    So sad to see Matthysse lose like this

    I’ve always like Matthysse. This was a guy who, 7 years prior, was seen as this feared, devastating KO artist and the second coming to Julian Jackson at the time. He didn’t live up to his full potential and since his losses to Garcia and Postol he just wasn’t the same fighter anymore. He was really unfortunate to have been in the ring with another fighter who just happens to be an ATG legend with some fight left in him. It was pitiful to see him look helpless and not fight the same aggressive style he’s known for.
    I hope Matthysse retires for good. He’s had a good career and will always remember him for his exciting style and good fights.

      I don't feel bad for him at all. I've always felt he has lacked something mentally and damn near always fell short in the big fights. Obviously has the big win over Peterson, but should have beaten Judah clearly at that point of his career but he let it be close, thought he beat Alexander and that was a bad decision, but late vs Garcia he got discouraged and we all know what happened against Postol and Pacman. If things aren't going his way, he's not going to fight through. Doesn't have that type of character.

        Haven’t watched the fight probably wont

        But no one should be suprised, Lucas is the most over rated fighter the last 10 years, always came up short , he’s been done for years as a top echelon fighter and probably never was one to begin with he went life and death with Molina years ago and had they practically gave him a strap when he fought that Thai factory worker and he looked like absolute sh.it in that fight

          I agree with you

          Lucas is a B class fighter

                Stoppage in round 7, so that’s just under 21 minutes. You could see how his struggle was real.

                    i think pac felt more pain this fight than lucas did. no place for lucas to fight at now. he should retire.
