The Official Ruslan Provodnikov vs. Chris Algieri Master Discussion Thread.

[Divine Hammer]

rose a worse punching bag than rios.

[Fr3$h]

What a horrible mismatch, for some reason i find Andrade extremely boring, Rose has zero power and is just waiting to get knocked out, hopefully Andrade gets him outta there asap.

It doesn't look like either one has a lot of power right now. Andrade is hitting him at will but it isn't doing much. Rose is punching like he's pressing elevator buttons.

HBO acts like they are strict with approving opponents then put Brian Rose on their network.

Rose using the Martin Murray gameplan.
Plod forward and have your opponent break his hands on your face before picking it up.

**** sake you are fighting for a world title, losing every round, just go for it and if you get KTFO at least people will pay to see you fight again and you can say you tried.

I hope Andrade doesn't carry this guy. Get him out of there.

He already is.

That combination at the end was sweet!

[mathed]

Wow, Andrade is taking this dude to school, easy style.

[BigTasty]

LOL ward is such a sour dude, He said Andrade showing him he is in the UNITED STATES and that HE IS THE CHAMPION. lol I cant help but think that was meant to Froch.

[mathed]

Wooooweee, party over. Andrade is the real deal...get used to it!!!

[-PBP-]

Meh. Andrade did what he was supposed to do. I'll give him that. That would have been brutal to watch if it went 12.

Make Andrade vs. Kirkland next.
