    you're insinuating that Ruslan is better than Matthysse?

    people voting Ruslan for KO...

    based on what? Devons chin is grade A IRON. he straight up ate punches from Maidana, Bailey, and ESB's beloved Matthysse.

    that boy aint getting KO'd by a Ruslan.

    I think people maybe overestimating Ruslan he didn't get out of that fight untouched.

    Not by a single punch, I'd agree. Dev has stood firm against quite an impressive roster of big-time hitters. (the last three in a row have the ability on a give night to render damn near anyone unconscious at 140/147, and while maybe Bradley and Kotelnik don't have the starch in their shots to match their skills Dev had already been fire-tested before them by Corley & Urango).

    He doesn't want to dance Provodnikov's dance the way Bradley did, though - I can tell you that much.

    No, and Devon indeed has that monster uppercut that has in the past cracked hitherto dependable chins...but if Provodnikov brings the same intensity and has everything pulled together and firing on all cylinders like he did against Bradley, and if Alexander is even the least bit off his game, it could be a difficult evening.

    Alexander UD. He has the style to outbox Provodnikov and won't get into a war like Bradley did.

    Hate to say it but Alexander will win a boring ass holding, hitting and running decision
    he is one awkward ass fighter

    Provodnikov by murder!!! Provodnikov beat the crap out of Bradley, left Bradley on the canvas!!! Alexander has lost to Kotelnik, Matthysse and Porter.........

    :lol:Hmm..that was unfortunate. I woulda just zapped the thread and started again.

    Anyway yes, despite lasting the distance last night, I don't think he would against Ruslan. TKO10.
