Something Was Mentally Off With Provodnikov Last Night

Algieri's movement and Provodnikov's lack of jab.

 

I think it was more about him being uncertain on how to attack. I have No idea why his team made that match.

 

Think it was mostly just never having a chance to set his feet and unload, algeri kept moving and never gave him a stationary target which frustrated ruslan. That being said ruslan did openly say he was disappointed in having to fight algeri

 

No fan boy no lol

He was just in with a guy with good boxing skill not a face first brawler. Provo said it himself

 

Yes his bar room brawling style was shown not to be effective against a boxer.

 

Couldve been that 8 foot jab Algieri had in Provs face from rds 2-12

 

:happy

 

Was that a mandatory? I have no clue, unless he ad to, why they made that match. He'd have had much more success against guys like rios, Lucas, porter.

 

He's already said himself that this was the worst possible style for him to face. He didn't look mentally weak in the first round did he? Let's just give some credit to the winner.

 

But at the end of the day when a grown man is throwing punches at your face I feel like there is no way you don't get motivated pretty damn quick. Motivated or not he struggles with that style

 

Seriously, Algieri is 5'11 and runs like a rabbit from a 5'6 guy. That's ****ing hilarious. His weakass shots and slapping from the clinch was annoying to watch.

 

A World Champion should not be struggling with a style called "boxing".

He walks forward like a caveman with no defence taking head shots, that is not boxing the way I learned it.

He got outsmarted, and out boxed by a Man with a big heart.
