    Anybody with a shred of common sense knows that stat was BS.

    You only have to look at him in the ring to see he doesn't weigh 163.

    Actually, kinda just comes down to having common sense.

    Seeing that he looked normal at the weigh in, normal during the fight, and his history is at the weight he says he weighed in at.

    Normal for him being low 150's....

    Gaining 23lbs is completely absurd :patsch And if you arent looking like a complete zombie at the scales (Chavez Jr, Rios, late 140 Cotto) its simply not probable. Especially when you look the same as you have every other fight, in which you consistantly weigh in low 150's.

    I'll wait for a retraction from Showtime and their unofficial weight taker b4 I take his word, or your word on it.

    He looked about 170. He need to be fighting at middleweight

    I agree with other posters saying he looked the same as previous fights however I do find it funny how a simple no is good enough to take to the bank for some. :lol:

    Golovkin weighs 164 in the ring and is 4-5 inches taller than Lucas. If you think Matthysse weighed as much as Golovkin than you're an idiot, try using your eyes and some common sense.

    Yea, somebody just needs to give in.. I have lost some of my love for the sport cause of this. How many great fights are we gonna have to miss, it's getting so common to never have the best in a division fighting each other. Call themselves champ then move up.. **** Bob, **** Fishnet..

    No he didn't.

    If my memory serves me well, Dallas looked just as big as Matthysse that night.

    Mayweather has a history which is why no one believes him when he quacks (I mean opens his mouth).

    I think he got the better of Martinez too.
