Could the ESPN commentators been any more up Provodnikov's butt last night?

[Derranged]

Atlas and Tessitore seemed to have a man crush on this guy. I mean seriously, it's like they completely disregarded anything Popoca did, and ignored that he was winning rounds. I mean Provodnikov did hurt him and won by TKO, but I would go so far as to say he was getting schooled a bit. No matter what Popoca did, Atlas just kept focusing on how "good" and strong the Russian was. I guess it's moot at this point, but still, it doesn't speak well for the cast.

Anyone else catch on to this?

I only heard the part where they compared him to Kostya Tsyzu as I was watching the other fights.

That part made me cringe because it was off the mark by miles.

I think they comparison was made to Kostya because of the part of Russia they are from. Both are I guess indigenous Siberians? They look white and Asiatic.

I'll bet KLITSCHKO2011 is crapping his pants in rage right now.

Ruslan Provodnikov is mediocre, he's no one to get excited about.

However, I saw a talented, exciting fighter yesterday who most people have never heard of: Grzegorz Proksa.
