    So rather than fight Rios at 140, he's going to fight Algieri? All because he's worried Rios will come in over 140?

    Someone has a dumb manager.

      I'd rather see Algieri. Dulorme is not as tricky as Algerie and Rios is used up. Both have been exposed and at least that element hasn't happened to Algieri yet. Algieri at least presents a puzzle till Prov catches up to him. But that's my preference......everyone is different.

        Man fck arum! He's the one not letting the Rios-Provo happen. He's excuse is "he can't make 140" but Rios had stated multiple times that he can. All arum is thinking about that Rios is one of the biggest, most popular fighter in TR and he knows he knows a 3rd L in a row would plummet Rios stocks. He's a greedy bastard that only cares about his pockets.

          There's also the unanswered question on if he can handle the unrelenting pressure.

          If I knew he'd try to do that, I'd be mildly interested. His last fight, although against a different style of fighter, leaves me uninterested in Alegri
          So uninterested you called him Alegri lol

          I've watched two of his fights: vs Taylor on ESPN FNF, and vs a guy named Peralta Alejo on NBC (it was more than a year ago, so I just vaguely remember the fight).
          He gets hit too much, gets too easily trapped against the ropes and just covers up. He also holds a lot. You can say he's a spoiler. A poor man's Mauricio Herrera.

          Ruslan's pressure will be too much IMO.

            I know i'm spelling it wrong, but it's just the ways my fingers move when I type his name and I don't want to bother fixing it. Hey, if it wins.... I'll spell his name right.

            Maybe if he puts up a good fight too

              To Banner Promotions: No one wants to see this fight.

                Except for Alegri's family!
                Hahaha.... seriously... looks like they're trying to make the most out of HBO.

                GBP has Showtime, HBO has everyone else

                      It's the main event

                      Banner doesn't have a lot of big fighters. I think Provo and Boo BOo are the only champs and the biggest
