Lucas 'the rabbit punch" Matthysse

[CounterPunching]

Molina got his azz beat to the point he lost some brain cells it would have been safer if he was knocked out cold early in the fight..Nothing but respect to the Gladiator

Yeah man.. I wanted to root for Molina but Matthysse been my boy for a while. Gotta respect both fighters, left it all in that ring.

It sounds to me like you don't like Lucas and want to discredit his victory. Lucas is a vicious, hard fighter but not a dirty fighter. I have seen all his fights and I have never seen him try to rabbit punch the opponent. David Haye does that. You can throw a punch aimed at a legal part of the body and your opponent can move and cause the punch to land toward the back of the head or neck. That is not the same at all as deliberately aiming for the back of the head. Lucas doesn't do that. He knocked Molina out with a blinding fast, very accurate flurry of legal punches so please quit complaining. If Lucas was doing all this rabbit punching the referee would take points from him and I can't remember that ever happening. Can you?

Good fight but not really a good look for Matthysse. Neither are going to be the same after that fight......

Agreed. I think this fight takes something out of both of them.

this is not a hate thread it is a serious question..he hits all his opponents to the back of the head 10+ times every fight he has been in

When your opponent duck down to chest level and start to clinch, best way of doing it is to hit him on the temple, if you miss, and miss you will, your punch will definitely lands on the back of the head of your opponents. But holdup, didn't he got dropped from a punch on the back of his head? He said he crumble after getting hit there.

I was just about to make a comment on this in the other thread about lucas being over hyped or whatever...Seriously this guy has a huge problem rabbit punching guys, I'm going to just assume this is something they are thought when in the clinch. It is wrong but I guess if you can get away with it then go for it. Just do not B*tch and complain when it gets done back to you. Just because you are being held doesn't mean you land wherever is available some blows are illegal . This is boxing not street fighting.

Obviously you never box in your life, here let me explain. Yes hitting your opponent in the back of the head, low blows (bellow the belt line) thumbing, extending forearm without snapping it like a jab, excessive holding, elbowing, extended forearm to use as a shield, all this are illegal that's why there's a 3rd man in the ring called referee. It's up to the referee (the 3rd man in the ring) to uphold and remind (warn) the combatants not to do it coz it's not legal. Now, if the referee is not deducting a point after so many warnings? Why not do it if you can get away with it? That's why a lot of boxers/fighters are doing it cause they get away with it. Only few fighters/boxers fight cleanly, you can count them using just your fingers ( do not include your toes).

I always thought rabbit punching meant pitty pat type punch lol.. Like a rabbit punch, fast but ineffective lol.

Tonight we witnessed one of the greatest Wars it the history of the sport two warriors battered and bloodied giving there all for the the victory and would like to start by thanking the both of them..The question that's all my mind is can Lucas win a fight without rabbit punching ? Dallas.Peterson.garcia.Molina all were hit with multiple shots to he back of the head and if you have laced up a pair of gloves or got into street fights you would know that **** really impairs your vision

What a dumass MF you must be. The guy gets cut with a head but, gets KD with a punch to the back of the head and HE'S the one rabbitpunching? Go FY.
