Peterson vs. Matthysse at 141-Pound Catch-Weight

Posted by: Edward Chaykovsky on 4/8/2013 .

Lucas Matthysse and Lamont Peterson are working hard for their upcoming match, scheduled to take place on May 18th at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. Peterson (31-1-1, 16 KO’s) vs. Matthysse (33-2, 31 KO’s) will be the Showtime televised fight to Devon Alexander vs. Kell Brook will headline the show. Golden Boy Promotions announced earlier today that Peterson-Matthysse will take place at the catch-weight of 141-pounds, which means Peterson's IBF junior welterweight title, and Matthysse's WBC interim-title, are not at stake.

The fight is technically being billed as a "twelve round welterweight" match. Matthysse, the WBC's mandatory challenger to champion Danny Garcia, would likely remain in that position regardless of the Peterson outcome.

wtf

Oscar has been salty with Floyd ever since Floyd took his spot as PPV king. Every opponent that Floyd fights against, Oscar always roots for the other opponent.

Golden Boy was handling the contract negotiations for floyd at one time

Somebody gettin ktfo

The stuff Guerrero got away with in that Berto fight won't work with this dude. Byrd doesn't play that dirty boxing shit, he's going to have to fight to win

I'm talkin tha peterson/mattyess fig ht

Yeah, that one won't see the final bell...that catch weight caught me off guard but I guess they're trying to make sure that Peterson keeps his belt at 140 and that Matthyse will still be in line for that title shot against the Garcia-Judah winner

Khan's career would end that night with his chin.

 

[Vader_F_Kennedy]

i read some articles on it!..think it would be a good fight

 

[Art-illery]

So Common is being the narrator for the All Access series? He might be up there with Morgan Freeman with the G.O.A.T. narrator voice! lol...

 

[dwade206]

Nah, I'll take Liev Schreiber from 24/7. Common is pretty good though.

 

[cainvelasquez]

false, oscar was a king maker, he chose mayweather to wear his ppv crown. hence the reason he gave him a fight for ownership rights to floyd.

floyd came up under him and now he let floyd get a little shine in the promotional arena so that he can keep making money off of him.

he made pacman too but arum held on tight to that nigga

great fight for broner. he gets a speed test and a skill test. but maintains advantage in the chin dept if it comes down to trading

 

[BigBallsNoWorries]

Oscar is hilarious

that fishnet wearing faggot lol

he will never give floyd his just dues, becuz for one

-he still hasnt gotten over the fact that he lost to floyd

-floyd talked so much shit and "disrespected" him so much during that 24/7 shit and hasnt gotten past it

-floyd is still in the limelight and is making bank, even though oscar is supporting him through golden boy connections

i remember they were doing this article for various boxers in the game about who hit the hardest, the smartest, the best defensive, toughest fighters you've faced

even shane gave floyd his props on i think the smartest or defensive but oscar didnt give floyd one category lol

but as Adrien Broner said, Khan has the chin of a 12 yr old boy, it would be a quick night for Khan

that being said the only niggaz i see beating Broner effectively or giving him the most trouble is Matthyse, and MAYBE Danny giving him issues

but i cant really see anyone legitametly or realistically giving Broner an issue
