LUCAS MATTHYSSE EXCITES FANS WITH TREMENDOUS KNOCKOUT ON SATURDAY NIGHT

Catch the replay tomorrow/Tuesday at 10 p.m. ET/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME

On Saturday night, WBC Interim Super Lightweight World Champion Lucas "The Machine" Matthysse entered the ring at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City and went to work. In just three short rounds, Matthysse sent IBF Junior Welterweight World Champion Lamont Peterson to the canvas three times before the referee stopped the fight. Fans in attendance went wild and the press has proclaimed him to be the scariest man in boxing today. Don't miss the replay, tomorrow/Tuesday at 10 p.m. ET/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME.

"Matthysse is scary good." - Chris Mannix, Sports Illustrated

"Matthysse just continues to grind up and spit out opponents in frightening fashion. Anyone who didn't believe in him before must by now." - Dan Rafael, ESPN

"The legend of Lucas Matthysse continues." - Mitch Abramson, New York Daily News

"...He might be the best pure puncher in the sport..." - Eric Raskin, Grantland

"Rather than simply titillating against Peterson in what many saw as a slam dunk 2013 fight of the year, Matthysse put on a performance that stretches his career arc light years beyond such short-sighted baubles." - Lyle Fitzsimmons, Bleacher Report

"What you feel about Matthysse today is a thing to take measure of ... because what you feel is genuine enthusiasm, the euphoria of discovery, a sensation of hopefulness one gets when he realizes the world is a more original, entertaining place than previously surmised." - Bart Barry, 15Rounds.com
