By Dallas Orysiuk Danny “Swift” Garcia is considered by fans and some analysts as the best at the light welterweight division. This has been called into question by some, with the name of a fighter from a small Argentinean town chiming in the background. After tonight… we should really call into question the ring magazines rankings, because there is no doubt that Lucas “the Machine” Matthysse is the best fighter in the 140 lb. division.
Lucas Matthysse like his nickname is a machine! He has tremendous KO power in both hands and poses underrated boxing skills. He is patient, disciplined, mixes it up, going upstairs and downstairs, and has a solid chin. He has an impressive resume with a record of 34-2-0 with 32 knockouts.

The matchup is so awful that when it was first proposed ShowTime or HBO refused to televise it. Sugar Shane Mosley, although a legend, is beyond shot. In all his fights lately he tenses up and barley throws punches. Even Paulie Malignaggi, who himself is past his prime and a B level fighter, would not stoop as low to fight Sugar Shane.
By Dallas Orysiuk: Floyd “Money” Mayweather is arguably one of the greatest boxers of all time, and undoubtedly the current number one pound for pound fighter in the world. Being the highest paid athlete, thanks to his 6 fight deal with ShowTime, he has 5 fights left to go. The question looms whether Floyd will fulfill the contract and fight the total of 6 fights. “Money” definitely will fight a few more times, and the way he looked against Guerrero there is no doubt that Floyd still has plenty left in the tank.
