    If Horn believes he could beat Matthysse, that would put him in an incredible position in the division.
    (Not that i rate Horn highly, just looking at it from his perspective).

    Although Matthysse is backed by Golden boy, could Horn draw him to the US?

    I think Mathysse vs Amir Khan might make sense if Khan wants to come back. See if Khan can outbox a puncher or if Mathysse can re-shatter that glass chin. Good payday for both. Intriguing fight.

    He still has fight in him. Definitely the underdog against the creme of the crop, but clearly has a puncher's chance.

    The under on vbookie would've run out halfway into the 9th round.

    I used to be a fan of Lucas till I lost all my v-cash betting against Postol. Same with Groves against Jack, but I'm back on that bandwagon lol.

    It looked fixed to me. Now I'm curious what was in the jar and whether it would have warranted a NC. I'm sure it wasn't Vicks Vapor Kiram was huffing in the corner.

    I honestly think he didn't recover from the first.

    The way he is pretty much spark outm two seconds later jumps up and then returns to his haunches, suggests to me that the guy isn't really aware of what he's doing.

    Jesus Christ, stop being such a snowflake, did I hurt your feelings? He Is Shot To ****. That much should be clear, as a genuine TRUE fan of Matthysse's, I will call him worthless at this point, in terms of being a P4P fighter, sure he can still KO tin cans and Argentine cab drivers, but he needs to hang them up, I have zero desire to see what happened to Robert Guerrero happen to him. Sometimes the truth hurts, well, he needs to hear it.

    What the **** does being an internet warrior have anything to do with what I said? Did I challenge Lucas or something?

    Probably tiger balm. It's a menthol cream.

    Seems pretty scummy now that I look at it.

    I don't believe anything that convenient in boxing happens by accident

    :lol: That's why I still harbor a vicious hatred for Postol, and can't wait to see Prograis knock his ass out cold.

    I wish he was huffing titanium, maybe he could have taken that power jab better from Lucas. As it is, I didn't win my bet and now I'm depressed. I'm going to chase it next week with Gassiev by KO.

    Lucas is the hardest puncher in the last 50 years of the sport and even a grazing shot by him can lay a CW out.

    Postol beats him and strengthens Crawford's resume even more :campeon:.
