So Bradley is dragging a mediocre 140lb fighter up to WW?

this medicore fighter will be very hard to handle for bradley just watch... i am shocked that most guys here just look at the record and the raiting and not at the skills of the fighter.
just watch the fight! wont be that easy for bradley.

 

This will be a very tough fight for Bradley...
It will be filled with head clashes & Provodnikov will actually be the bigger man in the ring.
(I hope HBO does day of fight weight comparisons.)

Lets see how Timmy looks after the Pac debacle & time off.
(JMM will be in the house taking notes)

 

Khan/Diaz is a horrible fight. This is a decent fight. Could be better but with promotional incest going on, it's not that bad.

 

Its not like Provo was his choice.

Hes just fighting whoever they put in front of him.

Its better than stay inactive.

 

Khan does/did the same thing. It is disgraceful.

 

This Provodnikov is one though fighter with very strong power and some good skills (can punch many different punches, uppercut bodyshot etc.)
This wont be easy at all!

 

esb logic:nut

 

Not a big follower of Bradley, but would a move to law be out of the question?

 

Lww*

Or has he just totally outgrown it? He does look like a beast of a short man.

 

Bradley could make 140(was only 147 in the ring vs Pac), but why bother? Only Rios is at 140 for him, and he's already a champ at 147. Just milk the belt til the big fights happen.

 

Disagree. There's literally nothing going on at 147. 140 seems to be where it's at. There's Rios, Garcia, Khan, Matthyse. Unless of course he wants to unify with Paulie/Broner winner or Alexander/Brook winner.

 

Top Rank vs Golden Boy... Those fights will never be made.

 

The opponent may be outmatched but at least he's STYLISTICALLY a great opponent to showcase Bradley's talent

Look at it this way, is freakin on FREE TV... What r u complaining about

 

The day Bradley's contract with TR end will be a great day.

 

Its not a bad fight, Bradley should be a solid favorite but it should be a fun but one-sided kind of match.

There probably aren't many options here that would have been better. JMM and Rios would have been good fights but I don't know if they could have happened on this date. Berto would have been a really good fight and a better option but I guess Providnikov is pretty comparable to any other realistic option.
