    Okay, I've been looking everywhere, but I can't find their latest fight night weights. Anyone know their last fight night weight? Might be important because I want to know which is the bigger fighter for when they match-up.

    The only one I found was that Provodnikov was 148 against Alvarado from Basement Gym.

    I feel that Provodnikov is the bigger of the two, but I just can't find their weights anywhere.

    I don't know what Lucas weighed for his last fight but he was 153 in the Dallas Jr. fight, 151 for Judah, 149 for Olusegun, 153 for Alexander, and 157 for Molina (I can't remember what he weighed against Danny Garcia). I think those weights are correct but I'm not totally sure if they all are.

    Provodnikov was 148 for the Bradley fight, Bradley was 157.

    Mathysse is bigger and probably a better technical fighter. Provo is a better inside fighter. It's a 50/50 fight imo.

    Provodnikov just looks bigger to my eyes, but I can't really find fight night weights for Matthysse/Ortiz and Provodnikov/Castillo.

    Great post. Holy ****, Matthysse is way bigger than Provodnikov then. I always thought Provodnikov was bigger for some reason.

    I think they're about the same height, though, 5' 6".

    I think it's finally sinking in to Provos team MATTHYSSE might not be such a good idea after all lol

    I've been watching footage, I don't know about weights but Provodnikov is visibly bigger.

    Provodnikov is more like 5'4" than 5'6". Look at him with Pac and him with Bradley, he is shorter than both.

    That might explain why Provodnikov is lighter than he looks, because I agree he looks very stocky while someone like Matthyse looks more average build.
