Lucas Martin Matthysse by KO TKO or DQ +110 over Lamont Peterson
This fight takes place in Atlantic City, at the Boardwalk Hall. The interim WBC light welterweight title is on the line and most experts are having a tough time calling a winner here. We see it differently. Lucas Martin Matthysse is 33-2 with 31 KO’s and both of his losses could have easily been wins. The Argentinian has uncanny power, as his 31 knockouts out of 33 fights can surely attest to. His punches hur even watching them and his boxing ability is underrated, as well. It’s surprising that he is only a 2-1 favorite because he would likely defeat this opponent 9 out of 10 times, suggesting he should be at least an 8-1 favorite.
Lamont Peterson is in way over his head in here. The man nicknamed “Havoc” was knocked down and lost a wide decision to Timothy Bradley back in Dec. of 2009. He was given a gift win against the now we KNOW” overrated and over-hyped Amir Khan. Victor Ortiz had Peterson down twice in round 3. In his last, Peterson stopped a washed-up Kendall Holt in eight rounds and all we can say about that is “big deal”. Lamont was also recently suspended for substance abuse. Matthysse has his career on the line in this one, and an impressive win here will ensure him some upcoming big-time fights/paydays. This one might not end in the first round, like Lucas’s last fight did, but there is little doubt that he’ll either knock Peterson out cold or it will be a slower/gradual breakdown. Either way, this one isn’t going to make it to the final bell and Peterson is not going to emerge victorious. It’ll be Matthysse who gets the EMPHATIC statement win.
