Comments Thread For: Lucas Matthysse, Golden Boy To Discuss Welterweight Move

[aboutfkntime]

Terrible move. There is nothing for him at 147 and he is already small at 140.

He should target Herrera at 140 if he can beat Ruslan, or Troyanovsky to win a title.

PBC doesn't have any of the good fighters at 140, those based in the US are all Top Rank besides Broner.

Yea, and good point.

Lucas will get his ass beat at 147... The dude is 1-4 in big fights at 140 and was basically beat up and abused badly in 2 fights.. The 147 guys will lay waste to lucas...

Test the waters

I think he should give it a shot, go in against someone like Collazo or even Algieri, test the waters if he feels he can hang in there then good, if not move back down to 140. But facing Provo at 147 is suicide the man hits harder and fills out much more than Matthysse at the weight.

He clearly beat alexander and judas was close, and most people claim a robbery.

So that could be 3-2 in big fights.

He was frustrated vs Postol, it's so frustrating when your opponent is allowed to cheat. Headbutt and clinch, the Ward style.

How do you explain him going life and death with ****ing Molina?

Judah and alexander both close fights,, never thought they were robberies, maybe the alexander fight.. Regardless, danny and Postol both tamed the animal and beat him down.. That's at 140... Going up to 147 is a suicide mission.. I got no interest in watching lucas get dismantled by Brook or bradley, etc...
I think he needs to stay at 140 and target Broner n Ruslan rematch

[Dean_Razorback]

he needs to stay at 140, besides, gbp has nothing at 147 besides sadam ali i think.

And sadam ali would embarrass lucas badly

I told you already, Postol was allowed to headbutt and clinch for 6 rounds non stop.
About Danny Garcia.. what about Herrera? Peterson? no one is perfect

Lack of confidence maybe? Molina is pretty big for a 140, he had some trouble at the beginning but then he demolished him. Amazing how broner handled Molina after that, but was it the same molina?
