I see two possible scenarios, Bradley plays boxer and it turns out like Pac Vs Rios. Bradley try's to mix it up, and its Provodnokov Vs Bradley but Rios gets the stoppage. I like both fighters and hope its a mix of both those scenarios with a lot of action.
Bradley will not make that mistake again and fight a fighter.Quote:

I didn't hold the judges drunkenness against Bradley, it was his reaction and thumping his chest with 'I thought I won 8 rounds to 4' :-X. The lead up to rematch changed my opinion of him just a bit. Came off like a sincerely bitter asshole.Quote:

Perhaps Teddy changed a few things but that sticks in the gym at this stage I think and does not transfer to the ring on the night. Bradley fights like Holyfield and always has but there is some boxer in him and he's smart. Lets hope for Timmy's sake that Teddy merely gets him not to treat the pocket like his living room. Be interesting to see Atlas in the corner again but please no face slapping. I dont think Tim has the ring savvy to stay out of a fight and could get bombed out while thinking he's Shavers.
This should be a cracker.
Bradley seems to get hurt in every fight these days. I feel his tough career is rapidly catching up with him. He gave his trainer the elbow and hired Teddy to stop him from getting smashed in the mouth, so he's obviously feeling it too.
Rios needs fighters to stand in front of him but is hard as nails. He looked terrific last time out (even though Alvarado is a crack head). Whatever improvement Teddy makes he can't make Bradley punch harder. So a PTS win is his most likely victory. Rios can bang, if he doesn't score a KO he could get a knockdown, and is pretty relentless. If he can make Bradley trade he'll come out on top.
Rios - 4/1.
I've managed to get a ticket for the Provodnikov fight this weekend. I've tried for the previous Monaco Golovkin fights but the Salle Des Etoiles is basically a big disco and they don't even fill it all with seats, unless you're connected to one of the camps or the local movers and shakers you can't get in.
I was really looking forward to this fight but Monaco is a nice weekend. :)
I agree with the consensus: 2 ways for Bradley to win, only one for Rios.
Rios on the upset is a good pick. However, I'll go with Bradley on points.
Depends on which Bradley shows up. I think he has learned his lesson and will box, box, box.Quote:
