Great action fight, but it's kinda sad that 2 losses in a row gets you a title shot...

Provo deserves a lot better than that cackling fat bag of sand. Network rewards hoping on a fury from Rios he left in his hotel room last time.
This will be a hell of a fight. I'd expect Provodnikov to hurt Rios, maybe drop him and win by decision.
Rios could surprise us though with his constant pressure.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
Good fight hope it is not on ppv. The top rank merry go round continues.

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
With the shortage of options for Top Rank/HBO it was inevitable that this fight gets made at some point. Provodnikov wins. They've got him in a holding pattern for Manny.
This is a fantastic fight. I see Provo potentially stopping Rios.
Provodnikov wins by KO surely?

Fantastic, really? I think it will be entertaining but to be fantastic for me there needs to be a higher level of quality. Rios has lost 3 of 4 and his one win was avenged. I can't even think of a division that Rios could make and be top level in. Can he make 140, I'm not sure? He was taking crap to get his doughy muffintop down to 147.
Rios is going to start slurring his speech after this fight...
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.
