It looked to me like Lucas Matthysse took a dive and then quit

    He really didn't appear to be badly hurt by that last punch, the way he fell made it seem he was acting.

    What do you think?

    Nah.

    Pac's speed and angles flummoxed him. Showed him too many dimensions.

    Lucas looked ultra nervous even before the fight and it was complete one way traffic that I think his confidence left him very quick.

    Lucas was done mentally and physically.
    LMM once truly was a monster. But that was back in 2013! One could see him mentally wilt vs Provodnikov. His heart may still be in it but his will is gone. It was broken through numerous hard fights and bad breaks.

    It's a thought sport, and not many can endure it. Especially at 35 years of age.
    (Manny is a ****ing monster. )

    Yup.
    He clearly wanted to fight, but could not get himself to do so.
    He just doesn't have it in him anymore.

    Like i said, this is not 2013 anymore.

    It looked fixed but the reality is LM was never on pac-man's level and he looked like **** in his last fight. So the outcome would have been the same no matter what.

    yes he quit after taking too many good shots.
    Even the ones that goes through the gloves were hurting him.
