Nice body shots by Chris.

like I said in an earlier post, I actually liked what I saw in algieri on some FNF matches. If he can keep up doing what he is doing now, he has a chance despite the first round.

 

[Jello Biafra]

Provodnikov has decided Algieri can't hurt him and is getting sloppy with his defense.

Theres some older boxers and recently retired boxers id get in the ring with if the price was right...with that being said Ruslan is not one of them. I wouldnt throw hands with this guy for any amount of money

 

[patscorpio]

algieri's eye is getting worse

 

[Jello Biafra]

I honestly can't remember what Gamboa looked like in his last fight to even have a good frame of reference to make a prediction for that Crawford fight.

 

[torcher]

Ruslan is boxing more then I thought he would

 

[FreedMind]

that eye

I'd get in there with ruslan if the price was right...and then take a dive at 2:59 of the 1st round.

He boxed beautifully that round. His jab has Ruslan resetting his offense.

 

[torcher]

I'm not big on Roy either but dam Andre Ward is awful

looks like algieri is doing the body work

is it the teddy atlas "getting those knockdowns were the worst thing to happen in the first round, because the fighter starts to headhunt & look for the KO" thing, which is Atlas' favorite rant to do every fukking time someone gets an early knockdown?

if Prov goes to the body, he makes this an easier fight

 

[Spree At Last]

algieri doin pretty impressive for a dude with one eye

 

[ChocolateGiddyUp]

Algieri needs to clinch when on the ropes...Prov doesn't fight it N doesn't throw once clinched

HBO clearly building up Algieri so they can show him again.
