Comments Thread For: Provodnikov's Promoter: This Could Be a Great Trilogy

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Moments after the action packed fight that was Lucas Matthysse-Ruslan Provodnikov, Provodnikov’s promoter was pushing for a rematch because although Matthysse won the fight on the cards, everyone won.

“This could be something like Gatti-Ward,” Artie Pelullo told BoxingScene.com. “Nobody lost tonight. Yes, Matthysse won the fight but we all won because it was a great fight. I’m happy, Oscar (De La Hoya’s) happy, HBO’s happy. I think we should do this again.”

Matthysse won a majority decision with the scorecards tally being 114-114,115-113 on the two of the scorecards. While Matthysse told the ringside press, he wanted the winner of the big fight between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao.

No way ******.

No way send your fighter to ESPN2. that's where he belongs.
Matthysse already beat Him. NEXT.2 lost fights in a row.Sorry Matthysse has greater challenges than shaving years of his life again.

I'd rather see them both move on to other things.

No thanks. Wasnt really close. Contrary to sobe opinions on here you can't win rds you fight 20 seconds of.

Nope......

I'd rather see Lucas Matthysse vs. Viktor Postol and Mauricio Herrera vs. Ruslan Provodnikov II, .

Why? Matthysse got a clear win, and both guys would be served better to move on. Three fights like that and Ruslan's career is over. Ruslan should stay the **** away from Lucas Matthysse. The Machine can box and he can put some serious hurting on him.

i think one more matthysse fight would ruin provodnikov for good. i could see provodnikov beating peterson though...
