    If this is true, this is shaping up to be a great card!
    Can Broner upset Matthyse?
    And can Cotto retire with a win?

    I was going to not bother watching a retiring fighter's last fight, but Broner-Matthysse is must see! Matthysse is a harder puncher than Maidana! May be as hard a puncher p4p as Lemieux. Gotta say Broner's got balls. Broner has the speed advantage, and Matthysse is more a classic boxer than the awkward Maidana, so Broner may have an easier time outboxing Matthysse. Perfect fight to end the year with!

    This would be awesome, two excellent fights. I give credit to Broner if he goes straight in with Matthyse after Garcia, that would be admirable.

    Broner is a great human testing his limitations...

    This fight might be the fight were Broner gets stopped. To his credit a very exciting fighter

    How long has Mattysse being inactive for?

    And why in the H:x does Broner get so many opportunities?

    I don't watch Broner fights unless I'm expecting him to get busted up. So, this is certainly one I'm gonna watch.

    I saw Matthysse fight not too long ago, he looked really good, he will test Broner's chin if they can keep Broner out of jail..............................has the power to knock him out, but Broner has shown a good chin......................Lemieux has the power to knock Cotto out if he lands flush...............

    Because he is an exciting ex-champion, willing to take on risky fights. Any Ex-Champion who decides to take anybody after getting dethroned will get lots of offers.

    The typical dethroned champion, falls into inactivity until his $ goes down. Broner is doing the right thing for himself & boxing fans

    Broner is making a living getting beat by guys who are easy to cheer for.

    Yes, but he might not realize what he is getting himself into..........................we really won't know until the fight is over..............................he might be overlooking Matthysse, if so, he could pay for it................

    He knows exactly what he is getting into...He wants to prove something

    Matthysse is accepted by most boxing fans as the hardest puncher in the southern hemisphere of Planet Earth

    Matthysse is a natural 140. I will not pick Broner to beat any good fighter above 135.
    Matthysse will beat him up.

    Big chance for Mattyse to make him self-relevant again. Broner has some decent attributes and loosing to Garcia will of hurt his career. Crossroads fight really. Lucas has a few miles on the clock and has been KO a few fights ago

    Would like to see Broner brutally sparked but will probably get a decison win

    As much **** as Broner gets from everyone, he proves time
    and time again that he's really a dog and will fight anyone out there.
    He's called out Matthysse for years.
