Matthysse back on Canelo – Chavez PPV

Former world champion Lucas Matthyse will be back on May 6th on the Canelo Alvarez – Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. PPV undercard, according to Dan Rafael of espn.com.

“Matthysse is definitely going to be on the undercard. He’s making his comeback. He’s had his break,” Eric Gomez of Golden Boy Promotions, said.

“His eye needed to get better. He had the fracture, but he’s been cleared,” Gomez said. “He’s looking good, he’s feeling good and he’s been training. He’s anxious to fight again.”

“We’re looking at opponents for Matthysse now,” Gomez said. “He’s had the break he needed and now he’s excited to come back. He wants to go after a world title at welterweight and fight some of the big names. It’s a strong division. He wants to win a world title and this is the start.”
