    Funny thing is, if you switched Lucas for Ruslan and put Broner in Lucas's role, Mattyhsse fans would be screaming that Lucas won based on power and that Broner was scared to trade, had no power, took rounds off, etc. I thought it was a draw and had no argument with Lucas winning by up to 2 rounds. It's just ****** to see Mattyhsse fans being so hypocritical and complaining about unfair commentary.

            nah, i'd say he won 3 comfortably

            4, 11, and 12

            the other two rounds ppl are giving provo are 3 (which i felt lucas won, but w/e) and 5

            according to compubox, 4, 11, 12 were the only rounds in the entire fight that he out-landed matthysse, some of the other rounds...lucas landed at a huge clip compared to ruslan

              It was a close fight. Lucas had some big rounds, especially early on. Then Ruslan had some rounds where he hit Lucas hard enough to win those rounds.

              I didn't score it but Ruslan did come back in the fight.

                I know hbo is full of crap most of the time...

                I actually thought ruslan won a razor close decision... I'm fine with lucas winning, it was by no means a robbery,,, one point either way or a draw... Ruslan came on like gangbusters late in the fight, and was landing the much harder shots

                  I watched in on international broadcast with nearly inaudible commentary but I thought it was really close. Lucas won 7 rounds but the best rounds belonged to Ruslan

                    120 more punches landed. Landing at nearly 50% and that was a close fight. No. A couple flurry and 1 hard shot a rd don't undo everything earlier in the Rd.

                    I feel like I'm in Lala land

                    But the right guy one. Thank god.
                    Did u see the fight or are u regurgitating compu box. Those 100 punches more landed where landed in rounds that he won. Some roubds he didn't do much. Not saying Lucas didn't win but saying fight was not close is absurd. At least the fight I saw. Imo Lucas let Provo back into fight and a draw was not out of possibility.

                      it was close. Lucas just won his rounds more convincingly. 115-113.
