gotta give bradley credit; ruslan too!

I was never a big Bradley fan. I always thought he was a good fighter, but his style never really appealed to me. I mean, don't get me wrong, because he IS a good fighter I watched him, because I like to see the best fight the best, and imo he's one of the best. Having said that, seeing how he fought tonight, he's definitely made me a fan. As for Provodnikov, I heard a few things about him here and there, but I've never seen him fight till tonight. Holy **** that guy can fight. Time Bradley made me a fan, Ruslan Prododnikov DEFINITELY made me a fan! That guy is a ****in ANIMAL!!!!!!!!!! That was an awesome fight, between two warriors!

I give him respect because honestly didn't expect much of him but Cant give Ruslan too much credit he had so many chances to finish the fight Bradley was out and couldn't even drop him

I can't praise these guys enough, such heart, will, effort, and competitiveness between the both of them. really it came down to game plan, and although bradley really threw his out the window at times, his ultimately won him the fight. Ruslan is a beast, needs some small fine tuning on somethings, there won't be many that will be able to hang with him. if ruslan gets managed right, he'll be a world champion some day, sooner rather than later. this fight trumped all combat sports tonight! UFC wishes it had this type dramatics and action tonight. great stuff.

a thread praising boxers for giving us a great fight......shouldn't this be about who got exposed and who sucks, and who runs, and who's an unskilled brawler, and who has a glass jaw, and who punches like a sissy?

Great fight! Both guys showed a lot of heart.

lol been a boxing fan since i was a kid n to see Bradley n Ruslan tonight reminds me of back 1993 when i was 4 or 3 dont remember exactly my age but those guys remind me of why i became a fan of the sport props to Bradley he could of made it an easier night but went out there tonight to show this other boxers what boxing should be about

Good post, nice to see a post like this after the fight actually.

that was an awesum fight by both men!!!!

Look, that overhand right that ruslan landed that got things rolling was a huge shot that bradley took and stayed standing. that was the same overhand right that marquez slept pacquiao with, bradley fought through it and was trying to duke it out the whole time. that was some powerful stuff right there, ruslans right, bradley's chin and bradley's will to keep fighting! props to both fighters for bringing excitement to the night! Absolutely. You saw what I saw. Bank these points Im finna send you my man. Thank you for being a fan of the sport. :banana:
