Ruslan Provodnikov vs Mike Alvarado

[gilgamesh]

Provodnikov's got him

[Blodhemn]

Anybody want to still underrate the Siberian Rocky? Ffs.

[gilgamesh]

Mike got the chicken legs good for running... Mikes been exposed as a true marathon runner can't fight

He can definitely fight...turns out Provodnikov can fight better

[Blodhemn]

Broke Alvarado into.

[Blodhemn]

Broke his ass in fuckin two.

[gilgamesh]

Broke Alvarado into.

Yeah those rounds he was driving to the midsection were hurting me. Really thunderous bodyshots landed over and over by Provo. That's what broke Alvarado

[gills13]

Mike got broke off real tough damm fake ass fighter get out the ring its a mans world....congrats provodkonov

[Blodhemn]

Ruslan should punch the booing crowd with those brutal body shots.

[lefty]

What a classy, nice guy Provodnikov seems. He's being announced as world champion and instead of celebrating he's talking in Alvarado's ear, probably saying how he'll come back and so on. Really happy for him

Man you do not want to lose your title sitting on a stool. Wouldn't have made it through the next round, but still.

He was completely gone though mate. I think it was his cornermen that stopped it. Also with the bad weight cut he had yesterday you dont want to be taking sustained punishment.

[Blodhemn]

Ruslan's mom is now a TV star.

Rios' fatass is next(to be ktfo'd).

That would be a seriously fun matchup as they're both constantly on the front foot.

[Blodhemn]

If Bradley wants some Siberian thunder he'd can get some too, but I seriously doubts he takes a rematch.

So was Bradley a good few times. Lose it in the ring, trust the referee to do the right thing if he needs to, don't lose it on your stool. I mean, is he ever winning another?

[crusader]

That's what made Bradley's performance so laudable though. Most times a fighter is that condition (and Alvarado seemed more hurt than Bradley to me) things don't end well for them.

[Blodhemn]

Think Garcia would take a beating against Ruslan. He wouldn't hesitate like Matthysse.

I don't know, Bradley had no idea where he was some rounds of that fight, I'd say he took a bigger beating than Alvarado just did. Alvarado had his heart broken, and it's just not something I expected to see. I wasn't there taking the punches though.

I guess you're watching it on sky aswell? Apparantly it was the ref who stopped it they reckon.

[Blodhemn]

Alvarado's body was broken. Wouldn't be surprised he's got a cracked rib. Ruslan didn't goto Bradley's body like that, but his head was buzzed over and over.

[lefty]

Im curious, what do you fella's think would be the outcome if Provodnikov fought Matthysse?

[DMA1987]

Oh really? That negates most of what I just levelled at him then.

Macklin is back with Gallagher apparently, I missed that.

Ricky Burns just did 10 rounds with a snapped Jaw.

Alvarado had been dropped twice, battered for three rounds straight, taken a lot of punishment over ten rounds (Bradley was battered over the first two and then generally avoided serious damage until the final rounds), and he looked like he didn't know where he was after the tenth ended. I think he was seriously hurt and I don't think losing on his stool will generally be looked upon negatively.

[Blodhemn]

Would be a fight Id like to see. Doubt Matthysse could take many of those clean hooks, but he could fight a boring jab fight from distance. Would like to see Ruslan vs both Matthysse and Garcia.
