Provodnikov is too easy to hit to beat any of those two

I think Arum is at least part psychopath,I think it would be hard for Ruslan to turn down a career high pay day.That fight would have a Holmes/Ali feel to it where the after thought sparring partner may be catching the more acclaimed but older star at the right time.For those saying Provodnikov is another mismatch are delusional,isn't this the guy who basically put Bradley on intensive care and I don't want to hear all that Bradley fought toe to toe crap,because Bradley fought aggressive against Peterson,Alexander,etc. and most of the time when Bradley got hurt it was because of a counter over a jab.I think Ruslan is coming to his own I mean he delivered one of those old school Chavez Sr. methodical beat downs to join the mile high club.He's faster than Rios ,better at cutting off the ring,and more technically sound than Rios.

Some days i love bob arum, some days i hate him. Today, i hate him...look what his fighters are left with at top rank. No options except rematches..
When it comes down to it, its all cause of mayweather, he caused al the conflict between promoters and even now network cables. No denying that.
Take a look, de la hoya whomleft golden boy, made the fight easily with pacquiao who was with top rank bon arum, and same as ricky hattonni believe on different promotions...
Things only went sour when mayweather caused all unnecessary drama in negotiations for pacquiao fight, causing promoters to hate n blame each other.
Then mayweather gets offended by hbo always attacking him to fight pac post interview ala larry merchant, and defects to showtime now causing heat withh hbo
Lmao all cuz of one man this conflict we are missing out on great and even better undercards

What's the point of this fight for Manny's career? If you can't have him fight Mayweather, have him fight Bradley for ****'s sake. Arum's the worst.

You're crazy I think he poses more problems for Danny than Lucas style wise,but I think both guys probably find a way to beat him.You can't go to war with Lucas and you have to have speed to give Danny problems.

I learned this in 03. I ran into floyd at the bhop/odh fight he said long term plan was to fight gatti. I sat next to gatti on the plane ride home. He said same thing.

Unbelievable story.

A crowd pleasing fight, but again, a one sided affair. Milk that cow, Bob.

And milk it he will. Right down to the last grip-squeeze drop.

Another Pacquiao drubbing - a nothing fight just like Rios - but I don't mind seeing Russell Robotnikov get a good payday for all the entertainment he's given us this year, and simply because he's such a cool dude. Plus, anytime we get to see him do this...



... it means everything is OK in the world.

LOL!!! Uncle Bob is right on schedule. Damn I'm good. Now next, Uncle Bob will come with a pprofanity laced tirade about how GBP are full of **** and how Floyd is ducking Manny. See you in Apr Pac. Bring on Bradley or Provo.

That's been Bob's calling card for promoting Pac fights.

About a month before the fight he'll be saying "I still think that Pacquiao/Mayweather can be made. Just some small little details need to be worked out, like what color wallpaper will be put up in the new stadium ladies' room."

Another human punching bag for Pac's lighting speed.

This punching bag will be more determined than Rios.

Provodnikov is too easy to hit to beat any of those two

Face first fighters are on the menu at Top Rank for Manny.
