Should be a great fight, can't see how it won't live up to its potential.
Floyd-Manny is overshadowing everything.
This is beyond a sicko matchup. Be surprised if it doesn't live up to the FOTY billing. Although I don't believe anybody in the world, around Matthysse weight, can consistently get smashed in the head by him and not end up unconscious.
I can see Prod taking unbelievable punches, having his own success, but ultimately ending up face first on the canvas.
Looking forward to these two guys going to war. Can't wait for this potential FOTY, can't pick a winner either both can KO the other.
Is this really happening? I thought they had different promoters.
This has to be an intense walk through hell for both. Fantastic fight. The selfish sadist in me hopes for a draw so they'll have to do it again ;D
Well it's unannounced and scheduled for nbc so it appears it's real.Quote:

I think Prov will get stopped, no way can he live with Matthysse's power.
Yes I'm picking Matthysse as well.Quote:

i might make a point of watching this
i cant see how this wont at least be a FOTY candidate. matthysse should win and needs to fight smart. he shouldnt try to show how tough he is. provo only knows how to go forward. i dont think provo lasts the distance. he may not be down for the count but his face will probably be busted up enough that the doctor will stop the fight.
Agree with everyone , this is going to be a bit of a barnstormer. I'm just leaning towards Matthysse in a Brutal fight that goes all the way, but he will have to box a little bit smart. Could be a split decision though.
i dont think it will last the distance
I think Matthysse will knock him out, Prov wont hold like Garcia did, hell fight back and try and hit him harder
im excited about it
Yeah , he might knock him out, but I just think this Provodnikov guy absorbs loads of brutal punishment (and gives some out) and just keeps coming. He's never been stopped yet, but maybe he's never met someone who can bang like Matthysse. gonna be good though.Quote:
