People are seriously overrating Ruslan! He's no better than Molina. For one, he does not punch as hard as people think. When was the last time he knocked out or knocked down a legit opponent? 2. He has no jab, head movement, or footwork and he only throws hooks. 3. Molina is 6 feet tall, Ruslan is 5'6. 4. Styles make fights. Molina is going to catch one of those hooks and shoot an overhand right that ends the night.
Could happen. Anyone can be knocked out, especially a fighter with porous defense against a huge puncher. Boxing's funny sometimes.
If anyone can clip and test Provodnikov's chin it's Molina. The thing is, Molina's defensive deficiencies are just as bad and his chin isn't as good. This is gonna be a rockem sockem fight.
Molina is definitely being underestimated here(talking to you oddsmakers!) But Provo should pull through here. Can't wait for this!
Imo Molina has been shot to pieces since he left Goosen. If he stayed with him, and didnt look like utter dog **** against Humberto the old man Soto I'd be worried since I put a lot of v cash on ruslan. He still has a punchers chance.
Think if he wins it'll be by hard fought decision. Really don't see him KO'ing Provo.He could definitely pull a fast one and box more than expected.
I just dont see Molina decisioning him unless he knocks him down and Provo is just in survival mode. Molina is seriously an awful boxer.
