Any decent boxer beats Ruslan

Whoops. My post was edited for clarity. I meant Provodnikov has a better style suited against Bradley than Marquez.

Obviously. What is your point or is that it?

Credit to Bradley it showed what level of fighter he is when he was able to effectively box and move against Provodnikov. Alvarado is no slouch, it takes more that just "a mover" to outbox Ruslan for 12 rounds without getting touched, you have to be an elite fighter to achieve that. At this time he gives everyone hell at 140-147 not named Mayweather/Pacquiao.

I disagree because Alvarado is a decent boxer and didn't.

Not to mention, Bradley is a way above average boxer and barely survived him.

Yea Bradley could have fought smarter but I think you are putting too much stock into Ruslan losing a decision to a lesser fighter a couple years ago.

No a decent boxer who does that exclusively.

Bradley wasn't allowed to do that and neither was Alvarado.

Ruslan made these guys fight his fight, Bradley just had a little more success due to his natural talent, he still came out of that fight with more worse for wear despite the W

Is it me or these fans of the "slick, pure boxers" been a lil Butthurt lately??? They been ****tin on every come forward fighter who goes toe to toe any chance ya get. And then demand people accept the style of the track stars, I mean slick boxers as the true, #1 style of boxing. They need to just stfu!

I was expecting Alvarado to box him and win a wide decision. Fighting in your hometown can sometimes be a bad thing.

I wouldn't bet on that

Bradley had to lose 20 pounds in 10 days prior to the Ruslan fight, no one takes into consideration the weight. It would have been a completely different fight had he been in better shape.

Agreed. They're upset because other than Mayweather(who wasn't a star until Oscar made him into one) the slicksters just don't create the fight buzz that these skilled offensive fighters produce.
