How good is Humberto Soto? I say he beats Matthysse no problem.

    Man this guy can box. He can jab, throws hooks, uppercuts, combos, fight inside and out. He's got pretty good defense, good stamina and a good chin. All around i like this guy. Soto is too multi-dimensional for Mattyhsse. I dont even think i can give Matthysse a punchers chance because sure he can crack pretty good, but on this level, he cant put enough of em together to get his man out, plus Soto has some solid whiskers.

    Matthysse is criminally underrated.

    Both guys are dangerous and spoilers,that's why their facing each other,because the top names will avoid them at this point,i think the winner should get a title shot.

    He's okay. I knew he would come up short vs Alexander. Definitely saw him winning but he starts slow and isnt as active as id like. Slow but not a bad boxer. I see Soto winning a UD

    He clearly beat Alexander and was Jobbed on the St. Louis Cards. Same as Judah.

    Both under rated Soto maybe more... and they do seem to be avoided.

    Is should be a very good fight where experience and skill makes the difference. Soto by decision.

    They were close fights though, only a couple of rounds in them IMO. Matthysse is good, but not at the highest level I don't think. I don't rate Soto much, but it's not out of the question him beating Matthysse if he puts on a really good performance.

    About six rounds into the fight you guys will all realize Matthysse is DUCKING Soto.

    Soto is moving up to a weight at which Matthysse has proven to have big power. I think eventually that power will slow Soto down and Mathysse gets a come from behind win.

    This should be a really entertaining fight.

    I think Mathysse will win by late TKO.

    He's getting Ko'd. Mattyese is way too big for him and a skilled puncher. Soto grinds guys down.

    Soto will win a 12 rd decision.
    Unless Matthessye can score a KO? Or multiple KD's.

    Soto's biggest problem will be getting Matth's respect.
    (Soto's power is limited & 140)
