    Will Provo vs Mattysse be a battle of chins?

    I've never seen Provo hurt but I've only seen about 5 of his fights. Roy Jones said in the Bradley vs Provo fight that Ruslan was hurt but I didn't see it really.

    Matthysse will definitely get hurt and I see Provo getting the TKO in the 8th.

    Back from my ban btw lol missed the madness of the announcement.

    Danny took away Lucas iron chin from that fight.
    Provo killer instinct and heart will prevail in this fight.

    All the Lucas fan boys are starting the hype train up again like hes going to demolish Provo with ease. Provo is no lightweghit like Molina and look what Molina did to Lucas.

      No because Lucas doesn't have a good chin.

        Not if Matthysse can box. I think Matthysse can beat Provo by a wide margin if he boxes. My gut tells me he will be pulled into a brawl and make the fight a lot closer than it should be.

          When has he ever tried to box? Against Devon and Zab he just paced himself but still was throwing bombs. This will be a tear up and Lucas's chin ain't gonna hold up to a barn burner with Provo.

            Think Barrera v Hamed. Going in you expected Barrera to do "A" and he did "b". In doing so, he completely flustered and destroyed Hamed.

            I agree he hasn't boxed a lot, but I think he has the ability to outbox Provo but again, my gut tells me it won't go this way.

              We will soon see. Matthysse is a ****ing MAN and will not want to take a backward step against Provo.

                Lucas doesnt have the boxing skills like Algeri and Bradley to outboxed Provo and those were close fights. Lucas is really going to get hurt badly. Provo will get hurt as well but his killer mentality is superior to Lucas and will not crack under pressure.

                  More a battle of heart, Lucas has shown he can be hurt, but his willingness to proceed is relentless.

                    Ruslan has too many bad habits. Even if he hurts Lucas he won't capitalize on it. He will allow Lucas to recover and out work him.
