He isn't a top caliber fighter, but, he is an exciting fighter because his fights are always a brawl. His defense is horrible, but, it just makes exciting boxing. I always try to catch his fights when I can. I believe his last fight was a very entertaining fight. He was close to being stopped and came back and knocked out his opponent.
How is he going to do against Provodnikov on Friday? Will he go the distance or get stopped? Ruslan doesn't strike me as a devastating puncher but if Popoca has a tendancy to fight with his face it could be an early night for him.
