Comments Thread For: Lucas Matthysse Admits No Desire To Fight, May Not Return

the danny fight was 3 years ago. when a fighter "takes your soul" you dont continue to fight 3 years later. delusional garcia fans lmao. An example of a fighter getting his soul taken is what manny did to hatton...he retired him and turned him into a depressed coke head.

The Danny fight was the beginning of the end for him. Period. Before that fight he was looking unstoppable. After than fight he pretty much never looked even remotely as dominant. Lets not play games.

The difference was Hatton was a multi MILLIONAIRE , matthysse was not. When you got Hatton money you can retire whenever you want. Big difference dummy. Like I said, Danny took his soul!!

Margarito's shaking his head right now.

It's quite sad that a guy who has been in and around the top level of the sport since 2010 with wins over Vivian Harris, Corley, Soto, Peterson, Molina Jr and Provodnikov and fights with Judah, Alexander, Garcia and Postol with a decent fan base fighting on American TV hasn't even managed to keep/save a million.

I don't like Haymon or what he's doing to the sport, but you know at least the fighters are getting treated fairly decently with a decent sized purse.

That is why i would never respect some posters on here never... Am for the boxers all day every day, most promoters make 10 times what they invest in named boxers, so when i see posters on here backing what someone like Bob Arum says i just shake my head.

Yup, it is inexcusable.....

LMAO what a quitter. This fake warrior got exposed as a quitter at the very end. Maquitssy. Get the **** away from our sport coward.

This is not your sport son.

You don't respect the sport, or the fighters.

Crawl back to your hole.

If he does not fight again it is understandable. His style, along with maidana's, is not built for longevity. They did give us some great fights, but Matthysse especially, has shown a noticeable decline his last couple fights. He has been getting hurt in them. If it is time for him to walk, that is fine. There are easier ways to make a living.

That's messed up that he didn't retire a millionaire after fighting at the elite level and giving amazing fights. Either he wasted money or someone screwed him over. I think he could still be an elite but his eye keeps giving out. He was beating both DSG and Postol easily, then DSG laced his eye and hurt it, and Postol seemed to re-injure that same eye. Otherwise he wouldn't have a loss since Alexander/Judah if you can call those losses.

Damn...

Would have liked to seen him vs Broner or khan
