    As much as I love Provonikov, Rios would KO Ruslan. Provonikov doesn't have much defense and Rios has a great chin, way better than Alvarado.

    Pick em fight, I feel like Rios pressure could get to Provodnikov, but I feel like Provodnikov can hurt Rios as Alvarado was clearly able to do in the second fight. Just depends on which one comes first... Should be a great fight

    Rios sucks. Can't box to save his life.

    Might fight provo once Pac destroys him.

    Provo hits harder than Rios, and is stronger.

    Rios takes a better shot, better defense, and a better inside fighter.

    Alvarado stopped Rios in his tracks. Couldn't stop Provo. I think Provo kills him, hes too easy to hit.

    Would be a brutal fight that's for sure, both are a mirror image of each other, Ruslan probably hits a little bit harder, both guys have great chins and both are relentless, Rios is training with Ariza now who is probably the best in the business, so his fitness will probably be better than it's ever been.

    I give the slight edge to Rios but this is a pick em fight.
