Amir Khan vs. Ruslan Provodnikov Nov 7th

People keep talking about it but i dont see it.
Khan is fast enough to frustrate provo but his relentless pressure will get to khan who slows from about round 5 on and stop khan

 

Big bálls on Khan if true. This fight goes one of two ways; Khan gets on his bike for 12 rounds, uses his height and reach advantage to keep Provodnikov at bay, peppering his face with jabs and combinations all night to win a landslide UD. Or all that but Provodnikov catches him on his chin and finishes him.

 

It will only take one from Ruslan.

 

This is what I think happens, then his usual set of haters criticize Khan for having a smart game plan and not going out there and trying to fight Provo like Brandon Rios would.

I don't think Provo's one punch power is all that and generally beats opponents into submission but I doubt he will catch Khan often enough.

 

We all said it'd either be a feather-fisted WW or a JWW.

Absolute disgrace. He's the biggest con man in the sport.

 

people are only saying this is a good fight because khan has no chin

 

So not a WW. A fighter who has lost 3 from his last 5.

It's all so predictable.

 

"My kind"? Who is that exactly you abhorrent racist?

 

I hope Khan is not stupid enough to fight Provodnikov, it's simply the wrong fight, he could win, but it is such a very dangerous fight for anyone, esp. Khan..................

 

The melody Provodnokiv will make on Khan's chin is worth the price of PPV...and even better for free.

If Khan uses the jab and stays out of range, he should get a decision. But, it just takes one to get him all woozy. And unlike Maidana...Ruslan will finish the job.

 

So another LWW

If this happens Khan should be destroyed by his own fans, after two years of telling anybody who listened he would beat Mayweather and even Pacquiao he has to serve up somebody better than the ridiculously limited Provodnikov.

another LWW being talked about and Khan fans are OK with it? :rofl

It's GAME OVER if this happens, Khan can't be defended any longer.

 

:good Spot On

 

If the fight happens at LWW then I don't see that as really being a problem at all. I suspect if it does go we might get a catchweight of some kind.

Ruslan has lost 3 in 5 but to good company. He's the type to always give you a difficult 12 rounds no matter hwo you are. When he fought Lucas M it was Lucas' legs that came closest to giving way...

Anyway, if at LWW then I think this is actually a decent fight considering Khan's latest few fights have been against weak punchers. If at WW then that kind of sucks because Ruslan is too small
