I actually saw Ruslan Provodnikov live back in '08 when I was ringside at the Mashaba/Cruz fight when Cruz won the IBF title.
What fun he was to watch!
It was like his 7th fight, I think.

Re: Exciting prospects on fnf this week.
I'm a big fan of both fighters.
Btw, I just noticed Figueroa is out as Ruslan's opponent. According to boxrec, Emanuel Augustus will step in to face Provodnikov.

I found this confirming the change in opponent.

Not sure if I am as interested in Augustus he's waaaaayyy past it, Provodnikov will look stellar.Originally Posted by TigerFan

Re: Exciting prospects on fnf this week.
ugh, I'm not interested in watching old Emmanuel get his ass kicked.
Kim just never stops. The Tyrone Harris fight last time out was pretty fun.

Augustus 10 years ago would have given the kid a ALOT of trouble... Now? Not so much.

Re: Exciting prospects on fnf this week.
Interesting: Francisco Figueroa vs. Emanuel Augustus - Boxrec Boxing Encyclopaedia, but Augustus got KO'd his next fight for the first time since PBF did it. I haven't seem him since the Kid Diamond fight. That was painful enough to watch!

Re: Exciting prospects on fnf this week.
Why is Augustus old? because he got stopped in his last fight by a hard punching welterweight when he has fought most of his career at 135 and 140?

Re: Exciting prospects on fnf this week.
No he's old because of his age and amount of time spent in the ring. He's clearly wearing down, his reactions have slowed and he never had power. Are you saying he's the same fighter he was when he fought Ward?Why is Augustus old? because he got stopped in his last fight by a hard punching welterweight when he has fought most of his career at 135 and 140?

Re: Exciting prospects on fnf this week.
Seriously?Why is Augustus old? because he got stopped in his last fight by a hard punching welterweight when he has fought most of his career at 135 and 140?
He's 35, he's had 75 or so fights, he hasn't looked right in a while, after not looking right for a while he got stopped for the first time in forever, that's why I think he's old.
Watch him win now. I would be thrilled in some ways but Majesty being "right" would suck some of the fun out of it
Did the site just get back up and running? I gave up after a while.
