Lucas Matthysse is an underrated boxer!
People seem to have the misconception that Lucas Matthysse is a face first brawler/slugger however he and his team have stated multiple times that he is a boxer first then a puncher but has that one punch power to end the fight. If you watch all his fights in Argentina, he breaks down his opponents with that grea jab then KO's them (like the Molina fights).I admit he's got lazy and gone for the KO lately but only because he was robbed in the Alexander fight (I had Lucas winning by 3 points) and the Judah fight (could have went either way, I had Lucas by one point).
