If you had to bet money on this fight who would you pick Alvarado vs Provodnikov?

[brickcityboxing]

Prescott was outboxing him and on his way to a decision until rado stepped it up ... Rios wobbled him with a stiff jab in both fights IIRC. I'm going Provo. Close, but I feel he has the momentum coming in even though he's coming off a loss and mikes coming off a win. If that makes any sense.

mile high i don't think this will be the war ppl r expecting i think mile high will fight smart

[Ringlife]

Mike Alvardo is going to make Ruslan look ordinary. Tim Bradley just fought a dumb fight and made this guy look better than he really is.

Bradley did fight a real dumb fight against Provodnikov. I had Provodnikov winning that fight by a point

I think Rado fights smart in front of his hometown fans and gets the W. I agree with your post.

If provo can get to faster smarter timmy

I think alvarado hits harder ten timmy and he
Will box and brawl and he will get cracked as well.

Provo mid round tko.
Rd 8 id say

Tough one but I feel its mainly down to Ruslan's stamina and how he takes rounds off.

I picked Alvarado in the Rios rematch but I'm not with the fans who think Alvarado will comfortably outbox Ruslan. Hes a different animal to Rios.
Hes more intelligent, he can cut a ring off & jabs his way in. That said I don't feel Ruslan quite has the power people may think he does.

I feel the Rios rematch has blinded people into believing Alvarado is a better boxer than he actually is. In fact I feel he looks awfully uncoordinated when he tries to box, hes not fluid & he looks awkward.

I'm a little on the fence but if I had to bet, I think I'd have to take Ruslan via stoppage.

If this were at 147, Provid via KO but at 140....Rado decision is very possible.

[El Angel]

The Siberian Rocky KO's Alvarado.

[Jloro]

Alvarado by decision. Ruslan is not very good I see no reason to trust a bet on him

[Pez]

alvarado by dec. provodnikov has no regard for his human face.

Alvarado in 10 just for it being at140
