    Freddy Roach was seriously contemplating pulling him out against Bradley because he was ''taking too many punches''. One of Matthysse's shots = 10 of Bradley's.

    Has Lucas chin been tested? Danny hasn't stopped anyone besides glass, and old guys or bums. Who has Molina really stopped? Bey? LOL, Prov hits harder than both, and even if you do consider these guys real punchers Lucas failed the test because he got dropped multiple times.

    It was tested tonight and stood the test. BS head butt by Matthysse early in the fight had a big impact.

    Told you guys his chin was solid. People keep talking about Bradley and Herrera. Provodnikov's defense isn't great, but his chin is pure iron. He had Matthysse in survival mode in the 11th and 12th.
