Bradley: "When Provodnikov hit me my life flashed before my eyes!"

[Deevel916]

He said Ruslan hits way harder than Pacquiao and getting hit by Ruslan felt like getting hit with a sledgehammer.

I recall Bradley stating that he was concussed and dizzy for weeks/months after that fight.

Don't doubt it one bit.

I like Bradley, he might talk some trash here and there but at the end of the day the guy is real.

Provodnikov's power is very overrated. His KO ratio is pretty average despite mostly fighting below par opposition.

Lmaoooo I believe it 100%. I still don't know how Bradley survived that fight. There were times in the fight where he was one or two punches away from being KO'd. He is one resilient SOB.

I think it has more to do with his accuracy than power. He's not hitting the right spots to get more kos but his power is very real. He's just not that good to fully utilize it.

Prov hits harder than Pac, but Pac is the better fighter and boxer, and is more likely to hit you with a combination and landing punch after punch.

I remember Tim was slurring his speech for like a month after

KO's and power aren't the same thing. Some not-that-hard punches can put guys down by being accurate or catching them with their neck at a bad angle.

If Bradley says Provodnikov hits that hard I tend to believe him, seeing as he's fought him and you probably haven't.
