[mike1010011]

That sad moment when Lucas would take Crawford's head off in 6 rounds,yet crawford gets priority over him,at a weight class he's never fought at.

this is what ive been saying! arum is a snitch! he wont let anyone from another company to get that belt

[Bullrider]

So why can't we get Broner vs Matthysse again?

How do you explain this, again?


"Broner's trainer doesn't want him to fight Matthysse next
September 10, 2014

By Dan Ambrose:

Mike Stafford, the trainer for former three time world champion Adrien Broner (29-1, 22 KOs), says he prefers that Broner not fight #1 WBO, #2 WBC Lucas Matthysse (36-3, 34 KOs) next. Stafford wants Broner to fight for a world title and pick up a belt before fighting Matthysse at a later date."

this is one hell of a fight...

[mathed]

How does a guy not ranked leapfrog a guy who is? So if you hold a wbo belt in any other division you basically hold an invisible ranking over any non title holder in any weight class

That's ****ed up

Well, he has fought at 140 before to be fair....1-0 over Prescott if that amounts to anything.

Yet he has fought at this weight class before....one fight but he did win and took the fight on one and a half week's notice

crawford would embarrass matthysse worse than what garcia did.

[wlliam]

Damn..........seems Arum has more pull than people thought.

Everybody who follows boxing knows this has Bob wriiten all over it and as for Arum having more pull than ppl thought, the man has judges in his pocket, this move shouldnt be surprising

Matthysse isnt a featherweight. Matthysse isn't a chump journeyman. Crawford can be hit. Crawford can be stunned by a featherweight. Matthysse wins.

Crawford is a better fighter lucas hasn't looked good at all since garcia beat him
