Comments Thread For: Matthysse Ends Dull Fight With Knockout of Kiram

[LOCOMEX89]

Finally!!!!! It only took 7 of the most borrowing rounds to get an explosive finish.

Lucas looked very rusty and slow BUT the power is still there. He needs to remain active.

Come back in either May or June.

Next either Amir Khan or the winner of Garcia vs Rios.

That was a ****ing dive if I've ever seen one.

Matthysse is done, stick a fork in him. Peterson should go get his rematch and he'd probably knock Lucas the **** out, he's not even half the fighter he was against Peterson.

Fixed fight.

First knockdown looked like a dive. Apparently Matthysse must have a very strong straight left.
2nd knockdown was all in the straight left too, right hook didn’t look like it made that much contact

And the winner Sharif "The Tiger" Bogere!!!

A relief to see the fight come to an end.
It was painful to watch Matthysse go through the motion like a shot fighter against an unknown gimmee.

Keep him away from the live body in this division.

This version of Matthysse is SHOT!!!

that was very suspect. it looked like kiram may have just been starting to gas and decided it was time to fake a knockout in order to get out of there. the knockdowns didn't look real to me. was rooting for matthysse though so what do i care...

[jobra]

Was it a Dive?

Lucas can't beat any of the champs

Excuse yourself

Let him KO Horn and then he can return to fishing

[Dean_Razorback]

Make no mistake, Lucas did not look good tonight and I don't know how much he has left. But, that power is still there and he is now finally a world champ. Cong**** maquina. Still think there are very exciting fights at there for him if he is matched properly

i agree, he looked a lot like the postol fight. lacking ideas. his problem is his head (and of course his age now)

Maquina vs Pacquiao would still be a fun fight, otherwise I'm guessing they give Lucas a couple easy defenses of that regular belt, Samuel Vargas is sitting there in the top 15 and would make sense
