ESPN Polls, Provodnikov wins the fight!!

[jvsnypes]

I stopped scoring it after TKO1 happened, or should have happened.

A TKO is when the ref jumps in because a fighter can't defend himself. At what point in the 1st round did you see that with Tim??? He was hurt, but at what point did he stop throwing punches??? Since the ref didn't stop it the way you see it, Provodnikov should have finished Tim off, right??? A ref jumps in so that the fighter doesn't take a brutal KO. So why didn't Ruslan brutally KO Tim if you feel the ref should have stopped it???

I think Tim barely won but he got his butt whooped!

Yes tim did get his butt whooped. But it was 2 butt whippings that night. Those 2 cuts and Ruslan's swollen face shows he took a butt whipping as well.

I felt Ruslan did more damage, but due to scoring, I had Bradley winning the fight.... Bull**** that if you win the fight you don't win the match, but in this case it's true.

Real life, Bradley won, it's in the books now. Why didn't they interview Ruslan last night then if he "won" the fight? Espn probably thought that Ruslan's battered face might scare people into changing the channel.

I scored it a draw but Bradley controlled the majority of the fight.

Provodnikov disappeared from rounds 4-9

That's fine but if you score the proper 10-8 rounds then give him 10 11 and 12 he wins the fight. Anyway we know who the real champ is.

When a fighter is dropped and struggles to get up it should be stopped. Go watch Thompson vs Price.

"it should be stopped"??

wth? It clearly shouldn't have been stopped because Bradely made it to the 12th round and ****ed prod up, winning the majority of the fight.

It seems like some are disappointed that the fight wasn't stopped in the first. I guess if I was Ruslan, I would be mad. But as a fan, the referee did a favor and gave Bradley a chance. That chance turned into a fantastic bout.
