Also Maidana has won some of his fights against good names fighters, such as Ortiz (at the time), Broner, competitive with the p4p number one. But he did lose a few too, but had good management after he lost to steer him back.
Lucas has only really 1 good win against Peterson. That fight could have given him good momentum going into the Garcia fight to go on to have a lot of success and more hype if he won but he simply lost to Garcia and it Lucas just stalled a bit.
He also lost to Judah and Alexander, and even if you feel should have been given the decision, he still didn't do look that convincing and they were very, very close fights. If he's as good as people thought, he shouldn't be allowing the judges to give Judah a possible win over him.
So i suppose he just never got any momentum because he lost to fighters that are not that great and the time he could have build it, such as against Garcia, on a big stage, he lost.
He's not quite as good as some people want to believe, he has a good punch but he's very beatable.
