight.

The odds released for Garcia v Matthysse at Bet365 opened on July 22 with Matthysse -275 and Garcia +200.
I wonder why.

That's because unlike the average Garcia fan ***tard, people that do have money to bet have some common sense.

[El Angel]

Matthysse does some very subtle defensive moves that get overlooked because everyone is just waiting for him to destroy the other guy. Sets his shots up very well and gets good leverage on them, which occasionally has led to him over-throwing his shots, like when he fell against Peterson. He's a LOT more than just a puncher.

Danny fed off has beens.
Now he has a live dog in front
Of him. Different ball game

I guarantee you that Danny Garcia does not make it to the end of the 5th round. (Unless he runs for his life and uses his gloves as ear muffs, which he won't do)

I see some subtle moves Lucas makes in the ring. Danny has some too, although it's probably gonna be just a matter of a few rounds before Lucas catches him. But as far as a great matchup, this one is the goods. We'll definitely find out where each fighter fits in after this one.

Yea Matthysse is so good that he got schooled by Zab Judah..gtfoh. Lucas is a power punched nothing more. Lol Danny's gonna pull yet another upset so be ready

[mathed]

Judah won like 2 rounds vs Danny,just like every other elite fighter he fought,but he hit Matthysse with one counter uppercut and he was shell shocked, probably made him think of some of those whippings Maidanna handed him back in his amateur days.

LOL, Theophane nearly beat him....I forget, was he ever really even considered elite though? I'd say more of a gatekeeper which makes it worse when you think about it.

People need to go re-watch the Judah-Garcia fight and see just how wide open Danny is when he is throwing those rights. If he is even half as sloppy against Matthysse as he was against Judah, he will get destroyed in under 2 rounds.
