Lucas Martin Matthysse, who lost recently to Zab Judah in a close controversial fight, will return earlier next year to face journeyman Demarcus Corley is a both comeback and stay busy fight for the Argentinian. If he can beat Corley in a more impressive fashion than his 140 counterparts Devon Alexander and Marcos Maidana, then this sets up the possibility of a title shot for Matthysse or a fight with a high ranking 140 pounder. Good fight for Matthysse? Can he beat Corely in a more impressicve fashion than Alexander or Maidana? Will it lead him to a title shot?
No COrley is a journeyman/gatekeeper not, although I heard he got jobbed in his last fight. Alexander dominated him 2 years ago, Maidana had a few troubles with him according to reports. But still a win over Corley these days doesnt earn much and doesnt earn a title shot
if he can knockout corley it makes a statement. maidana couldn't do it, yet he garnered a reputation as a huge puncher. if matthysse knocks corley out it says something about his power. it also offers an insight into zab at the new weight being able to handle pressure.
