Providnikov vs Mattysse/Garcia

[Check_hooks]

Garcia has power but Prov would still beat his ass. Garcia can't box like Alvarado and we all know what Prov did to Alvarado

Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

What do you mean? You act like Provodnikov is not in the same class as those two. He had bradley( A fighter that would beat lucas and danny) on the brink of getting KO'ed. He broke Alvarado's will in his hometown. Both fights would be very interesting and exciting!

He should fight Matthysse or Garcia next, but unfortunately Provodnikov's promoter has aligned himself with Bob Arum, so his next three fights will be Pacquaio, Bradlley II and Rios. After he loses two of those three fight, Arum will send him back to ESPN because he will have no more use for hm.

They were not equal,that was part of his plan.To break Mike down.And he did this over the course of the fight,he picked when to throw and not just throw wildly and waste energy every time.He waited till Mike slowed down and didn't fight 3mins of every round he waited till the second half of the rounds.Wanted Mike to slow down a bit.

He did the same exact thing against Bradley, he takes rounds off because he's tired and doesn't want to punch himself out. He made Alvarado look like a defensive master most of the fight, occasionally landing hard shots here and there again same thing as the Bradley fight.

Provodnikov is a very 1 dimensional fighter, reminds me of Rios with more power and not as good a boxer.

Bradley fought the wrong kind of fight with Provodnikov. If he had fought Provodnikov the way he fought Marquez, Bradley would have won an easy unanimous decision.

Matthysse would be the better fight.

Garcia will will box him and wrap him up when he closes the distance. He's becoming a much smarter fighter and getting better every fight.

I think Provodnikov knocks out both Garcia and Matthysse. Excellent fights though.

No, this fight was different from the Bradley fight, look at the punches thrown, Provodnikov paced himself, he made the adjustments from his last fight, give the guy credit or gtfo.

He fought a weight drained Alvarado coming off 3 wars with Rios. He fought a feather fisted, chinny Bradely who completely went out of his comfort zone and chose to brawl instead of box like he has his entire career and still lost.

In a rematch I'd bet my house on Bradley to in by UD if he chooses to box, he gave Pro every chance in the world to beat him and came out victorious.
