Lucas Matthyse 27 fights, 25 KOs, only ONE fight went past the 4th round...

Yeah...that's how it's worked out so far...:conf

Were you planning on getting to the point of your thread?

 

And? This isn't much of a start up... I guess I'm asking, what is you are looking to discuss?

Kid looks solid. HIs level of comp is bad, but that doesn't mean he's bad. That said, hard to gauge him just yet, since Comacho looked like crap and has for years. *EDIT OOPS...read Lemiuex for some odd reason...

 

I was wondering that myself.

 

When the level of competition is poor, you look at whether that level of competition has been dominated.

In the case of LMM, it has.

We'll know a lot more about him in a little over 24 hours.

Until then, acting like his lack of quality opposition so far is proof positive that he brings nothing to the table is...pretty silly, to say the least. The punctuation on his record right now is a question mark, not an exclamation point.

 

His stoppage of viscious vivian was pretty shitty if you ask me

 

It shall be very interesting to see Judah in with a guy who is willing to punch back in recent times.

Very intriguing match-up.

 

Actually he was in fact beating Harris up. The fact that the stoppage was premature shouldn't take away from that (but unfortunately does, as that's all people want to talk about when mentioning that fight). Vivian was getting dents pounded into his ribcage and was en route to ***** Street, the hard way.

 

That didn't mean too much for his brother

 

The ref still could of give vivian the benefit of the doubt & let him go a bit longer.....either way i dunno what to make of matthyse i only seen that fight & vivian was past shot by then aswell

 

Lucas is nothing special, average hand speed, decent work rate but not elite at all, i'm pretty confident Zab will beat him easily, something similar to when Cintron knocked his brother out, he will get out-boxed and then TKO'ed.

 

Yes! Harris said that he was trying to tie Matthyse up after getting caught with that right hand but he was obviously stubbling forward in a haze. The fight was stopped prematurely but Vivian was badly hurt by that punch and was a 7-2-3 away from getting sparked ...not to mention that he looked winded in round 3 so the end was near in either case.

 

I remember reading ESB after the fight and the forum made it sound like Harris was completely outboxing Matthysse and the ref basically saved him.

When in reality Matthysse was just starting to pound on Harris and was on way to knocking him out.

The stoppage was definately one of the worst i have ever seen though.
