    At first I was like how does this connect to Floyd,

    Then I remembered you got that DSG agenda too....

    porter and maybe Bradley are the only ones in this list i would see winning.
    i think DSG and thurman would be in for a tough fight.

    I'd pick Porter and Bradley of that list to beat him.

    We all saw what Postol did. I hate Khan, but it's actually not the worst match up for him.

    I box, yep.

    I made a flippant comment, about a very good fighter who is rewarded handsomly for his efforts in entertaining....

    Dont take it personaly brah. Its just a boxing forum

    I never take things personally on the internet. To say he has a glass heart is keyboard warrior stuff. U should know better if u box yourself.

    Khan schools him and gets no credit for doing it too

    The only person I'd favor over LM out of those would be Shawn Porter. I think the rest all either lose or are 50/50 fights (like Bradley).

    It is a wait n see type deal. But i still believe jessie vargas stylistically the most difficult fight for him.

    Matthysse vs Thurman would probably be similar to Chaves vs Thurman, an entertaining action fight. I think Matthysse hits hard enough to neutralize Porter's rough housing as well. Matthysse would spank Vargas. Khan would probably box at a distance. He is significantly taller than Matthysse. Bradley could outbox Matthysse, but can't help getting into a war. I think it's a war that would end up being one too many.

    Berto and Broner are spent forces, Khan would never fight him , Vargas would be a great fight, Bradley? even fight.Porter is probably to strong though he could be rocked by his power. Pacman? wouldn't fight him at this stage of his career, too dangerous. Thurman ,Brook, Spence, Garcia probably beat him though it would be entertaining

    Porter - 50/50 lean Porter.
    Berto - Matty KO's him.
    Broner - Matty KO's him.
    Vargas - Matty KO's him.
    Bradley - at this point, Matty KO's hom.
    Khan - Lucas retires Kahn.

    Berto Broner Khan Vargas

    would all be good fights for Matthysse to take, and would go a long ways to rebuilding his image I think (and illusion)

    culminating in a rematch with Garcia.

    That should be the path for Matthysse. All those fights are competetive, but winnable....


    Thurman, Brook, Spence, Porter, Bradley, all would make Matthysse retire again, and should probably be avoided at this point.

    Matthysse vs Broner or Khan are both pretty damn fun fights to be made.
