      Lucas, and it ain't even close. I think Lucas is also more talented though. I wonder if a certain fighter loses, how many threads like this we'll see.

              lucas was being hyped by a bunch of people in the internet and outside of a the ring magazine cover he never got the attention of someone like broner for example. those guys that were hypping him and left the train when lost to garcia weren't real fans (like they do with every other fighter) lucas real fans are still around and never put him in a pedestal (i know i never did)

                From what i hear Lucas was hyped on this forum ,but Lacy had hype from industry ,Lucas never had hype from insiders .

                    Agreed. The boxing industry wanted Lacy to be the next big star. The fans wanted Matthysse to be the next unstoppable monster. Neither one lived up to their expectations.
