Provodnikov vs Pacquiao on April 12?

[ironmt]

Manny admittedly got hurt bad by a blown up 135 pounder in Rios, whats he supposed to do to this monster Prov....

The Prov Bradley fight should have showed that Prov simply is a higher level fighter than the current declined Manny. Prov should have stopped Bradley like 4 times over and put him on his ass forcing Timmy to wait out the bell, basically being saved by the bell. Manny was a guy that let pillow fisted Bradley break his will and determination, a guy that ran away from a Bradley rematch while Prov made Bradley one of his Jr's.........

This is simply a fight meant to ruin Manny before his contract is up years end, keeping him away from Mayweather, you are blind if you deny this. It is also one of boxings unofficial rules not to face sparring partners they know your speed, power, habits and bad tendencies. Roy sparring partner put a prime Anabolic Roy on his ass and gave him hell.......

Wasn't Rios 9-10lbs heavier then Pacquiao the morning of the fight?

You can't put chicken **** in a salad, and call it a chicken salad.

Bradley's not chicken ****. He's grade A, 100%, lean chicken. The fight would be chicken salad.

I don't know man. In the rounds he won, he DOMINATED, and wasn't even touched. That's a clear indication that he can do such things.

He even said it HIMSELF. He went out to prove the critics wrong.

So when fighters say something it's gospel?

Your really gonna sit here and tell me that he came out and intented to get hurt the entire fight? To please people like you and me most people go out and just beat ass not get there ass beat in the process. Sure he dominated when he boxed but he still got caught he gets caught all the time just nobody was as big of a puncher as Provo when bradley could box he won when he got caught he didn't he got his ass beat bradley didn't brawl and fight with that man because he wanted to he had to, Provo made him fight his fight. You know why he didn't box circles around him because his damn legs were gone from getting cracked he was getting hurt with jabs ffs.

Lol bradley must be mayweather now he stood toe to toe to plz the fans never mind that it actually could have been the other fighter causing this to happen

Guy loses before the fight gets made. Dude heart is not there for this fight, so why bother him? Manny Pac, if he really told him to take the fight, shows how he really feels about their so-called "tight" relationship. Manny's eagerness, and Prod's refusal, make the relationship out to be nothing more that idol worship.

Homie, let's just dead this. You said Pac needs to face Prov and beat him convinvingly in order to market the Bradley fight, and make it bigger.

My rebuttal to that is,

We kosher?

And............. Manny Pacquaio was a guy that held a JMW title, was Manny complaining about being badly hurt post fight then, you dont find it weird now he's forced to pick on blown up lightweights/lww like he has the last 2-3 years, do you not see bytchassness in that, his handlers know his chin has declined............

Not to mention Wasn't Rios just coming off a brutal loss to a 140 pounder, wasn't Rios pop questionable at 135-140(he just lands a lot of shots no big pop).

[HanzGruber]

Prov-Pac would be a huge fight and a great war. It beats anything Marquez or Bradley can offer.

It would sell less than rios fight. But there would actually be a fight this time lol

[sugarsmosley]

I knew we wouldn't get Provodnikov-Rios.

Pacquiao will slaughter Provo.

exactly why i would rather see the bradley fight, fighting provo doesn't do much for pac. i also highly doubt provo would sell more PPV than a bradley fight..

[sslg99]

There sparring partners, so they both know exactly how eachother fight. That means its all about who knows how to exploit the other's weaknesses better, and pac's a smarter fighter so i got him if this fight ever happens

I take It you are not a Manny Pacquiao fan, Is the term bytchassness a ****** term? Anyway, from watching the Rios fight, which round or particular punch leads you to the conclusion that Pacquiaos chin has declined? Yes Pacquiao did win a championship at JMW, not bad for a guy that started out as a flyweight. What does It matter what Rios weight was In a fight he had previously? When he fought Pacquiao he was the bigger man and out weighed Pacquiao by 10lbs.

[Da Boxer]

He should fight JMM. Bradley should fight Manny.

No other way.

This.

I love Provo but I think that Pac will destroy him, it may not stop him but it would hurt him.
