ya. When KT was coming up, when Tyson was coming up, Foreman, Pacquaio. Sam Peter had the heavyweights scared. Come on John... we've both seen Matthysse's come and go. He might turn out to be special, he might not, but there are plenty of fighters who looked pretty damn scary on the way up only to falter at the top. And let's not forget: he lost to Zab, and it wasn't a robbery by any stretch.
Talked about this Sunday the inhuman puncher has been beaten time and time again by the skilled fighter with a good chin.Sanchez,Hagler,Ali,Nelson,The Jackal just a few of the boxers that have defeated the inhuman puncher.
I'm too old for it lol... but if I had those skills and a lifetime of training, I'm not seeing a boxing master in Mattyhsse. I see someone who can be outboxed and someone who can be hit. Very dangerous fighter but far from unbeatable. If I was an up and comer or someone about at his level of fame I'd take the fight in hopes of bettering my income.
This reminds me during Mayweather-Hatton in that 8th round when Mayweather was putting a beating on Hatton in the corner landing flush shots and having Rickys head snap back several times, Marco Antonio Barrera was in the audience covering his mouth in shock and grabbing his hair as if he has never seen such punishment. I thought it was hilarious seeing such a noob reaction coming from a man who has been in so many wars himself.
last time I saw the looks on the faces of possible future Matthysse opponents was when N.Y. amateurs learned they had to fight Mark Breland -- It was abject terror.
