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

******. Re-watch the fight. He hammered Matty with jab, right hand, left hook all night. He was out boxed after like the third round, getting dropped by a bomb in the eye socket that Matthysse described he felt a pop in his eye, and couldn't see. I'm a big Matthysse fan, but I don't want to see him get embarrassed and hurt, and that's where he's headed if they ignore his last two fights. Don't manage with your hearts remembering the fight machine he's been. But manage with common sense for what you see today.

Postol was ultimately just too big for him. He's nearly 6ft, Matthysse is 5'6. It was like all those 6ft 2 heavyweights against 6'6 Wladmir Klitschko. Like Wlad, Postol is good too, can't take his ability away from him.

Is Matthysse shot? I don't know, but 147 is the absolute worst place to find out.

Agree... Nobody believes until they get mauled in the ring like Oscar did with Pacquiao. I like Matty a lot, but he had no game left fighting Postol. And these die hard experts are going to find out first hand when they pull Provodnikov-Matthysse 2 together as they are leaning now towards. That will be a sad night for Matthysse fans.

Postol was just a stylistic nightmare, trust me Provo will get his ass beat again.
