    Honestly, Mike seems like a super nice guy, but I dunno if hes weary around cameras, or punch drunk, but he doesnt sound "OK" when he talks.

    Ruslan had a persona that looked intimidating. Both Ruslan and Mike are decent people so you didn't get an intense faceoff, these face off's these days have gone soft, you have to go back to Cotto-Margarito II, Hopkins Pascal II to get them intense face offs.

    I agree Ruslan has the intimidating look but the faceoff still was very boring. U forgot about wlad-haye faceoff which that was a better face off then there actually fight.

    Ruslan made a good point the one who has the stronger will is going to win.
    Neither guy is a boxer very much so it seems like a war is brewing and Ruslan will win a great fight while it lasts!!
    Can't wait should be FOTY stuff.

    Russians are probably the top power punchers today. Muhammad Ali made power punchers disappear because everyone started dancing and moving after that. But since tyson and duran cleaned out all the dancers people wanted to be swarmers again. Provodnikov got real close to bradley and I don't think alvardo going to beat him. Provodnikov is a ttough guy, solid puncher. He'd beat most guys around today.

    Kind of weird without translation. They should have had an actual translator. Going straight to the reaction of Mike and Max looked like they understood the whole thing lol

    It looked like they all had ear pieces in that was giving real time translation, ala like in U.N meetings.

    Ruslan is a beast, Mike will get beaten to a bloody pulp if he tries to go toe to toe with him

    There wasn't the usually trash talking but Ruslan impressed me with his quiet confidence, his focus and his understanding of what he represents to the Mansi people.
