    Ruslan Provodnikov will meet Lucas Matthysse in Los Angeles on March 28.

    Sources close to the situation informed Sherdog.com of the bout on Friday. The fight will likely take place at the StubHub Center in Carson, Calif., but an official venue has not yet been determined.

    Provodnikov, 31, (24-3, 17 KOs) has bounced back from losses against Timothy Bradley Jr. and Chris Algieri by defeating Mike Alvarado and Jose Luis Castillo. Earlier this week a report from ESPN.com noted that the Russian was awaiting a potential bout with Manny Pacquiao, but the deal did not come to fruition.

    Matthysse, 32, (36-3, 34 KOs) has won two consecutive bouts since dropping a unanimous decision to Danny Garcia. The Argentinian has since knocked out both John Molina and Roberto Ortiz. Matthysse’s bout with Molina is widely regarded as one of the best of 2014.

    WOW! Just WOW. Who needs Pac v Money? Yeah, two sluggers who can bang...this is where it's at. This will have more excitement for however long it lasts than any of the other fights due to happen this year.

    Matthysse should take it due to his ability to box and bang....... but there will be blood.

    John Molina moving up in weight and the (largely) unknown dude he KO'd early with the body shot?

    You call that "taking on the best?!?!"

    You are a joke of a poster. Your agenda bleeds through what you say. No consistency ever beyond predictable bias.

    Matthysse's results in 2014 were clearly better than Garcia's.

    But that isn't what you said.

    You said that ever since Garcia beat Matthysse, Matthysse has been "taking on the best."

    I was just pointing out that your standards are mighty low all of a sudden.
