Matthysse looks [...]

What happened last night to my fighter, former world champion DeMarcus “Chop Cop” Corley (36-16-1, 22 KOs), in Argentina against Lucas Matthysee (28-1, 26 KOs) was a travesty.

By Michael Lieberman: Previously unbeaten light welterweight knockout artist Lucas Matthysse (27-1, 25 KO’s) was really jobbed in his last fight against Zab Judah in November, losing by a controversial 12 round split decision in Judah’s neck of the woods in Newark, New Jersey. Matthysse knocked Judah down in the 10th, and badly punished him [...]
