Yeah its on the Provodnikov/Molina Jr undercard,that can only be a great fight,i actually fancy John to win that one,he has a bit more class that Ruslan

I like Zlaticanin,ever since he came over here to fight Burns,how Ricky managed to only loss by SD that night i'll never know but luckily the right man won,i seen him KO Redkach as well who was another touted prospect,ive never seen Mamani but noticed he had a points win over Corley,i expect Dejan to win the title,at long last,wasnt the win over Burns an eliminator?

It was an eliminator mate yeah. I was at the fight and never watched it back. I thought it was tight at the time. I went to the weigh in the day before and saw the size of Zlaticanan and thought Burns would make easy work of him lol.

Provo v Molina should be a proper tussle. Both have a tendency to mark up so I hope it isn't stopped because of this.

What happened to Marsili

Zlaticanin wins this and looks impressive in doing so.
Really good fighter who's starting to move up the rankings in the 'Who needs him club' without a world title he'd be completely avoided.

Hope Provo grinds out a points win. Got to a point were I'm sick of seeing him in wars. His head movement has completely stopped.

Richard Commey is ranked one placed below Mamani in the WBC rankings. Zlaticanin v Commey would have been interesting.

Yes but he's ordered to fight for vacant IBF title few days ago and wasn't in training camp.

I think he had a bad case of the flu and wasn't able to train as much as he needed to be or something. Must have been pretty bad as he's been waiting for a world title opportunity for years now and he's 39 I think.

Glad Molina won last night, enjoyable fighter to watch. He was also sporting some of the best shorts I've ever seen

I know the opponent wasn't up to much but Dejan looked impressive after a long lay off.

Didn't throw the kitchen sink from the off like his last fight really timed his shots well.

Just want to see theses good lightweights mix it up now.

Good to see Zlaticanin pick up the title,looks good for Burns too,he'll be a tough fight for any lightweight,he's a bit crude and left hand happy which i remembered from his fight with Ricky but he is solid and strong and just keeps ploughing forward,the southpaw stance just adding to his opponents problems,Mamani actaually done well to stay on his feet a couple of times after being visably wobbled and he had an ok 2nd round after a bad 1st,he probably should have took a knee before the ref jumped in to give himself some respite

Zlaticanin vs Linares will be fun,hopefully Jorge's fit to fight


Molina Jr/Provodnikov was excellent as expected,i had it 115-114 to John,his busier workrate and all round better abilty seeing it through,Provo was always dangerous though especially with the lunging lead left hooks,fought at a great pace especially when you consider both guys were loading up from the off

Great fight and im glad Molina won,i fancied him to edge it,its good to see him win a big one,he seems like a nice guy and always gives value for money

Where's the standard " Zlaticanin will be too much for Crolla" comment, after he's stopped a late substitute for a vacant title?

There was no talk of Crolla in this thread until your post.
