    Difference is.. Matthysse can actually take a class punch. Mathysse timing is very underrated which makes me believe he would blow away king khan.. Timing beats speed anyday of the week.

    Good timing? Really? He looked silly the way he missed at times. Just so happens when he does connect it's pretty damn effective.

    Decent speed, but look at his footwork and how he was struggling to cut off the ring when Lamont was moving. It was when PETERSON came inside and played into Matthyse's hands when he had trouble.

    Yep the Maidana beating was the start of Khan's decline. Took too many punches in that fight.

    There was some talk on a podcast, cant remember which one, the other week saying that Khan might need to 'Cash out' if he is not going to be a force at World level, might the Mathysse fight be the one?

    Lamont was a coward, you can't run for 12 rounds. Lucas fell over in the 3rd because he was too excited he knew he had pederson hurt and wanted to finish the job. No need looking too deep into that incident.

    Why are you downplaying the performance?, looked silly?, Pederson looked silly to me, knocked down 3 times and didn't do anything significant in all 3 rounds.

    If you insist on insulting one of the men's performance last night, please insult Pederson as he got destroyed in brutal fashion.

    If that's his mindset, which I don't necessarily disagree with, there are far safer fights with less risks out there for him than taking on Matthysse. Peterson for one or up to 147 to fight either Alexander or Brook. He'd have a better chance in all of them and would likely be paud better too.

    How did he struggle? He had him out on his feet in a round and a half. Id call it pretty good cutting off the ring !

    He's stupid/brave enough to take it, and he might do well for a few rounds... until Lucas drops the big one, then it's all downhill from there.

    Does that sound like a skilled, intelligent boxer though? Running isn't being a coward when you are up against a puncher like LLM, it's just a different style.

    Hardly downplaying the performance, what he has is insane power and he showed it again. But I'm not having this talk of him now having great skills too.

    Amir's Chin will transform into granite when he moves to 147.
