    Ruslan needs

    to change his boxing style somewhat. Needs learn to be able to box better. The blueprint is to box him and Bradley, Algieri and Lucas done that.

        Provodnikov needs either a high guard or head movement. The latter would require him to focus on nothing else for at least 12 months, for him to have any chance of actually improving it.

        The former is more doable, but then he has to learn how to let his hands go from that position and forget about those big counters, which in truth are his greatest asset.

        Either way his conditioning would have to improve. With all due respect to Mauricio Herrera, he was talking out of his ass when he said Lucas was one-paced and that Ruslan could shift through the gears. The complete opposite is true. Ruslan is as one-paced as it gets.

        Despite having all the heart in the world, he's just not fit enough to turn the heat up going down the stretch, which is what a guy like him needs to be doing.

                he had a confidence builder before lucas, he fought JLC's corpse in russia

                ruslan is in trouble, he's w/ a low-end promotion and is considered high risk/low reward. i was actually surprised lucas took that fight for no belt on Ruslan's network, that was the exact definition of high risk low reward for matthysse but dude is a monster

                  Rematch not necessary. Matthysse is superior and Ruslan deserves a break from wars.

                      Boring

                      After the 6th round fight became boring and redundant, will not watch again.
