Matthysse vs. Provodnikov?!?

[erics44]

i might make a point of watching this

i cant see how this wont at least be a FOTY candidate. matthysse should win and needs to fight smart. he shouldnt try to show how tough he is. provo only knows how to go forward. i dont think provo lasts the distance. he may not be down for the count but his face will probably be busted up enough that the doctor will stop the fight.

Agree with everyone , this is going to be a bit of a barnstormer. I'm just leaning towards Matthysse in a Brutal fight that goes all the way, but he will have to box a little bit smart. Could be a split decision though.

I think Matthysse will knock him out, Prov wont hold like Garcia did, hell fight back and try and hit him harder

im excited about it

Yeah , he might knock him out, but I just think this Provodnikov guy absorbs loads of brutal punishment (and gives some out) and just keeps coming. He's never been stopped yet, but maybe he's never met someone who can bang like Matthysse. gonna be good though.

Quite simply, it COULD be the greatest fight of all time.

[erics44]

isnt it good that the whole board are mutually excited about a fight?

Best fight of 2015 on paper.
