ok I just re-watched the fight. I had the score 113-112 or 114-111 provodnikov.
round 1 was 10-7
So Algieri and Provo both won 6 rounds a piece on my card, but provodnikov had that 10-7 round. With round 11 could have gone either way to either fighter but if I gave it to Algieri its still 113-112
People really make me cringe on this site, wtf and how do you score a fight based on what? who you want to win or landed punches or what? Ruslan obviously scored the harder,cleaner, punches, but algieri staed on his bike and outboxed him. But people forget this is a fight not a style contest, who would you rather be at the end of that fight? Algieri was running for his life and had 1 eye, if the fight was 15 rounds how would he continue?
personally I only watched it once and I think ruslan might have won by a point but he took his foot off the pedal. IDK im torn between the 2 and need to sit down and watch it again but from what I saw live, a fight, I think Ruslan won the fight but Algieri won the boxing match. Wasn't not that long ago where when a boxer would choose to box instead of fight then the loser wouldn't be exposed but simply lost on "points" idk man i really don't know. The people who say Danny beat Herrera or Maidana beat floyd should be the same people saying Ruslan beat Algieri. SO WHY THE FCK ARE THERE DOUBLE STANDARDS?
Herrera schooled Danny.
Provo won closely against Algieri
Maidana-Floyd was anywhere from 5-7 to 7-5.
How about removing your emotions and being honest and unbiased, you will enjoy the sport a lot more. I am not talking directly about the TS either I am talking IN GENERAL. I find that fans get caught up way too much into this Countrymen, Race Pride and a Bunch of other CRAP that has nothing to do with Boxing and plays NO determining factor as far as who wins
This has ruined Forums like and this mostly only happens ONLINE because in person at fights and at fight parties people are enjoying the fights and no excuse are made after the fight. Robbery is screamed but literally anybody on this forum when "THEIR GUY" lose instead of just admitting defeat and giving props to the other fighter.
Are you describing the people who scored nearly every round for Algieri? because that's what you just described.
Provo is a bad guy because he is associated with Top Rank and Roach.
