MATTHYSSE REMEMBERS HORRID DECISIONS
San Francisco, CA– OK, Lucas Matthysse feels “snake bit.” While to some of you see his getting into Atlantic City at the last minute an issue, I don’t. While you can understand the plight of other victims of nefarious acts and crimes, say the Cleveland kidnappings, why can’t you put yourself in Matthysse’s position?
IF THE LINES IN BOXING WERE STRAIGHT
If not for his getting raped in decisions with Zab Judah and Devon Alexander, the Argentine would be unbeaten and by now well on his way to stuffing his coffers with cash. Instead the hardest puncher (33-2, 31 KOs)under 147 lbs. is fighting for his identity as a world class performer and uncrowned champion.
WILL LATE ARRIVAL HURT LUCAS?
Look, Team Lucas made a decision to travel at what some see as the last moment. If I were Matthysse, I would have come in at the very last moment as well. They are convinced that to get a fair shake, Lucas will have to put Lamont Peterson to sleep. Question is, what Peterson (31-1-1, 16 KOs) shows up? The one on prescribed steroids? Or the guy that bores you to sleep? Regardless, slumber time will come around round five for LP.
