    Correct.

    I like Matthysse but he is to blame for not getting the Floyd fight.

    Had he beaten Garcia I think he would really have had a good chance of getting Floyd.

    But he didn't!

And how you can list Salka with seriousness is hilarious. Herrera was not supposed to be competetive and he got schooled. You need to accept Danny has gone backwards since Matthysse.

      Idc if you think Danny is 10x the fighter Matthysse is but arguing that Danny's had a better past 2 years than Lucas is plain ridiculousness.
      I was referring to lucas progressing more than danny that's why I mentioned size of the arena and purse. danny hasn't gone backwards, he just hasn't made the jump most, including me, expected.

      Yes I am taking Postol, same way I took Danny over Lucas and the same way I took Lucas over Provo-I value skill over power any day of the week. if I am wrong, I will gladly admit I am.

      Herrera was tough and the Matchmakers made a terrible mistake putting him in the homecoming fight. IMO danny lost that fight.

        You didn't tell me what you would call provo. Berto is an average fighter that has seen his best days and is now on the downside of his career.

        Are you really going to nitpick over the term journeyman brawler based on his not having 10 losses? Come on dude.

        Ok Provo is a tough brawler with tremendous heart.

          So you admit Matthysse has progressed better than DG in the past 2 years? And that's the point I'm making. And trust me, Matthysse will break Postol.

            If Provo is a journeyman brawler than Berto is hot garbage. Provo is a solid limited fighter, a journeyman is jimmy thunder. I'm sure if Lucas or Provo wore sun glasses indoor doors and talked half ******ed you'd like them more. Your bias is so obvious and yet you try to pretend you're an objective fan.

              Calling a former world champion who has only lost to very good boxers is beyond comprehension. Do you understand the term journeyman? He is at worst than top 10 in the division.

                Unfortunately all of this is true.

                  Matthysse was never going to get a shot at floyd, Garcia victory or not. I'm guessing Haymon sells this **** to everyone he's trying to sign.

                      No I do not think he has. We can bet on the fight. If he does, I will eat crow just like I do everytime I pick incorrectly.

                      He was going to beat Danny too.

                      What does "wore sun glasses indoor doors and talked half ******ed" mean? Please be specific.

                      Berto is a 2 time world champ whose career is better than Provo's in every way even if at this point Provo is much closer to his prime and is ahead of him right now.

                      You are basically whining because I do not hold Lucas in high esteem. Why does that bother you so much?

                      Ok, fair point. which is why I changed it to tough brawler.

                      Why are you not chastising El Blanco for calling Berto-a former 2 time world champion-hot garbage?
