Sergio Martinez had some words for Lucas Matthysse after finding out that his friend won't fight in the Canelo-Khan night. "If Lucas wants to take some time off boxing today, he probably won't come back" he said.
Martinez told the press: "If Lucas makes a step aside or a step back, it's very difficult to come back. It's now, still hot/active, where he has to decide if he wants to keep boxing", he commented.
As was informed by Eric Gómez (GB Promotions vice) Matthysse is not 100% recovered to come back on May 7th.
Regarding the Postol fight and boxing in general, sergio said: "You have to see the price he wants to pay for a victory. Today, I have a broken leg and I can't move my shoulder, but It's the price I wanted to pay. It was my life or my opponent's life. I was totally convinced. But not everyone is the same. Lucas has overwhelming talent, but maybe his priorities are different, which is logical and understandable. He has a daughter, it's difficult. I wish he keeps fighting, I'm his fan. I consider myself his friend and he's a great guy.
In that sense I respect him a lot because I knew him and I discovered a great person. I think that if he wants to keep boxing he should do it, but also keeping track of his health. Personally I would have done somethin different. To beat me you had to kill me eighteen times."
