Bradley vs Provodnikov is the closest fight I've seen thus far

anyone and everyone who says the fight wasn't close needs to get their eye balls checked like Max Kellerman. I had the fight 113-112 Bradley. I think Ruslan could've beat him if he didn't allow Bradley to hit him, then again, Ruslan is a Brawler..

Just looking at Ruslan made my face hurt.

easy to score, close in rounds though, can't see it any way but for bradley unless you give provodnikov some 10-8's

It's funny, but I think Provodnikov beat and hurt Bradley more than Pacquiao did. However, more people will accept Bradley winning against Provodnikov than Pacquiao. Don't get me wrong, I still think Bradley should not have got the decision against Pacquiao but when you put it in perspective Provodnikov put on a much better showing against Bradley than Pacquiao but there was hardly the backlash. Incidentally, I think this fight was scored correctly but it could have gone either way because there was so much inactivity from Provodnikov.

Bradley got hurt a few times, but I thought he clearly won. The knockdown made it closer than he wanted it to be, but I had him winning by two points. It would have been three, but the knockdown made the score closer.

I just re-watched this fight I had it 113-112 for Provodnikov counting the first 2 rounds 10-8 for Provodnikov. The first round KD was clear as day to me the ref messed up badly. However, I can still see a draw or perhaps a win for Bradley 114-113. Officially though I would have had it 113-113 but I would be fine with either scorecard. Either 113-112 for Provodnikov or 114-113 for Bradley and a draw too. What was your scorecard? How can you score the 2nd round 10-8? Bradley was fighting back and landing....Being badly hurt doesn't automatically mean 10-8. The first round Bradley was pushed down. Like Martinez's second knockdown in the JCC jr fight.

round 1 should have been a knock down round 2 was clearly a missed knockdown as bradley fell into the ropes round 6 was clearly a missed knockdown as he fell into the ropes again round 12 was a knockdown sure if you ignore the rules it's close.

I think I had it 114-113 Bradley, but I scored the first round 10-9, and had it been ruled 10-8, it would have been a draw.

Bradley won clearly for me. Although i didnt score it. The kd in the first could of gone either way, and up till then it was bradleys round. Round 2 had Bradley hurt but always fighting back, so i couldnt give it a 10 - 8 to Prod. Then Bradley outboxed him and out worked for most of the fight until the last round.

Bradley won but it was very close, back in the day these fights would warrant an instant rematch. Bradley should still have that niggling feeling in his soul that he still has to prove he can beat Provodnikov, especially with his better "boxing" abilities. Many claim Bradley could and should have outboxed Provodnikov first time round, much like post-Leonard/Duran, well then, let us see it and judge for ourselves. If Pacquiao is not next for Bradley then it really should be Provodnikov.

Bradley didn't win clearly. He needs to take RJJ's advice and do a rematch.

113-112 for Provodnikov with the first two rounds being 10-8

Iirc I had it to Bradley by a point or two. FOTY.

I had it 114 113 Bradley. Close, close fight.
