Ruslan Provodnikov wasn’t surprised Timothy Bradley bounced back from their brutal battle to beat Juan Manuel Marquez.
The only thing that caught Provodnikov off guard Saturday night was that one of the three judges of the Bradley-Marquez fight scored it for Marquez. Glenn Feldman scored Marquez a 115-113 winner, but Bradley won a split decision at UNLV’s Thomas & Mack Center and retained his WBO welterweight title because Patricia Morse Jarman (116-112) and Robert Hoyle (115-113) scored the 12-round fight for him.
“I was surprised that one of the judges gave it to Marquez,” Provodnikov said while promoting his fight against Mike Alvarado. “Compared to my fight [against Bradley], I was just a little bit surprised. … Every time [your hear about] the judges’ scorecards out there, you get more and more shocked. I can’t tell what fight they were watching.”
