    I'd be confident in saying Khan. Matthysse is a good fighter, but he's not as smart as say a Lamont Peterson. I've not really see him apply such relentlessness in his pressure and I think Khan would win. Be a good fight, I bet, though! I hope Khan stays at 140. I would love to see him fights guys like Rios/Alvarado/Matthysse. That's where he should be!

    The reason y he took his time with Judah is because Judah can bang. Alexander has a great beard and was dropped Judah still says that he has fought at 154lbs and this guy is the hardest puncher he has ever fought

    matthyse is better than maidana but he's a bit too conservative. relentless pressure fighters will always cause khan problems, but i dont hink matthyse is agressive enoogh, he'll give khan too much space and lose a ud

    Matthysse will beat him the **** down! Late TKO, Can only imagine what a powerful, Well skilled fighter like Lucas does to Khan.

    Fight close at time of stoppage.

    Khan in a good fight. Too mobile for Matthysse to ever get him in trouble. His patient pressure and timing would definitely win him some rounds and open up avenues for landing solid shots, but Khan uses his height and reach advantages too well in conjunction with his speed to get too hurt or outworked.
