What's with the Mathysse hype? He beat 1 credible dude in the last 4 years. Top 10?

    Lol Judah beat him easy. If not for that knockdown Lucas would have no argument that he was even in the fight. Zab was countering him all night long. Even in the 10th, 11th and 12th when zab was tired he was still slipping, catching and landing the cleaner shots. People watch hightlights but not the whole fight. Lucas lost basically every round before the kd.

    hes really good an he really doesnt get hyped. IMO the judah fight was really close , but he beat alexander clearly with no problem , but a don king fighter isnt gunna lose , as campillo he got ****ed vs cloud.

    keyword you say on "paper"

    so you basicly dont beleive that he truly deserved the loss in both fights.


    now true theres alot of bandwagoners.

    but ive been a fan of the guy since his judah win.

    but I beleive that when it comes to P4P ranking its a lil more logical than people think.

    you notice how carlos molina and Ricardo Abril didnt lose their rankings after their recent "on paper" losses?

    Sweet victory after getting robbed. Not to mention everything good thing now is celebrated on a much different scale because of all the bull**** lately.

    Judah and Devon were also 10 round BS fights.

    Matthysse is an animal, but I haven't seen anyone calling him top 10 P4P.

    :lol:

    I had him beating both Judah and Alexander, but I'm not so sure I'd go as far to say he did beat them. Close fights both, in which I thought Lucas won. I think I had Zab 114-113. I'm not sure what I had the Devon fight, but I'm thinking 115-113/116-112.

    But reiterating what you and I just said, who has him in their top 10?

    I've seen some people put Froch in their top 10, and as fan of The Cobra, I'm not really seeing that.

    Lol, see this shows your a fan boy and didn't watch the fights. You don't know what the **** you talkin about. Zab vs Lucas was a 12 round SD for zab. Should have been ud.

    I don't understand how anyone with eyes can say he didn't beat Judah. He won at least 7 rounds clearly and got a knock down.

    He's solid. He's been cheated, so people root for an underdog. Top 10...no way!
