Comments Thread For: Lucas Matthysse Aims To Capture His First World Title

[bigdunny1]

Only due to politics. WBC or WBA didn't/wouldn't unify with the IBF so the Matthysse-Peterson fight was made at a 141 catchweight.

Exactly it's semantics and politics that he hasnt officially been a world champ he cleaned Petersons clock but like I said politics were done so the belt wasnt on the line so the loser got knocked out but shamefully got to keep his belt.

and that never made any sense since lucas was never wbc or wba champion when he fought peterson.these sanctioning bodies are a joke they change their rules every five seconds.

It would be a real shame if Matthysse ended his career without a title. Matthysse has decisively beaten Soto, Provodnikov and Peterson, all former titlists but he could never win one.

I think he loses to Postol btw.

I'm leaning towards Postol as well. Smart, rangy fighter with power in both hands. I love what I've seen from the guy in the fights that I've seen.

There aren't many fights of his on the internet I've seen 4 or 5 scouting for my man Matthysse, Postol KO'd a punchbag in Aydin and he looked pretty bad in his last fight. Postol has a 40% KO ratio so after facing punchers in Garcia, Molina and Ruslan; Lucas will feel like the hulk

May it be the year he is finally hailed as the people's champion he is seen as!



WAR MACHINE!!!

His KO ratio is deceptive to me. He has enough steam to keep you in check.

postol doesn't really have power.postol better box lucas on the outside using his height and reach advantage if he knows whats good for him.

That's an understatement. He has enough to gain respect.

I wonder if that was his sister or cousin that won a WBC title last weekend...
