Re: Provodnikov VS Chris Algieri is set for 6/14
A little flashy, decent footwork. Flicks that jab out... The fact that that left hand is so active though leaves lots of opportunity for the right hand to over it. When he gets hit, he tends to square up too and leave room for the left hook right behind his glove. Lots of options for Provo on this one. The sledgehammer right, follow up left hook and hooks to the body on both sides.
This fight stands to make provo look good. Probably better than he is. He'll stalk this kid and once he corners him, people are going to wonder how Provo found him so easy. This kid goes down maybe 2-3 times (maybe one from a body shot)... Just my opinion of course, i could be wrong.
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.
