Danny Garcia vs Ruslan Provodnikov.

[Accountoffline]

Unlike Herrera Provo has some mean power behind his punches, something Danny would crumble under once he gets obliterated.

garcia easily. not only is he a much better fighter but he has the style to beat ruslan.

its crazy how overrated provodnikov gets after his last two fights, he is good but nowhere near the beast some make him out to be. shades of matthysse really, if he ever fought garcia he would get exposed the same way too. not saying he isnt a very good fighter, he is just not as good as advertised. garcia is still better than advertised, he just had an off night against a guy with a tricky style thats nothing like ruslans style.

Swift is not going to beat Ruslan off of him by just landing single counter punches at a time. He will just smile in his face while sticking out his tongue at him in the process. Provodnikov has a very strong chin so it's going to take more than one punch to deter him. He isn't some Amir Khan and I think that Danny's power is a little overrated by some on here too.

The only way Garcia is beating an inside pressure fighter like Ruslan is with volume punching. That means by consistently hitting him and beating him to the punch. In other words more than doubling his punch output because if he doesn't he is only going to get stronger and then Garcia would run the risk of getting knocked out himself because Provodnikov is a relentless inside pressure fighter.

The only reason why Bradley survived that fight is because he fought back tenaciously due to his tremendous stamina in outworking Provodnikov and by out landing him by some 2 to 1 margin and it also helped slow Ruslan down because if it hadn't Bradley could have been easily knocked out himself.

This man gets it. Bradley's defense is also markedly better than Garcia's, yet he barely made it out with his life against Provo.
