Dan Rafael reported that Broner-Provodnikov is in negotiations. Who wins it?

[SkillspayBills]

Why do they KEEP ****ING doing fights on the same day day/

[Mr.Fantastic]

Broner by decision. I hope I'm wrong and Provodnikov knocks his ass out.

[The Big Dunn]

No, he can't. He has no clue how to deal with someone like Provodnikov. You saw it vs Maidana and Porter.

Broner has a lot of room for improvement. IMO he just needs to work harder and stay clean.

If the man gives up the drugs and liquor, eats right, keeps in shape like a haggler/Floyd/bhop and practices his craft he still has a chance.

I doubt he can do it but anyone can change if they work hard enough.

[Eastcoast]

I actually have to pick Broner over Provodnikov. AB can take a serious beating and if Matthysse can box your ears off.....

[brettWall]

This is not hard to believe. Provo I believe is not signed with TR. Plus, Broner is broke, is riddled with court cases, and was reported to have been getting cash advances from Haymon. He's got six kids and mistresses to feed. Fighting another Molina will certainly not help him recuperate financially.

This might even happen earlier than expected.

Been expecting a big, lucrative fight next for Broner with all the financial mess is in. I just didn't expect it to be Provodnikov.

This is another brutal punishing fight for the Russian. A possible knockout win for Broner. Roach should step in and laser-focus on Provo this time. Roach will even help make the fight even bigger.

Yea but to tell you the truth Broner wasn't brought and raised that way. All you have to do is look at his dad and then you can tell he wasn't brought up with discipline and hard work. At least Floyd was raised to be a fighter from the day he was born and just look at SR. the dude is in great shape for being his age. Sr. installed that hard work and discipline at a young age. And haggler and BHop for who they are. But Broner cant and doesn't know how to change, its got to come from the inside of a man and that part wasn't installed in Broner so he doesn't have it.

I laughed but had really never thought about the point about his pops. He doesn't look like exercise and eating right are things he is teaching AB.

If this fight happens all broner needs to do is move his feet and box to win. Ruslan only knows how to fight one way. And he can deal with guys that refuse to stand still in front of him. This should bean easy win for ab. However is ab loses his gravy train is done

Ive heard Broner and improvement on the same sentence for 3+ years now... still waiting for it.

Except Broner only fights one way, can't move his feet, isn't active enough to make Provodnikov freeze, and doesn't hit anywhere near hard enough to get Provodnikov's respect.

People always say, "if he just moves" and it's NEVER that simple. Broner can't just "move" and suddenly that wins him the fight.
