    Time will tell whether or not the Ruslam win was good or not. Ruslan made a fan of me that night.

        He's tough as old boot and will give anyone who fights in range of him a war. Fighting on ESPN doesn't make you bad. It just means that's where your promoter could get dates. Andre Berto was on HBO...that didn't make him very good.

          That's funny, Ruslan had Bradley badly hurt in that fight. Pac couldn't do that against a Bradley with 2 busted ankles. Yet you rate pac so highly but Ruslan is some espn bum?

            no but 5 dates give you plenty of opportunities to check the guy out, so no flukes. so i didn't mean it as a putdown, but he's no unknown quantity. pending more evidence, bradley was the fluke.

            He is very tough, but there's a lot of guys that are tough+

              Nah, I thought he'd give Bradley hell. I think highly of Ruslan. One of my fave active guys.

                I guess you pegged the styles matchup, cause Prov didn't even look that good winning on fnf most of the time. I thought he may have beat Herrera, but no robbery. But that's not the only time he failed to impress (other than durability/effort)

                I like some of the tough brawlers too, nothing against Ruslan. But IMO fringe top 10 material, and not a challenge on paper for a p4per.

                  I think he should be a tough fight for almost any Welter or Jr. Welter until his style breaks him. On paper is just that...paper. All this P4P stuff gets people carried away sometimes. He's a good, tough as nails fighter with heavy hands and a solid jab. That's made havoc for many a great one and Bradley is just pretty good.
