Timothy Bradley Jr. vs. Ruslan Provodnikov - Saturday night fight/chat thread

[Kirkland Laing]

Bradley on points followed by a Manny rematch. Rios wins again in a fortnight and fights Marquez.

The fight I would like to see is Marquez-Bradley. It would be worth more for Marquez's legacy and is a tougher out than Rios. I'm just not sure Marquez would take the fight. given the risk, unless the money was more than I expect it to be.

Maybe Arum does it that way but I'm guessing he does it the way I said. Manny gets a revenge win over a guy we know he can beat, Marquez beats Rios then Manny Marquez 5.

If it is I assume Prime Time who no one has or Sky I think the fight is only worth ESPN FNF for me. I hope this is not PPV for you guys?

No sir, It would bomb on PPV, it's on regular HBO, If it was i'd be hunting a stream.

Its neat that Roach is training Provodnicock, but I don't think he has a great chance in this one. He's #10 in the world fighting a guy who is #4 (behind Floyd, Marquez and Manny). That kind of disparity can make for a competitive fight, but rarely does the #10 contender prevail.

Provodnicock does have punching power and a vengeful, smart cornerman on his side.

As much as I hate to think it let alone type it out, I think Rios wears down Marquez and ends his career. Marquez was pushed to the limit by Juan Diaz in 2009....I think Rios is bigger & badder, I hate the little fucker but he's a good fighter.

I would like to see JMM or Rios vs Bradley, I don't think Ruslan has a chance vs him too slow, too stiff, too easy to hit.

That would be a shame to see JMM lose to a cock like Rios only because he is old. Rios v Bradley would be good.
