Comments Thread For: Provodnikov: No Interest In Pacquiao, Maybe Rios at 147

[King_]

i agree 110% im so sick of these same 5 guys fighting each other. pac needs to leave top rank as bad as ever now. SO MANY fights wait for him on the other side. do pac fans not wanna see pac vs. broner,guerrero,thurman,ortiz, maidana and so on! same with Bradley these fools need to get outta there and get down to business. both money and legacy await them on the other side

Yeah, because Broner, Guerrero, Thurman, Ortiz and Maidana are so much greater then Bradley, JMM, Provodnikov......

Network/Promotional fanboy alert.....

Lol'd @ legacy fights...

if arum makes rios-alvarado 2 i like alvarado.

i'll say alvarado ud12.

115-113

I have Alvarado winning him VS Rios two as well, but I don't think Alvarado gets a Pac fight and Pac has a rematch with Rios.

Provodnikov has class. Good dude. I honestly think he ruins Rios. The guy hits like a Mack Truck and Rios will want to show he's a "warrior", and he'll end up getting hurt badly.

Manny may not still be in the mood for killing people, although with a different trainer the fight may have been stopped. Rios was just getting beat up and not doing anything in return. But even if Manny doesn't KO people anymore, he's clearly still capable of beating them with ease with his boxing.

Can't knock Ruslan for not wanting to fight a stablemate. But, he seems to be a very loyal and trusting guy. And I just hope his loyal and trusting nature isn't getting him taken advantage of. If he's not gonna fight Pac, he needs to seriously consider jumping over to GBP and fight some of their guys at 40 and 47. No need to hang around as a quasi Top Rank guy and be Arum's lil ace in the hold that he can match with top guys coming off loses and 2nd tier guys who he can make money in a guaranteed action bout.

He's only done random blood for his fight with rios, prior to that he wasn't doing any random testing and still wasn't knocking people out. Take Floyd's **** out yo mouth.

Read again dude, this time get out a dictionary so you can understand what I wrote. Take your time so you don't make an ass out of yourself this time.

[Sugar Q]

When was Floyd's last one?
Dang... he gotta get back on the juice

Floyd's a winner my dude!!!! 45-0!!! P4P on everybody who's anybody's list. If it aint broke there's nothing to fix.

Its not a matter of the GBP guys being better. Its a matter of Provodnikov being able to get fights. He doesn't wanna fight Pac, which I understand and respect. Bradley ain't going that route no more. And there's not a chance in hell of a 40yr old Jmm even considering Ruslan. He's not contractually tied to Top Rank. So why hang around and not get fights that are gonna advance your career.

[hitking]

There's a difference in not having fire and not wanting to cause permanent damage like he did to Margarito. Margarito deserved it. Rios is a moron but he doesnt deserve to havr his career or life ended. Manny had him beat easily and was in no danger. Very rarely do I cobdone letting a fighter off the hook but Manny gets respect for that. Mayweather wouldn't get any mercy.

So I see somebody is drinking the "Manny Merciful Pacquiao let a guy off the hook kool-aid.. you must be new to this. Let me hip you to something. Every time Pac doesn't KO someone, he "let them off the hook."

Provodnikov = good guy, good person, great fighter!!!


god bless Provodnikov

Didnt Pacquiao say something about making Rios pay for the Roach Jokes????
Well, those 282 stings must have been 282 mosquito bites cause Pacquiao couldnt put that kid away... Let up, i think he lets up cause the gas tank gets empty real quick with 100+ punches per round, all that kangaroo bouncing and no PED's in his system...
