    Lucas Matthyse destroys soto, he's too small for the weight and he has fought nobodies since guzman schooled him. he goes back to mexico to fight bums after the weekend.

    Agreed Soto's gonna get his ass kicked, fight a couple of bums then complain how everyone is ducking him.

    I'm undecided on this one.
    There is no doubt that Soto has the ability to box Lucus and win.

    BUT... Soto also hasnt shown much power in his attempts at this weight.
    Against a fighter like Matt if you don't get respect early you will steamrolled.

    I'll make my pick seeing them stand side by side.

    Guzman didnt school Soto, he was just running all night. How is that schooling? Soto could learn how to run too if he wanted to. Would that be schooling too?

    soto was big for the 126 division. Matheysse is only 5'6. If soto can take his power up with him I don't see why he can't trouble the Argentine.

    Only new boxing fans bring up fights like 5+ years ago,i hope you do realize that guzman fight was in 2007 and he hasn't lost officially since then.

    Soto was kind of avoided, i mean what big names really offered to fight him

    i will say at 140 he will probably lose most of his power but i think Mattysse can be out boxed, Soto never showed a problem taking a punch so i think his chances are very good

    Agreed Mathysse ****s him up but you better pray Aztecas doesn't become aware of this thread.
