He has absolutely no chance tonight, he's fighting a guy who like Danny Garcia can take a punch, and can punch back. That's all that needed to ko, what could possibly be the biggest hype job in Boxingscene history.
I know there's a betting thread but honestly I'm willing to put all my points up against the biggest Matthysse fan here, and if Lucas wins tonight, I'll never say another bad thing about the guy, even if he wins in a robbery (which is going to be impossible). I see this fight ending within 7 rounds. Remember where you heard it first fellas.
Provo reminds me of a poor man's george chuvalo. Slow plodder with a great chin but less boxing ability. Ends up making it a great fight everytime and will come out with the win this time
Can't wait until tonight, I saying it right now, no matter how this fight ends, if Matthysse comes out the victor, you'll hear no excuses from me. But please, when Lucas gets murdered, please don't bring up eye excuses, or low blow excuses.
You guys remember what Bradley did to Ruslan's face right? Now imagine those same pinches coming from Matthysse. I think Matts breaks his face up and the ref stops it in 9 rds.
To the guys saying I won't pay up, please post proof about bets I have made.
I have no problem paying, our bet is confirmed, I've actually never been more confident of something in my life. Also some guys in here never paid me for my Garcia/Matthysse prediction, hypocrites.
Oh god, no ones heard this from you before..............:Flush::Flush::Flush::Flush:
hypejob? lmao, atleats lucas KOs his opponents and makes for interesting fights, but mayweather is TBE for clinching and running away from his opponent for 99% the fight? loolololol
Well only way you're beating Ruslan is to Outbox him for 12 Rounds and that is really not Matthysse style. People are going to cry about Matthysse fighting off of his backfoot I'm sure and claim he is "Running" if he does but that would be the wise strategy. Back Up, Circle, COUNTER!

I can honestly see your point. That's why this fight is so interesting, ruslan I think has better 1 punch power which is saying a hell of a lot considering I am comparing him to Lucas but Garcia (despite what people may say) is a far better boxer/counter puncher than Ruslan. Lucas on the other hand is a better boxer of the 2 but he's no Sugar Ray Leonard, if Lucas can box and avoid the orbital bone cracking right for the first 3 rds, I can see Lucas winning by tko because Tim Bradley made Ruslans face look like hamburger meat and Tim isn't known for his power. I Guess I'm like the majority & think if it ends early (1st 3rds) it'll be by brutal KO in favor of Ruslan, if it goes further, Matthysse by stoppage. Skills pay the bills & Lucas has a little more so in going with Lucas by TKO6 "but" I aint bettin' *****!!! Lol! I'm just going to enjoy a buzz & watch boxeo... Haha
Here we go
What this thread is doing is taking away from a victory if Ruslan wins
And if Lucas wins best believe people will be saying how Ruslan is a bum
That's nsb for you
Smh
It disgusts me
I agree, let's just enjoy a fight for once without ripping the loser to shreds.

Yo I just got released after a week in the pen, great day to come back, I don't dislike Matthysse, he's an exciting fighter, but his fanboys are worse than Fl*mos and P@ctards, he really is the biggest hypejob I've seen on this site.
bigger than you?

It was some other guy with a username very similliar to yours, pugilist-something. My mistake.
Anyway, I'm still waiting for them naked pics.
We still don't know how well either guy will take the other's power, especially how well Ruslan will stand Matthysse's best shots.
Provodnikov's high profile fights have been against guys like Herrera, Bradley, and Algieri, guys who can't punch. Alvarado is a decent puncher but nothing more.
Similarly, who knows if Matthysse can survive the meat-grinder Ruslan will turn the fight into for 5/6 rounds. Lucas is better on the outside and from mid-range, but Provodnikov might have the edge up close where the fight will probably be fought.
I think Matthysse is the better conditioned of the two, and if he can weather the storm distance will start to develop between the two. From there Matthysse would win as he's the cleaner puncher and has better timing.
But it all depends on how well each can soak up the other's shots.
If it all depends on that, then surely you should be leaning towards Ruslan. We already know that Matthysse doesn't have much of a chin, Ruslan walks through bombs.
Right on time, the account that only shows up to predict Matthysse or Golovkin will be stopped whenever they fight shows up to predict Matthysse will be stopped.
He doesn't hate them doe.
I've actually been a member here longer than you.

I'm leaning toward Ruslan as I tend to think that the ability to take a punch is hereditary and we all know what happened to Walter when he faced legit punchers...also some people are understating Alvardos power.
