    Default Exciting prospects on fnf this week.

    Ji-Hoon Kim is the main card for those of you that haven't seen him he is a heavy pressure guy, once he gets going he doesn't leave his opponents a chance to breathe. He's fighting young Ameth Diaz who's claim to fame was being a stay busy fight victim for Joan Guzman. Diaz has been in with the better competition and I'm sure Atlas will reiterate this point every round, but he's no world beater. Kim of course isn't some fancy boxer, he's just a straight up pressure fighter. Look forward to this one, could be a barn burner, even though the skill level isn't at the highest level. This fight is an IBF title eliminator which means the winner will never get a shot at the title the current IBF rankings have a vacant title with #1 and #2 not rated.

    Everyone's favorite Russian prospect Ruslan Provodnikov faces off against KO of the year victim and clothing designer Franky Figueroa. Figueroa always gives an honest effort and has some good foot movement that may present a few problems for Provodnikov, but ultimately it's hard to picture any other conclusion except a brutal stoppage for Ruslan.

    Overall both fights should be entertaining at least with enough pressure to boil water. Hope to see you all there.

    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.

    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.

    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.
