Haymon did some sucker **** with the stub hug center and forced them have to go to Verona. Hope the people upstate realize this is gonna be a great fight and show up. I'm gonna be in jersey for the UFC event. I'm hitting up the bar right after to catch this fight. War Matthysse!!!

Lucas needs to box otherwise he's getting seriously hurt. Ruslan throws faster hands on the inside, and is more durable, IMO. He needs to stay on the outside, and Tito Trinidad him.

Provod will win on this fight! They won't call him Siberian Rocky for nothin'.

I expect lucas to be conservative in this one and minimize brawls as much as he can until maybe the 8th ...stoppage no matter what & slightly favor lucas

[FrenchDeLaHoya]

broner should have taken on mattyhhsse instead of maidana. outboxed him. nd his career wouldve been riding such a high by now

i'd like to see Matthysse win it since Provo dragged ole Castillo up to Russia to beat him up for no good reason, but i think Provo will win this.

[El Campesino]

Matthysse better punish Provodnikov for picking on old Jose Luis Castillo!
