Every time the momentum is about to shift in his side, something bad happened.
He wins round 6 big, only to get his eye closed by a freaky jab
the following round.
In round 11, he hurts Garcia early, knocking his mouthpiece out.
The ref halts his momentum by giving Garcia time to get a new
guard and recover.
Then in round 12, Matthysse gets desperate and goes ball$ to the
wall, pressuring effectively and busting up Garcia. He loses his
momentum again when Garcia deliberately hits him with a low blow.
It just wasn’t his night. Props to Garcia though for fighting like
a vet and turning it up when he needed to.
