Eric Gomez, President of Golden Boy Promotions, is very high on his boxer's chances to shock betting favorite Manny Pacquiao. On Saturday night, Matthysse will defend his WBA "regular" welterweight title against Pacquiao at the Axiata Arena in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The two boxers find themselves in very different moments within their respective careers.

The biggest advantage Lucas has is Buboy is in the Manny's corner this guy is a joke as a trainer... even though his skills have diminished I like Manny by decision as long as he can stay away from Lucas's right hand and I thought in his last fight Lucas looked awkward, off balance, and slow up until his KO and that's the deciding factor vs Pac...

He has a puncher chance thats for sure. He has 0 chance of outboxing him but he could land a big punch and I could see Manny being KOd. Seems like his chin been a little bit on the softer side since that Marquez KO. The way he reacted to some of Bradley and Vargas punches didnt look too good. We will know cause he will get touched hard at some point in the fight.

I think Pac can get the decision aslong as he doesnt get caught coming in.

Matthysse beating a 40 yr old manny wouldnt be a "shock" to anyone

Yes I was thinking if horn can beat Pac even if robbery then matthysse who has on paper more of a reputation than horn can surprise the world and best pac. Surprise being operative word. Shock maybe going a little OTT
Matthyee isn't a bum.

Me too. Pacquiao is washed up. He said years ago he was going to retire now look at him. Another Roy Jones minus the glass chin and like Holyfield.

I've noticed here that Gomez is the only one talking up this fight, Oscar really hasn't said anything. In fact it wouldn't surprise me if Oscar forgot all about this fight.
