Comments Thread For: Provodnikov-Matthysse HBO Bound, Network Matches Offer

[twosweethooks]

this is a limited skilled great fight. i'm going with matthysse by Ko.

I will take the Russian Eskimo KILLA by KO

Both are my favorite fighters, I am leaning a bit on Mathysse for a TKO win due to cuts on Provos face. But if these two stands there and trade bombs after bombs? It'll be over quick.

If Lucas can box smart , and withstand the onslaught , for the first three rounds , then he should be able to win. Provo goes all out early but fades quickly, this is probably the most competitive match so far this year.

Showtime will likely have 10-15 SHO Championship Boxing events this year, 2-4 PPV events, and maybe 15-20 ShoBox cards this year.

I've read a lot of ridiculous things on boxing sites but this has to take the cake!

By your math Showtime will have at a minimum 27 boxing events this year and a maximum of 39 cards telecast. It is February already and they haven't scheduled any fights this year that I know of. By the time they get in gear with their first fight then according to you we can expect about a fight card a week on Showtime?

It's nice that you want to defend Showtime vs HBO but get real. Who are you really? Mrs. Espinoza?

I agree but I question Matthysse's team, will they even know that much about Provo to know that he fades after 4 rounds?

I wonder if Provo is keeping himself in better shape between fights? Before he fought Algerie he looked more like a Siberian Bear in the fall than a Siberian Caveman.

Im good either way

Showtime put on 4 shows in December 2014.

Beyond that, Showtime works with a guy with access to over 160 fighters directly, and more indirectly, while also having a the budget committed to put on fight cards.

if you honestly think that Showtime can't manage 2 cards a month, you're a clown.
