How does Crawford earn a light welterweight title shot over Matthysse? :huh Is he being groomed for a Pacquiao matchup? WBO President Francisco Varcarcel:
Title shot against who????? Chris Algeri???? Does Mathysee really wanna go that route anyway? He has been outboxed by the likes of Judah....... I scored it for Mathysee, but still. He has been outboxed by Alexander.....I scored it for Mathysee, but still. He was outboxed by Garcia.......I had Mathysee winning if not for the bogus KD, but still. Algeri has PROVED his chin is IRON CLAD. Pac hurt him ONCE. The rest were pressure KDs, and slipping. Provo hurt him once, but he went on to SCHOOL Provo. I initially had Provo winning, but upon review, it was an absolute schooling. PERIOD. So let the two runners make their fight. Mathysee needs to go after Vargas, Broner, Peterson and Garcia rematches. PERIOD. Steer clear from runners with shady promoters. He can't get the deserved outcome in those fights. He's 0-3 when boxers run from him. :nono
Having the belt in the weight below allows you certain privileges. Its how Andrade was going to get the WBO MW shot
Yeah, but Mathysee DESERVES a Broner, Peterson or Garcia fight, and everyone, including Broner, Peterson and Garcia know that any possible outcome ends with them being taken to the hospital for concussions. Mathysee is possibly the worst represented fighter in the sport.:-(
I really don't want to see Matthysse and Ruslan go to war with each other . Huge fans of both of em . Neither fighter will ever be the same coming out of that hellacious battle with each other . I still feel theres other fighters out there that them 2 can beat up on . Well for Matthysee , no one wants anything to do with Ruslan , for good reason .
Algieri/Crawford would be great. And due to Algieris height/range and movement, not as easy to predict as you would think. Those are my favourite types of fights - the ones that you struggle to predict. It's what keeps people interested in boxing. This is why both Floyd and Pacquaio are suffering in PPV numbers lately - not because of quality of opposition, because of predictability of outcome! They always seem to fight people where you can predict and visualise the fight. Having said that - props to Pacquaio for the Marquez and Bradley II fights. I was certainly not gonna take a bet on the outcome of those ones.
