Love how Rios will fight anybody . "Fans want it F*** it lets do it !"

Thats an attitude to be admired and celebrated rather than a fighters bank account

pac couldve but didnt for the sake of rios' health.. provo actually goes for the kill.. rios might be a dead man walking if he signs the paperwork, but props to rios cause he got some major cajones

rios didn't fight like rios he shelled up. the moment was too much for him. he won't be like that against provo we'll see the return of the old rios which means provo would have a good chance to finally KO rios

I'm worried for Rios's health. He finally stepped up in weight instead of beating up smaller men like Broner to gain his belts.

Now he is facing top opponents in his normal weight class yet has the lowest level of boxing skill out of all of them....which mean's he is going to be a punchbag. His power and chin ain't gonna help him much. Roach is gonna have Provo rip his anus out..it will be a great fight. but really fcked up to watch after 6 rounds...

Ruslan by devastation

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Ruslan is the 2nd best WW in the world behind Pacquiao

Except he's not a welterweight

He fought Bradley at 147 and hes huge. Hes a natural 147 that has to drop down to 140

They should make this fight happen.

This would be a fun fight! But I think if I were Brandon's manager I wouldn't take this fight . He could fight several other fighters who are good and he could beat whiteout putting his body threw another war. He has had 3 wars in a row and taken way to much punishment. Let him get two good fighters under his belt like Pauli malinaggi or Devon Alexander . Great fights! But win or lose he lives to have other big fights later on and they shouldn't take a lot out of him.

Rios is with Top Rank, those are GBP fighters i.e. out of reach for him.

No way. Rios needs to get a win before fighting Prov to make this good.
Good fight but if Rios loses..thats 3 in a row and Prov is cat hat make you look bad or end your career!

Rios doesn't need a long career imo, he's hit his ceiling and made his money. The guy takes too many shots to have a long career.

[Tyler_Durden]

Great tough fight for both guys, would like to see Ruslan attack Brandon's body to break him down and get a KO/TKO victory and make it another great win.

rios will have mush for brains after about 2 more fights yo

[Weebler I]

Bob Arum should make this happen instead of trying to stuff Pac-Provo down our throats.
