    Oh common, what are the odds Provo wins a rematch. The best I'm willing to accept is to have Provo vs Rios as an undercard fight or 'co-main event'.

        Matthysse already proved that he can comfortably outbox Ruslan from a fairly safe distance outside of Provs punching range. Not only am I not interested in it as PPV, I'm not interested in it as a rematch either. 75% of Mathysse Provo was painfully uneventful. I would watch in on TruTV though.

        I would much rather Rios versus either of the two.

          ruslan used to be on freaking ESPN, dog.
          Although I disagree with this fight being PPV, its because the two fighters are not big enough draws.

          But to diss Ruslan for fighting on ESPN? Did you know Floyd, Oscar, Vargas and Shane Mosley all started out on ESPN?

          Ruslan has moved on up man. No need in dissing him for fighting on ESPN before. you start from the bottom and rise to the top. He isn't a ppv star, but he has a good following and has main event cards on HBO already and in Russia.

            Wrong. Rios is slow as hell pulling the trigger with his punches compared to provodnikov. It would be an easier fight for Lucas. Plus Provodnikov is a lot better cutting the ring off than Brandon. Lucas might win 9 out of the 12 rounds.

              Didn't Lucas win 9/12 rounds with Provodnikov? Did I watch a different fight? Provodnikov was getting school only to have a few moments. And I'm a big Ruslan fan.

                I gave him 4 rounds but Lucas clearly won. You think Rios would do better than Ruslan vs. Matthysse?

                  ruslan cuts off the ring and does nothing cause he doesnt get the range he wants lmfao he proved that in the lucas fights, what the hell is the use of cutting off the ring if you still aint benefiting from that. Rios gets in your face and gets the space he wants no matter what.


                  Rios is a 100x better fighter then Ruslan aka mr "stand still in range for my hooks so I can hit you cause thats really the only thing i can do"

                      PPV should be reserved for the big fights like Mayweather vs Pac, Canelo vs Cotto and Cleverly vs Bellew
