    This fight will go like all the rest when Khan steps up. Khan will look good for the first two rounds when Lucas figures him out, because Khan does the same thing all fight, he will get KTFO.

    Did Lucas Matthysse suffer a broken orbital bone in the Postol fight?

    I know the line of thinking is probably Khan = chinny and Matthysse = hits hard, but I can see Matthysse getting thoroughly outboxed and decision'ed in this match-up. I reckon it could look a lot like Khan/Maidana, overcoming some rocky moments, but ultimately getting the job done. It makes little sense for Khan to take this fight though. Could just fight someone like Guerrero, beat him, and have a massive showdown in the UK next year against Brook. You'd have to think one more KO and that's Khan done for good at this level.

    Lucas is shot to bits and he's been in more wars than the British army and has taken more punishment and brain abuse than Arturo Gatti. He's also blind in one eye and had his hunger and passion beaten out of him long ago due to boxing politics.

    Lucas KO1 Khan

    And I do like Khan too.

    Postol is the only guy who truly bested Matthysse... Gift couldn't best a nearly blinded man with constant fouling, spitting out his mouth piece while hurt and horrible reffing for Weeks.
