Anyone who believes he was robbed against Bradley isn't to be taken seriously. The fight was extremely close. Close fights aren't robberies.

Good thing for Provodnikov, is that he's now a sentimental favorite for fans. And no matter what, with his style, people are always going to want to see him fight.

I think when people say he got robbed against Bradley they really mean the referee robbed Provodnikov. There were 2 missed KD's.... Bradley won IMO without those but if they would of been called Provodnikov would of most likely won. Why would someone not get taken serious for that? It's a pretty valid topic for discussion IMO.

That said, Bradley clearly won without the KD's and it is what it is, they weren't called so it wasn't a robbery

Fighters who "show ass?" If that isn't a typo you have some explaining to do, sir. For the record this gave me the best laugh of the day today.

It's an old expression. It's a compliment
