Comments Thread For: Provodnikov on Showtime Move: Glad Someone Believes in Me!

which of his losses were embarrassing?

they were all pretty competitive, razor thin even. He had both Bradley and Algieri doing backflips across the ring.

the most one sided was matthysse but that's not really an embarrassing guy to lose to and he still got hit a lot

provo just is what he is, great puncher with major mobility problems

Even in the Matthysse fight he won most of the later rounds and I had Lucas winning by only 1 round. WTF is this canelo fan saying?

He wasn't clearly beaten by either Lucas, Algieri, or Bradley.

as a matter of fact i think he won against Algieri and Bradley.

I'm not sure why these ***** ass canelo fans hate on Prov. He could be a fighter with only about 2 pro losses if he had other judges there those nights.

He whooped Bradleys ass fair and square. Ruslan is still a contender unless he is punch drunk...

"HBO tried you, and you failed to deliver. It was one embarrassing loss after another. You started becoming a stepping stone right before our very eyes, sorry it had to end that way....

Good luck. I see they gave you Molina Jr. to make you look like "your old self" again. But the old you was getting to crafty boxers like Herrera and Bradley.

This is basically, my divorce letter to Provodnikov."


All while you have a picture of a guy who won't defend his title at his specified weight class and lost to Lara?

He beat Bradley in what was IMO the best fight of the year. The ref completely failed to signal a knockdown that would have given him the fight, that must have been a very bitter pill to swallow.

And this is his "embarrassing" loss against Algieri...



He's just one of those guys... If the judges blinked at a different moment those losses would be wins. Googling his record doesn't tell the whole story.

What's with the generalizing? I'm a fan of Canelo and Provo, and Provo was obviously robbed by Arum in that Algieri fight. After that JMM KO, I think Arum didn't want to risk losing the big money-grab, MayPac fight by putting Pac in with another puncher like Ruslan. A lot of Provo's fights were close or could have gone the other way.

Lmao @ guy who said his losses were embarrassing.....he almost killed Bradley!!

[KillaMane26]

Rios vs ruslan has to happen though....its the closest we will ever get to.gatti vs ward....with both guys not having any plan b

Good fight with Molina Jr. Provo has a lot left and he can still be put in major fights.

He's not signed exclusively to Showtime so he could always go back and fight on HBO.

I'm just glad Provo is coming back to fight. He always brings it and is always in a entertaining fight.
