Fight Preview: Garcia v Mathysse

In an epic night of boxing this Saturday September 14th 2013, Danny Garcia (26-0, 16 KO's) will square off against Lucas Mathysse (34-2, 32 KO's) in a WBA/WBC Super Lightweight Championship bout.  This will be the appetizer to the mega fight involving Floyd Mayweather & Saul Alvarez.  Both fighters are in a huge roll as of late knocking out their opponents and cleaning up the Super Lightweight Division, and now they meet in a showdown in Vegas at the MGM Grand.  This fight could have easily been it's own feature Pay-Per-View bout, but boxing fans will be treated to a great undercard match in which many experts believe this fight will steal the show come Saturday night.
This fight will match two knockout artists at the top of their game which can only bring out fireworks.  Garcia expects to try and outbox the slugger Mathysse, to do so, Garcia must utilize a jab to set up his big left and right hooks all while trying to avoid getting caught by Mathysse's expected onslaught.  Mathysse is expected to come forward and come at Garcia, so it will be up to Danny to keep his distance from the Argentinian bomber while attempting to land effective combinations.  It will be interesting to see if Garcia will be able to withstand Mathysse's pressure, and if he would be able to effectively sustain his stamina if this fight goes the distance.
Lucas Mathysse will no doubt look to make quick work of Garcia by stalking and setting him for big right hand and left hand hooks.  Also interesting, is if Mathysse's strong chin will be able to withstand Danny's big overhand left hook.  Mathysse power sure seems to favor him for this fight, although Garcia's own power cannot and should be counted out.
Expect for Garcia to try and outbox Mathysse for the first few rounds, but then all heck should break loose where we the fans can be treated to an all out slugfest between these two great knockout kings.
It is important to note that Lucas Mathysse is favored to be the the champ Garcia, so look for Garcia to use that as fuel and as a chip on his shoulder to prove the naysayers wrong.
One can't deny that we boxing and fight fans are in for one heck of a fight with Garcia vs Mathysse, bombs away.
Danny Garcia vs Lucas Mathysse will be part of 'TheOne: Mayweather vs Canelo,' to be aired on Showtime Pay-Per-View September 14th, 2013 from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Noez Prediction:
Danny Garcia Wins By Split Decision
