Where is Matthysse at?

I am a Vargas fan so I like this fight but I know what you mean. Jessie is like 5'11" and after seeing Mattysse struggle with Postols height, this could be bad news for him. I do like Mattysse though and I would like to see him get a title shot of some sort. A rematch with Peterson would be cool. I just cant see Mattysse dealing well with anyone else. 5'6" is small in this day and age for anything above 140lbs. Hell theres a guy at 135lbs thats 5'10"Comment

He was supposed to fight Pacquiao after the Horn fight but the robbery derailed that temporarily.
Expect Matthysse to fight Jesse Vargas or Khan at the end of the year and then Manny in the first half of 2018.
Barring a Horn trilogy of course, smh.Comment

Have the abc group said Lucas is next for the Manny vs Horn II winner or for Horn if the Manny rematch falls through?
And sh^t even if they did I expect them to bend to put Crawford in that belt post-Indongo which is what I believe the TR plan is.
Randomly I wouldn't hate seeing Crawford vs Matthysse for a mandatory title shot.Comment

How did Mathysse end up so high in the rankings after 1 fight at WW. I would understand if he was a champ at the weight below. And yet people complain when its a PBC fighter who gets ranked high and gets titles shots. WBO is the weakest champion in the WW division at the moment. If Crawford wins and moves up to WW he will end up getting a title shot before Mathysse due to the fact the Crawford was WBO champ in the lower division, plus the WBO at WW is the Top Rank titleHe was never going to be on the undercard because they were waiting on a title shot for the WBO belt against Pacquiao in the fall. They like everyone else figured he would beat horn and if he did then WBO was going to make Matthyssee his mandatory next or vacate. Problem is he got upset and has a rematch first but the winner will have to fight Lucas.

Yeah the Manny loss really threw a monkey wrench and more so if Crawford beats Indongo and Arum moves him to 147 then Horn is a easy belt for him to scoop up. If Manny wins I can see him vacating/retiring rather then fight Crawford. I think Arum would of made the Matthsyee fight later this year with Pacquaio hell they were planning on making that fight before Lucas got beat by Postol. But losing to Horn puts Mattysee title shot in limbo. Worst case scenario for Lucas is Crawford wins this weekend and if Horn wins the rematch or Pacquaio pulls out negotiations. Lucas will have to wait a long time for his mandatory shot.Have the abc group said Lucas is next for the Manny vs Horn II winner or for Horn if the Manny rematch falls through?
