Danny Garcia vs. Ruslan Provodnikov.

[DoktorSleepless]

I think Peterson beats Garcia. Provo is not the only one left.

danny garcia is not good man.. I'll let you people carry on with this bull**** i said what i had to say

Well I don't understand under what criteria you rate Provodnikov over Garcia but Garcia has much better wins under his belt and both lost to the same guy in Herrera. You carry on with your bull**** where Ruslan is handing out one sided beatings to guys like Danny and Maidana.

[FrankieClutch]

I think Lamont Peterson is next for Danny

[SlySlickSmooth]

Ruslan has good chances, he can be very explosive when his opponent doesn't expect it. He's learned a good amount from Roach.

Not sure if Danny just had an off night against Herrera or what but I think Danny can come out with a decision, because for sure he isn't knocking Ruslan out. Danny will find spots to put in his offense because Ruslan occasionally takes some time off during rounds but he can't be loading up like he sometimes does.

Garcia loses just like he should have lost his last fight. Garcia has never been knocked down so he goes the full 12 rounds and loses a close one to Ruslan who has also never been knocked down. It's a good close fight that will probably never happen.

Danny would win..


Ruslan has little head movement and would walk into Danny's counters all day...

Danny gets ko'ed by Ruslan

He's too easy to hit

[DosRounds]

Ruslan a beast

[Bushidō]

Garcia has beaten Matthysse, Khan, and Judah. Other than Herrera, Provodnikov is his only opponent left at 140. How does he do?

garcia would rip Provodnikov with left hooks. Yes he would get hit too but I think Garcia is just better than Prov

[Foreign Soil]

I do feel like Ruslan is getting a little overrated , but I like his chances to drag this fight out to deep water. All in all, danny probably does JUST enough to escape. Prov still has those activity lulls, and his face is prone to damage so those are some concerns.

but Ruslan is someone who will be constantly slipping under Danny's shots and with not much coming from underneath from Danny i think he will have a hard time keeping Ruslan off of him. That Herrera fight was a big eye opener for me as it realtes to gArcia, before I felt like he was able to adjust to most things, but he is missing some variety that is going ot be apparent against guys who change levels. I think Prov will find a sweet spot inside of Garcia's wider hooks and really drag this one out.

Solid, unbiased, non-fanboy post. Agree with a lot said here.
