    I'm not defending it, it is what it is.

      Another thing, matthysse got a ass beating... People act like the fight was close.
      uh it was close. in fact matthysse would have won on the cards if garcia didn't get that knockdown which shouldn't have counted since it was clearly a rabbit punch. stop trying to revise history. he had 3 good rounds in the fight when matthysse couldn't see a thing, the rest he was super tentative and was low-blowing like golota.

            is he the champ of 143? he's also fighting peterson in a 10 rounder. he's become a joke.

              that was awhile ago. is roy jones still champ as well? he lost to herrera, fought rob salsa at 142, and now he's fighting a 10 rounder against peterson at 143. its safe to say his career has gone off the rails. he doesn't even have the confidence to fight 147 pound fighters. he has to fight 135 and 140 pounders above 140. how is that going to prepare him to fight welterweights? he doesn't even have the confidence to go 12 rounds. how is that going to prepare him for bigger stronger fighters? its so sad to watch what fear does to people.

                  Matthysse would have won if Danny would have lost.

                    Who cares, Garcias fighting one of the last credible names left in his div and really it doesn't matter because if he wins he's probably going to vacate to move up

                    And it looks like Postol gets a shot for the title I'm predicting Broner goig to slide into that fight for the vacant strap

                      The End.
                      ok did you even read the entire sentence lol. Please tell me how rabbit punching a guy and throwing him in between the ropes is legal? Pretty sure the ref is supposed to stop that and his job is to protect the fighters at all times. I'm sure i've heard or read that somewhere. Allowing a fighter to be rabbit punched and thrown off balance into the ropes where he is defenseless is not protecting them. Then again this is the same guy who allowed garcia to lowblow more than andre golota. Integrity isn't one of his strong suits.
