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

[Kirkland Laing]

It's a real shame Provodnikov didn't win that fight. Almost every time Bradley properly engaged he got clocked. Bradley was one big punch away from being ended in the second.

[Kirkland Laing]

Bradley is the house fighter. You can tell from the first rounf knockdown that wasn't ruled. He gets the decision.

[Kirkland Laing]

Great fight though.

If they hadn't robbed the Russian of the first round KD he would have won.

I thought the 12th round was a 10-7 round for Provo as well.

That was one of the best fight I've seen this year.

Is anyone truly suggesting that Bradley lost that fight? I find that a strange way of thinking and especially as there was seemingly no KD in the first (I think there should have been a knockdown). Even with 2 scored KD's Provodnikov was outboxed throughout 3 quarters of the fight. That makes it closer, but an actual loss for Bradley? Peculiar.

Agreed! I enjoyed it from start to finish.

Rios-Alvarado II isn't on for another 2 weeks, you can probably find the first fight on YouTube.

They're currently showing "Road to Rios-Alvarado" on HBO. No?

I thought Timmy won the fight based on the call. Closed the show very nice and never had a 10/8 scored against him.
