Ruslan looks like he wants to cry. I think he should of won a close one but he deserves part of the blame for letting him off the hook in the first

How could anyone not give the last two championship rounds to Ruslan? I gave him the last 3
I didn't bother scoring the fight because right off the bat I figured it would end in Prov KO, but I got the feeling that Algieri won. Prov seemed to fall victim to the classic early knockdown curse, where he hurt a guy bad early and then tried to force the KO the rest of the way.
The reality is, you score on clean punching and effective aggressiveness, and I really didn't see Prov land a whole lot that wasn't blocked or at least partially blocked. In contrast, Algieri was constantly VISIBLY snapping Prov's head back with clean, accurate blows.
I had no gripes with the decision at all.
Spot on. Algieri was boxing Provodnikovs head off at times. No, it wasn't hurting, but he was more active and landing every time Prov came in. For me it was a big first round and maybe 3 rounds more for Prov, but otherwise, Algieri showed he was a much better boxer winning the bulk of the rounds.
total props to algieri. he took a pounding early and came back and put on a boxing clinic, even with one eye!!! impressive!!! he took prov out of the game.....
no controversy here. algieri won....
I think thats inaccurate equally on what Provo didn't do and what Algieri might have done. Awful is Jim 'ghostpunch landed' Lampley speak. He looked like what he was before he knew his name and is now, but it was more than enough to not be screwed over. Call it what you want friend. Cheers.
