Showtime Fight Night! Provodnikov vs Molina Jr plus some

[Kirkland Laing]

Molina winning this at range. This could be the end of Provodnikov as a main event fighter.

He'll still be very relevant as a guy whom a rising star can fight in order to get to a big time fight. "If he can get past the tough, rugged Provodnikov...."

He can be an opponent type guy but if he loses here it's the end of his upward trajectory.

And he lost. Oh well. Lomachenko.

Yeah, he's in Ricardo Mayorga territory.

To be fair, Mayorga beat better competition and lost to superstars.

Provodnikov looked a lil shopworn but mostly his usual plodding self. Kudos to Molina who showed he can box.

How did anyone have that fight close. I had Provo winning two rounds. 116-112 would be best case scenario. 115-113 was way too close. Molina easily won 8 rounds, Provo easily won 1 round, and 3 rounds were fairly close.

What a surprise! Who called a Molina win before this fight?

Was a nice little upset and on replay Molina almost made it look easy. Changed his game and was one with the smart work rate and turned it on its head.

Provod: too many wars in too short of a time span.

Side note: How did guys like Jake LaMotta last for so long...
