Ruslan looking an absolute beast in training

He's gonna stop Lucas He has a better chin What makes you think that? The biggest puncher Provo has faced is Alvarado is it not? Even then that wasn't Alvarado's fight at all. I think Ruslan has proven to take an accumulation of punches, but he's not taken punches from a puncher even as hard as Garcia. You also have to take into account how easy Ruslan bruises, he is going to get MESSED UP. If it matters I think Swift has the power to stop Provodnikov.

lol..... Smart ass I said top level guys that were PROFESSIONAL IN TRAINING CAMP

What top level fighter with a professional approach to training camp isn't a beast in camp..

He's gonna stop Lucas He has a better chin Prov has weak skin though look what feather-fisted bradley & chris did dude's face is gonna fall apart

good and I hope hes on the juice too anything to atleast be able to defend himself and hopefully not get permanent damage from the onslaught he will be receiving. Before The Fight Ruslan Be Like http://fightnights.com/uploads/Ruslan-Provodnikov.jpg After The Fight Ruslan Be Like http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m258/Wotan1105/goonies-sloth.jpg LMAO....this had me cracking up.

Matthysse UD or body shot KO

provodnikov went life and death vs ALGIERI LMAOOOOO if lucas doesnt beat this bum he better retire

scared for both guys, this fight will be brutal and both guys may never be the same after. I am def going for my boy matthysse but I'm worried a bit about his chin and provo is relentless so he could hurt him early. If Matthysse weathers the storm he should win as he has better power and is a better boxer

I seriously cannot wait for this fight. It's going to be an amazing night.

Lucas is gonna flame Ruslan but it's gonna be a bloody war!

It never ****n fails. Once a ****n year I have to miss a ****n fight of my preference. I'm going to be having the time of my life at Coachella and I'm complaining about missing this fight and legit pissed off about it. That's how much I love boxing.

Let's go Provo!! But i worry about if Matthysse decides to actually box... a win like that would be waaack.... i wanna see a war.

My prediction for the fight? Pain.

Looks good, but I just can't see him beating Matthysse. I'm interested to see how Ruslan will react to a heavy hitter like Lucas. He's never really faced a big puncher and his defense is absolute shart, I don't think his face will hold up in this fight. This is how light punchers like Herrera and Bradley had him looking. http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c217/natas206/1921952_770070063006105_307918108_n_zps520666dd.jpg http://24.media.tumblr.com/aa56b87d20f65a43f34c13cec67c5673/tumblr_mjxntbd24w1rdu029o1_500.jpg One thing though, everybody that's defeated Ruslan has taken an ass whooping in the process.

I'll take the fighter with the better skills, power & everything else. Sig bet, avi or whatever Ruslan's looking impressive though. I have a tendency to agree, but if Lucas ignores his advantages and turns this into a battle of chin, power and will, I think Ruslan will win

will be a good fight

He looks in pretty good shape but his punches are so wide and predictable

This video almost has me rethinking my pick. Pads & bags don't hit back but still I think he looks very good. Cutting the ring off well, using his jab and utilising some great head movement. I can't wait for this one. FOTY written all over it. Took his shirt off and put Eye of the tiger on lol Still gets beat!

If matthysse has ANY boxing skill, he wins easily. Anyone that shows ruslan any boxing skills wins, for christs sake algieri beat him and he was crying about facing a "boxer type" and how he admitted that he doesnt do well against those types, now what do you think matthysse should use if he wants to WIN. Lets say he tries to make it exciting for the fans and lose. His career is gonna be set back for atleast 5 years taking a loss "for the fans".:boxing: Nobody has beaten Ruslan easily though. Bradley and Algieri both had "boxing skill" but those fights could've gone either way. Alvarado tried to box him too and got found out, Herrera went life & death. It looks easy in theory, but the reality has proven to be different.
