Amir Khan vs Ruslan Provodnikov

You think Provos style has no problem with guys who are fast and can move?

Khan is essentially better than Algieri in every way.

Hes like Algieri but he hits harder, is physically stronger and is faster....and more skilled to boot.

 

Safe bet would be Khan by wide UD but you I don't know what will happen if he takes a Provodnikov shot.

 

Well your opinion is worthless to me as well you are downright delusional about Khan. He isn't a fighter. He can do fine when matched with feather fisted counter punchers he has proven that much. What he hasn't proven is that he can deal with pressure power punchers. Why has Khan been matched with feather fisted fighters since the Garcia KO? Why? Are you at least willing to admit that?

 

Except Chin. We can say what we want about Algieri but that kid is tough.

 

TB is indeed mentally strong .

if he wasn't , he would've quit just like Alvarado did against Ruslan .

Bradley took serious punishment and never gave up and fought to a DRAW on my scorecard .

Of course everyone knows Khan is not going to stand in front of Ruslan .

Hes not suicidal , he actually enjoys life .

Doesn't matter how fast you are , any fighter no matter what style you put in front of Ruslan .

That fighter is going to get battered , Ruslan has a way of getting to any fighter . He will always be a nightmare match up for ANY opponent no matter how superior their boxing skills are .

IMO Khan will fall hard the sec Ruslan connects .

 

Maidana hits just as hard as Provo. Khan did just fine.

I think Provo swings at air all night.
Khan is looking very sharp these days

 

All you can do is assume Provodnikov KO's the 140lber version of Khan who lost 13 lbs a day before the weigh inn. We have yet to see a weakness in Khans chin at 147 a comfortable weigh class for him where he only had to lose 2lbs before the weigh inn and it showed. If Khan fought Provodnikov he would be the heavy favourite and rightly so. If khans chin is absolutely disasterous at 147 then sure Provodnikov can win by KO. But landing clean and getting close is easier said than done, if Alexander and Collazo couldn't i doubt a flat footed midget t rex armed provodnikov could easier. Like I said Algieri has already shown he can be easily outboxed from the outside and we all know Khan is in a different league to Algieri.

 

Well if you believe prov can land 1 shot in 12 rounds then you have your answer.

 

When I mean mentally weak I mean he lets peoples opinions of him being a feather fisted and boring headbutting fighter get in his mind and stop him carrying out a gameplan. He did it again vs Chaves. Appart from the first round vs Algieri did provodnikov win a single round vs Algieri?

 

it would be trhe death of Lil Amira... Although he is boxing much better he just takes too much punishment....

 

Feel free to bump it.

Its not like they're fighting any time soon.
They're in different divisions, and Khan has his eyes on bigger fish.

Maidana was a known puncher btw.

Even Judah had a high KO ratio at 140.
