Ruslan Provodnikov (23-2, 16KOs) is a hot piece of boxing property after stopping Mike Alvarado in ten rounds to capture the WBO junior welterweight championship at the 1STBANK Center in Broomfield, Denver. After seven explosive rounds of action, Provodnikov began to pull away in eight - after punishing Alvarado (34-2) and scoring two knockdowns in the process. It was the first time Alvarado had tasted the canvas as a pro. After Provodnikov unleashed more punishment in the tenth, Alvarado couldn't answer the bell for the eleventh. [Click Here To Read More]

He been going through it with his last few fights. At least he made it back to the corner. He knew he was out it a rd. 8. Went two more to give it a try, then called a night a night. Nothing wrong with that. Nobody here would say Fraizer was a quitter.Comment
