De La Hoya: Pacquiao-Matthysse a Priority For Next Year

Golden Boy Promotions President Oscar De La Hoya wants to secure a very large fight for dangerous puncher Lucas Matthysse (37-3, 34KOs) of Argentina.

Matthysse was seen in the ring last month, winning a very tough twelve round majority decision over Ruslan Provodnikov in Verona, New York.

One fight in particular that De La Hoya wants to get for his fighter is a showdown with eight division world champion Manny Pacquiao (57-6-2, 38KOs).

Pacquiao had a tough break on May 2nd, losing a twelve round unanimous decision to Floyd Mayweather Jr. Pacquiao suffered a right shoulder injury prior to the contest and further injured himself during the loss. He underwent surgery last Wednesday and won't return to the ring until next year.


"The priority for me would be to see [Matthysse] fight someone like Manny Pacquiao next year, but we'll see," De La Hoya said.

I have Pacquiao winning by 9th round KO if this fight comes off. Matthysse gets hit and rocked alot lately in his fights and I cant see him going 12 with Pacquiao.

I agree manny would legit be facing someone who has the power to put him out unlike his last 2 opponents...i still want lucas to at least pick up a belt first

true. he wanna cash out. 2 more soft touches should do it

 

[MJ Truth]

I actually don't think this fight ends up being competitive. Well, actually it depends on how far Manny falls off by this time next year or whenever this fight were to be set up.

Mayweather could have knocked him out if he isn't aggressive. See Pactoid wasn't rushing in.

Manny is going to be all fidgety and shyt.

He wouldn't dare fight in the Pocket vs Lucas

In Manny's last 11 fights, he's only fought 2 guys that weren't with Top Rank. Algieri, a guy who had no chance & Mayweather who was worth it.

Bob would rather keep it in house.

[mr. smoke weed]
