      People are doing the same thing they did with Danny. Of course they would. Lucas has, BAR NONE, the worst fans on this site. If he takes an L, they will all disappear...again.

        broner seems to be comfortable with guys who fight at mid-range and has more trouble with guys who push him to the ropes and fight inside, which doesn't let broner get any snap on his shots

        lucas can fight inside (he showed that vs Molina), and according to MA on the boxing coalition who lives in argentina, Martin Coggi is trying to get Lucas to fight more on the inside

        lucas naturally is a mid-range fighter who looks for openings to land counter shots and will open up to force his opponent to throw. Broner is a natural counter puncher, so it could force Lucas to be more offensive than he would normally want to be, believe it or not, he doesn't throw 100 punches a around like NSB would want you to think

        taylor had success when he bullied broner up close, which isn't how Lucas fights. Lucas likes to stand at that mid-range and throw straight shots, which would give Broner opportunities to counter

        If Lucas brings his inside game from round 1, I think he wins fairly easily but he can't let Broner dictate his own game

        Lots of broner hate here causing people not to think objectively, he's a good fighter
        I disagree slightly. I think Broner is actually best on the sinside. He's a better inside pressure fighter than he is a mid range counter puncher. His main issues are fighting on the back foot,and laying on the ropes in a defensive position. He rarely gets hit really cleanly but he NEVER counters off the ropes so you can just stack up rounds simply getting him there

          I'd pick Matthysse and feel pretty good about it. He'd land better and more punches all night and get a late stoppage or clear decision.

            This would be the equivalent of a tune up fight for Matthysse. If Taylor could manage to make Broner back up throughout the entire fight and the opposite didn't happen, how much more would a guy like Matthysse? This is a mismatch, but I still would like it to see it, and Broner could prove me wrong.

              At this point, I don't think Broner is a tune up for anyone. That's a huge overstatement

                I wouldn't be surprised if Broner decides to avoid this fight.

                    He's called him out twice already, he clearly wants the fight. There's no way he avoids it

                      There will be a big size difference between the two. I would favor Broner. He could use movement like he did last night and possibly eek out a W, but I'd be rooting for Matthysse all the way. He could do some real good body work and possibly stop Broner late.
