    Have You Lost Respect For Ruslan Provodikov & Keith Thurman Because Both Are Fighting 40 Year Old Opponents?

    Ruslan fighting 40 year old Castillo,
    then next month, Thurman fighting a 40 year old that many dont know about.

    That other thread is about Thurman only.

    This new thread includes Ruslan. Something that other thread didn't have.

    So, no. Its not spamming, moron.:!:

    Thurman should be fighting Ruslan, instead.

    Since both Top Rank & Golden Boy have become "friends", fights are being made amongst the 2 promotional companies.

    It's funny that both Ruslan & Thurma think of themselves as the most feared & most avoided fighters in their division, and here they are agreeing to fight 40 year olds.

    They could've fought better opposition. Arum & Oscar have the power to get them the better competition.

    I think these 2 fights are mismatches and a slap in the face to boxing. Now were going to be seeing more 40+ years old opponents from now on.

    Ruslan fights at 140.. and Thurman fights at 147. You know better than that man. Thurman would knock Ruslan out, he's just too big for him, unless Thurman drains himself at 140, only way Ruslan has a chance.

    Bundu's a decent enough opponent, Provodnikov has no excuse for digging up the remains of Castillo.

    Bundu is fairly well known by hardcore boxing fans as he's been around for a long time.


    Bundu is looking good and ready. Castillo is an old corpse with nothing left.


    Do some research on fighters before you start posting ****.

    No. Name me one fighter who is willing to get in the ring with provo or thurman. Khan ducked thurman cause he knew his glass jaw would get shattered. And chickenweather dont want nothing to do with thurman, floyd doing everything to pretend that thurman doesnt exist.

    They can tie fighters up and drag them to the ring.

    Provodnikov, yes.

    Thurman is facing a legit top 10 ranked welterweight who is good, so of course not.

    Provodnikov could have fought Abregu on HBO but turned it down.
