Lucas Matthysse: Floyd Mayweather was promised to me and taken away!

[Johnwoo8686]

man why do all these dudes who want a Floyd fight sound like scorned ex-girlfriends when they don't get it smh

LOL this is incredibly true. Khan saying he was "hurt" by Floyd when Floyd chose to fight Maidana instead. Now Matthyse saying Floyd was "promised to me." This stuff really does sound like they are scorned ex girl friends.

Any version of Ruslan Provodnikov I've seen beats any version of Andre Berto and I'm not talking Guerrero/Ortiz level beatings, he fucks him up.



Because they feel they were strung along, Mattthysse says he was promised, when you're made a promise and it's broken you get a bit annoyed.

As fans we know better than for anyone to rely on Mayweather/Haymon but a lot of the fighters don't.

yea because losing to Danny Garcia and going to war with fighters like Molina had nothing to do with him falling out the race for a fight with Floyd. Danny Garcia was front runner to face Floyd immediately after their fight but Danny turned to fight down.

How is that relavant? Molina beat Mickey Bey (who was recently a champion) and Hank Lundy, triangle theories are useless as Lucas would beat the living **** out of many of Floyds recent opponents. (Guerrero, Ortiz, Berto now).

I don't think Matthysse felt he was getting Mayweather after losing to Garcia.

I suspect he's referring to 2014 when Haymon matched him with two low-ranked fighters like Molina Jr. and Ortiz thus making any Mayweather fight impossible even if he won both bouts by R.1 KOs.

Lucus goes to war with each of those guys......life and death. Lucus is overrated as hell on nsb. Lost to washed up Judah. Struggled with Molina and Danny whipped his tail. Lucus is what he is.

You were being groomed for Floyd, then Danny beat your ass clean. Next.

Constant nut shots and constant clinching = Clean

This guy smh.

[tokon]

Are we really still taking about Lucas deserving a Floyd shot? Really? The guy has never even fought at welterweight, never been a champion and he found a way to lose the biggest fight of is career, a fight he was the clear favorite to win. Seriously what am I missing? He didn't deserve a damn thing.

Correct. I don't know how anyone can argue he deserves Floyd after losing to Garcia, and he has done nothing since to deserve it; he isnt even a 147 fighter!

[-PBP-]

You know boxing is in bad shape when people are still crying over a fight from 2012. Nothing interesting has happened since then that you care to talk about?

[Szef]

The Matthysse hype is still alive, unbelievable

[Nights King]

I do not think that at all about Berto and I would ask that you not suggest I said this. My opinions are:

1. Berto is better than provo in every way IMO.
2. That he is doesn't make him worthy of the fight with Floyd, make the Floyd/berto fight good, or makes me think Floyd isn't going to fight again.

OK, I will confirm after the LSC/Mares fight because If I lose that I can't cover 600 quad.

Yeah and Berto would crumble under pressure from the limited fighter in Ruslan and would get knock the F out!
