I would love to see Provodnikov vs Broner.

[Danieltapia]

Provo-Broner would be fun. I would also like to see Provo-Khan or Provo-Mayweather. Both would better than the suggested mismatch of Mayweather-Khan!

[mathed]

Provodnikov isn't Rees or Demarco and look at how much good work and clean punches Gavin landed. Broner doesn't have the power to hurt guys his own size especially not Provodnikov and with him throwing hooks to Broner's shoulders, arms, body, chest and overhand rights good luck lasting 12 rounds with that. He'll get broken down.

I agree. Can you imagine Broner standing there trying to shoulder roll Ruslan's punches? LMAO, he'd have to try something else after 3 rounds due to the shoulder pain alone. Broner would try to tie him up as the fight progressed only to get caught with more punches with each passing round.

Provodnikov wouldn't lay a glove on Mayweather. Broner is a good 50-50 fight for him.

Ruslan would never I repeat never beat a fighter like Broner. I mean these are same people swore it was no way a killer like Lucas wouldn't put Danny in a bodybag only to make a excuse if Danny didn't close is eye he would have lost. Styles make fight Ruslan style vs Broner style is a recipe for Ruslan to get embarassed.

Bro....

5'2" Gavin Rees was tagging Broner at will, Paulie was tagging him at will.

Provodnikov has power.

If styles make fights, explain how Broner's style is bad for Provodnikov.

As I see it Broner doesn't move, he's there to be hit. His power isn't the same at 147, and his body is open to attack with Provo being a wicked body puncher.

There are things in Broner's favour too, like handspeed and Provo's lack of stamina but it's still a 50-50 bout imo. It's not all in one fighter's favour.

Mayweather's style is a recipe for Ruslan to get embarrassed, not Broner's.

To say his power isn't the same at 147 is kinda a reach. Nobody has 1 punch KO'd Paulie not Khan TKO'd him with activity the same thing with Hatton. Paulie was rarely in the danger zone vs Broner and when he was he got hurt. Ruslan would live in the danger zone and get picked apart because of his lack of handspeed. I tend to agree with Broner is that he can move but doesn't. He has looked less than spectacular vs people who have moved away from him Ponce and Paulie everybody who has came to him he puts in a bodybag.

No one has KO'd Provodnikov either, his chin appears every bit as good as Malignaggi's, if not even better.

The two recent fighters that have moved away from Provodnikov have ended up badly hurt, and Broner doesn't move!

I'd probably somewhat favour Broner, mostly due to Provo's lack of stamina but I do think it's a 50/50 bout.

I don't expect Broner 1 punch KO Ruslan; but Ruslan seems to cut up very easy say what you want about Broner even vs Paulie he was quite accurate; and vs Broner thats not a good look. Broner is also a bigger puncher than both Bradley and Alvarado.

[dan_cov]

Ruslan destroys him. You can read every single shot Broners going to throw long before he does.

Watch any of his fights its the same thing repeated over & over again. Doesn't do anything for 3 rounds then its the same movements, same counters, same everything.

He might not even beat Maidana & Ruslan is a lot less crude and far more polished.
