Pretty good fight for a undercard fight,I'm looking see if Matthysse could bounce back after his lost to Postol and see him winning again,also willing to see if he can still damage.

interesting. matthysse definitely needs to answer some questions after the postol fight

I think LM facing a really good boxer like MH is a mistake, he faced a good boxer in Postol and look what happened.

LM needs the kind of fighter who will make him look good like a Provo, a fighter that just comes straight ahead; those bring out the best in him.

He may get soundly outboxed vs Herrera.

This is what I was first hearing, then it switched to a Herrera vs Provo rematch and Matthysse vs Cano...now there's talks of Provo vs Cotto so it looks like this one is in the works again.

Should be a solid fight if it goes down. I think Matthysse either stops Herrera late or wins a decision.

As much as i love the sound of Provo vs Cotto, Provo doesn't have the skill to close the gap and pull a margarito on Cotto.

I don't think so either. Plus Cotto holds all the cards from a Promotional angle so he can probably get Provodnikov to fight him at 154 pounds. Provo will make WAY more money to fight Cotto than he would for any other fight that's on the table for him right now so he'll probably gladly concede the weight advantage to Cotto given the amount of money he'll be making here. Which will make the advantage for Cotto in the fight even greater than it already would've been.

Provodnikov is freakin massive i'm amazed he made 140 for so long. I don't think fighting at 154 is an issue. Fun fight if it comes off but top much a gap in levels.
