Greater fighters than Ruslan don't want to fight Pacquiao. His statement is not that bad.
Rustlan P. is on record saying he wont fight Pac, why isnt he a duck, coward,etc?

I don't think marquez legs would keep him away from ruslan, i think it would be like the diaz fights, he would have to fight him off. I think pac vs rusland would look like pac vs rios, onesided.Why do you think Ruslan vs. Marquez would be a war?
Marquez is a pure boxer, technical minded. And he's smart enough to not engage with a guy who can brawl.
Pacquaio though isn't a pure boxer and doesn't mind to engage/brawl, even if it's reckless. Ruslan vs. Pacquaio would seem better than a Marquez fight.
I think a rematch would Bradley would be way different. Bradley would box 100% of the way.
Yeah bradley vs ruslan II might look more like bradley vs marquez but ruslan deserves a second chance after such a close first fight.Comment

Good points about Marquez.I don't think marquez legs would keep him away from ruslan, i think it would be like the diaz fights, he would have to fight him off. I think pac vs rusland would look like pac vs rios, onesided.
Yeah bradley vs ruslan II might look more like bradley vs marquez but ruslan deserves a second chance after such a close first fight.
I don't think Pac vs. Rusland would be so one-sided though. I actually favor Rusland in that fight. I don't think he'd stink it up like Rios did. But who knows. Rusland does deserve a rematch with Bradley though. Definitely.Comment

Same reason Hairbrush wouldn't fight "big bro".I'm just curious why are other fighters labeled ducks and get called out on how "scared" they are when they don't fight someone but then you have Rustlan Provokdinov who is on record saying he refuses to fight Pac but no one is calling him a ducker, a coward and all that stuff?
Why?Comment

Sounds like a double standard to me. In reality, no world class boxer should admit he'd lose to another fighter anyway, especially if they're both around the same weight class. I think the main reason Provodnikov won't fight Pacquaio is because of the fact that they both have the same trainer and are stablemates.He sparred pac, he knows pac and he probably knows his own limitations and that he most likely has no chance of beating pac so he dosen't want it. As long as there are other good fights to be made i don't have a problem with it.
I also had no problem with broner or garcia not wanting to fight floyd. They know they wont win so there is no point. If a guy is already mentally beat, believing he can't win a fight then it's to no use to call for it.
People could call it cowardly but i don't see it as such, if a guy thinks he has a chance but won't take it that is cowardly but if a guy thinks he has no chance then it's just logical to not wan't the fight.Comment
