Prov is somewhat overrated now...yes. I will say this about him though...I give him a better chance against Swift than I did Matthysse. I think Matthysse is a better fighter overall but LM is not a relentless and fearless pressure fighter like Prov. LM tries to box more than he should :pachaha: I still think Swift would do Prov the same way but it would be a tough fight. Prov vs LM? :meh: I dont know. Great fight....if LM can take it he would win and stop Prov. He could actually ruin Prov. I dont know if LM can take it though...I havent seen him under that type of duress.

Alvarados struggle boxing was working against Prov....I have zero doubts Swift gives him that work N especially go to the body unlike that dumbass from Denver....I'd love to see that fight:smugbiden:

Prov got that wear you down thudding power....where Matthysse got that one punch you go sleep now power....if they fight itd be a stretcher match:banderas:

this is gonna be a good match. But how the hell is Rosado not ranked? I know he's coming off losses but Love was cheating and he looked good in all his fights, even against Golovkin in flashes.

i dont understand why rosado keeps taking fights at 160...he's too small for that weight...i expect quillin to stop him

2) Anybody praying on Floyd's downfall wouldn't ever get to see it because Floyd wont allow it. Floyd is like Kobe in the sense that he has too much pride to perform past his prime and that he would quit before he let us see that.
I agree with this except floyd is far better at boxing than kobe is at basketball. Do you got a link to this? shyt sounds interesting

its like this. JMM is a counter puncher. one of the best the game has ever seen. the thing is..that one thing that makes him great...makes him imbalanced and vulnerable. so when he is in the ring, he really doesnt feel like he is losing, he feels like he can beat the guy. so in his mind if he loses a fight he can get it right the next time. it doesnt work like that though, not against fighters with above average IQ. JMM always thinks he can make adjustments when the fact is...he is great at one thing but average or even below average at other things...like leading and cutting the ring off. he basically waits for you to fire so he can catch you with his counters and win by points or KO. he is a guy who feeds off his opponents aggressiveness. if you are only semi-aggressive...he gets frustrated. he thinks he can go to the tape and say "look, every time he does this he moves to the right". when they rematch, Bradley will have known that is JMM plan and just change that one lil movement and say take a half step back. then JMM will want a 3rd match...and a 4th match...get the picture?

that bothers me too he's clearly his best at 154 and he can even crack some at that weight. I could see this fight having a good ebb and flow and quillin pulling away after round 7 with a possible KO
