    More like theyre trying to hype a guy they know has no chance of winning.

    If they really respected him they wouldnt have pulled his corpse out of the morgue for Provodkinov to feast upon

    Castillo wasnt a risky fight to espn level fighters 2 years ago. This is not a good fight and definitely not a risky fight. Provo likely stops him within the first 4 rounds, hopefully after this we can get a relevant fight out of him, or at least entertaining. Rios, mattysee, Bradley, or Broner would fit the bill nicely.

    Morales never looked as bad as Castillo has looked for the last five years, he looked like the shell of a ghost against Antwon Smith, it was actually sad to watch, he's more shot than JuanMa

    Lets not compare Ruslan to Danny .

    Danny had options and could have faced a high caliber opponent if he wanted to , but settled for Salka .

    Ruslan on the other hand , No top fighters from 140-147 want anything to do with him .

    As you can see its perfectly understandable why everybody wants to stay the hell away from Provodnikov .

    Most likely it will , because nobody else wants to get into the ring with Ruslan .

    Either fight Castillo or stay inactive .

    The idea that no one wants to fight Provodnikov is utter bollocks. No one who can get fights on HBO in the US is willing to travel to Russia but there's a whole bunch of guys between that level and shot to **** Castillo.

    By this logic there's no reason to criticize any perceived mismatch ever, because, you know, anything could happen!

    What's funny about that? This is not a video game this is real life. JLC having to fight as shot as he is, that's not a laughing matter. He provided us with one of the best fights of this era with Corrales RIP. The man is probably already showing signs of brain damage and still in the ring trying to make a living. I hate to see any boxer have to hang on like this and it's sad but you somehow find humor in it sickening.
