Comments Thread For: Provodnikov: Beating Alvarado Will Help Make Me a Star

[ddangerous]

Glad he said 'help make', beating Alvarado of itself won't make anyone a star even if he does land a title.

Exactly...

Will have a following but will never be a star. Too limited skills, no personality. Maybe in Russia...

actually Ruslan LOSING to ALvarado gets you a ppv fight with Manny. A ppv win over a HOF'er helps makes you a star a lot faster than a win over an unknown on WCB.

Damn this dude is a warrior.

Boxing is NOT dead !!!!!

Fighters like Ruslan Provodnikov make my day !!

[Southpawology]

Looking forward to this fight

If he fought like that the entire fight he would have lost.
I'm surprised he went that far away from the gameplan just to gain fans respect.
Works out for him in the end

But bradley exposed him when he started boxing him, the same as when Alvarado did the same to rios. so this would go the same as Alvarado vs Rios II.
Boxers have been given Roachs' offensive fighters hell in the last couple years.

Boxers beat Brawlers most of the time. Boxers = Sweet Science, Brawlers = 6 shots of tequila at the bar.....anyone can do that. Not to say i dont enjoy a good brawl but boxers hitting and moving making opponents miss is a beautiful thing. but to each his own.

Cant wait for this one!!!!!!
I got mike winning this one but only if he boxes if he gets drawn into a brawl which we saw him do many times in both the rios fights theres gunna be times were ruslan cheacks his chin its up to mike to walk threw the power or dodge it.
