    Any opponent/date/rumor for Lucas Matthysse next fight?

    I am really looking forward to his next fight my preferred options are Ruslan Provodnikov or Adrien Broner. I don't care which one of those two they both would suit me just fine.

    Any news on Matthysse return?

    He's with Haymon now, his next fight will probably be a mismatch.

      if i'm not wrong lucas is the number 1 and provo de number 2 of the wbo and algieri was stripped, that fight can happen, i don't know if gbp or haymon would let it happen anyways. i don't think lucas will fight again this year, probably the next one.

            If rankings mean anything, and of course they often don't, Matthysse's in line for shots at the IBF, WBC and, WBO belts, ranked 3, 2, and 1 respectively.

            If Garcia moves up, it looks like there's a three way split between Matthysse, Broner, and Postol for the WBC strap. Whether Haymon will allow any of those fights to happen or not remains to be seen. Would be interesting to see exactly what deal Postol made with Haymon when he took the step-aside money.

            Don't know what's happening with Peterson and the IBF belt he somehow still holds. Is he going to fight Cuenca?

            The WBO belt is the interesting one. Maybe Haymon wants it for Broner, but I imagine Arum has designs on it too, and the WBO and Top Rank have a pretty strong relationship.

            Plenty of interesting fights for Matthysse but whether Al finds them interesting or not is another matter.
