    Teddy Atlas had for Provodnikov, but it's a crazy scorecard. He somehow scored round 5 for Ruslan but if you just watch that round it's obviously a Herrera round.

    Herrera lands more punches, but Ruslan lands the harder shots. It was a razor-close fight and they should have just called it a draw.

    I had ruslan winning 8-4. The hard shots n aggression from provodnikov took it for me. But there was close close rounds. I really enjoyed that fight. Ruslans ability to hunt his opponent down seems to have increased vastly since then. His ring presence is much more mature and focused. Credit to roach probably. For people who don't think provodnikov can compete against intelligent boxers I'd refer them to Herrera and bradley. Herrera is a very smart fighter. If he could sit down on his punches without sacrificing movement he'd be a monster. I think he can hit harder than he does most of the time but if he did sit down on his punches that awkward style and use of angles might diminish. I'm sure hope he gets a decent fight next. He was robbed against garcia.

    Provodnikov beat Herrera, but he destroyed Bradley, left Bradly on the canvas. Herrera is the new champion after beating the hell out of Garcia...........

    I had it a draw, and i can see anyone saying Garcia won or Herrera won, it aint robbery like Chisora-Helenius/ Rios-Abril this was close fight.
