Comments Thread For: Algieri: Provodnikov Would've Been Easy Without Round 1

[SeekDaGreat]

I thought Provodnikov won the fight. Algieri was doing nothing but dancing for most of the fight, while ruslan was landing big shots. Algieri only got a rhythm going when Provodnikov was tiring from chasing him so much,I don't think his perfromance was enough to overcome two knockdowns.

He scored a draw, at best.

This fight is a joke, nothing he says will change that. I'm offended that it's on PPV, this is a Friday Night Fights headliner on ESPN.

movers or runners are low on my list, except Cassius Clay who showed to be the GREATEST OF ALL TIME ! When he moved in circles around the bear Sonny the kILLER LISTON, it wasn't long until he unleashed a barage of punches so fast and shook Liston to his toes!!! Cassius Clay was a killer in his own right.

Take May Jr but more especially Algieri , they RUN but are not killers, just survivors, pot shot and run like the devil, pot shot and run,,,,,neither could carry Clays JOCK STRAP

This bum ass fight is a disgrace. PPV is what has me more pissed. It should be free.

Algerie is only doing his job

He has to try to help sell this terrible match-up. PAC is suppose to act intimidated also to help sell this mismatch to the green boxing public (wink-wink) I tnink arum may lose on this sorry promotion on PPV

Pac has to do the same thing Floyd did to sell PPVs against Victor Ortiz, The Ghost, Maidana, and more..

I thought Algieri damn near swept the rest of the rounds after that. They were all close, but he was outworking Ruslan in all of them.

Same here, till this day I struggle to see how some had Provodnikov winning.
