Hy is 'n baie swaar hitter, so ek gaan om te beweeg en boks hom en kyk wat die uitkoms is. I’m going to give this guy everything I’ve got. And I know he’s coming to fight too, so at the end of the fight, may the best man get their hand raised.
Taking on the red-hot Miller is not a job many heavyweights are hoping to get at the moment, but Guivas says the time is right for a challenge of this magnitude.
I’m at the part of my career where I need to step up,” he explained. “When they offered me the fight, I was already somewhat in shape, so I said let’s get in better shape and see what we can do. I think at this time I’m ready for it.
Guivas says he respects Miller’s power, but might have some openings to get a few things done. “Oor die jare, I’ve gotten smarter in the ring.

Guivas sê hy werk hard aan die Danger Vuur Gym in Topeka, voor en na werk elke dag, en doen dinge 'n bietjie anders om voor te berei vir Miller.
“Ek kry vroeg in die oggend en kry my run in en dan in aande na werk wat ek doen my boks en sparring. Ek beland doen 04:56 uur per dag van opleiding. Ek het nie 'n keuse, maar om dit te doen soos wat. In die verlede, Ek het een of twee sparring vennote vir 'n stryd gehad, en Ek sal gaan vyf of ses rondes met daai ou. Vir hierdie stryd, Ons het in vyf ouens en ek elke ronde te kry 'n nuwe een. En die ouens wat ek sparring met ouens wat op die volgende vlak of gereed om top-vegters word. Ek kry 'n vars voorkoms van verskillende ouens elke ronde.”
'N Goeie counterpuncher en 'n ordentlike bokser, Guivas sê 'n oorwinning volgende Vrydag sou alles verander.
“Ek dink klop Miller sal my beslis sit na die volgende vlak. Die man is top 10. As ek kan kry die wen Ek sal wees in die geld volgende keer. Ek het nie net veg vir die geld al. Ek is mal om te veg. Dis wat ek doen.”

Ruslan’s fight with Lucas Matthysse averaged 1.243 million viewers and peaked at an outstanding 1.380 million viewers for the clash, which is now a leading candidate for 2015 Stryd van die Jaar.

Philadelphia (April 20, 2015)— Die afgelope Saterdag nag, boxing fans witnessed a classic bout that saw Lucas Matthysse eek out a close majority decision over Roeslan Provodnikov in 'n 12 round -junior welterweight clash in front of a sold out crowd at Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, New York.
Die bout, which was televised by HBO Boxing After Dark, has already jumped to the head of the list for 2015 Stryd van die Jaar.
Much of the post fight talk has centered around the courage of Provodnikov, as he fought eleven of the twelve rounds with a severely cut left eye that was due to an accidental headbutt. With blood streaming down the left side of his face, and his eye closing, Provodnikov fought heroically to come back and hurt Matthysse several times during the bout, and in round eleven he landed a left hook that nearly sent Matthysse to the canvas.
Many at ringside, including The Bleacher Report, HBO’s Harold Lederman, Steve Kim of UCNlive.com, & Dan Rafael of ESPN.com, scored the bout even at 114-114.
I could not be any more proud of Ruslan, said Banner Promotions Promotions Artie Pelullo.
Saterdag night showed that he is the toughest and most compelling fighter in boxing. Saterdag se fight also solidified that Ruslan is the most television friendly fighter in the sport hands down, and there will be many more big fights for Ruslan in the near future.

Provodnikov came back later in the round with some solid combinations and landed some furious shots to Matthysse’s head. Matthysse had a nice bounce back round five as he landed some hard jabs to the face of an oncoming Provodnikov.

The war continued through the middle rounds as both fighters went toe to toe while Matthysse landed combinations from distance and Provodnikov went on the offensive and continued to brawl.

The two waged a final flurry in round twelve and it was Matthysse the former WBC champion won via majority decision with scores of 115-113 twee keer en 114-114.

I think I dominated the fight, I knew I had the best hits,” Sa'id Lucas Matthysse. “Ruslan is a tough fighter, he took everything I threw at him. Ek het 'n baie respek vir hom. There was a point when I thought that they would stop the fight because of Ruslan’s cut, but his team was able to control it. I hurt my hand in the sixth round, but I kept going because I wanted to prove that I am the best in the division and that I am ready for the toughest fighters. I want to move forward and fight the winner of Mayweather-Pacquiao.

I want thank everyone for being here and supporting this event, and I want to thank all who made this fight happen, Golden Boy Promotions, Banner Promotions and HBO.
I am glad Lucas and team are so sure of themselves because I am positive that once I am in the ring my actions will speak for themselves. I am here to win and I will do everything to win this fight.
I am positive that once I am in the ring, I am only there to win.
I know I am only there to win the fight. I will win the fight at any cost.

No one can stop my will, my will, will not be broken.

I fight for an idea, for myself, for the people and to make history. I am fighting one of the best fighters, and I feel like this will make history. I don’t do it for the fame or the money.

I met Bernard a long time ago and he told me: ‘make your own history,’ and I feel like I have been doing that.

This is going to make a great fight, the fans have waited long for, and let the best man win.

LUCAS MATTHYSSE, Former Interim WBC Super Lightweight World Champion:

I want to thank Oscar and Mario for making this fight happen. I want to thank Ruslan for accepting the fight. Ek is baie gelukkig.

We did a great job in training camp, and I am prepared and ready for Ruslan. I am going to give a great performance Saterdag.”

ARTIE PELULO, President van Banner Promotions:

This is going to be the best fight of the year.
I have had the good fortune to co-promote Corrales-Castillo I and this could be that.
It is great that two fighters in the prime of their career to be in the ring.

I have to thank my partners at Golden Boy Promotions, Oscar De La Hoya and Eric Gomez. It’s very rare and great that two fighters in their prime have decided to face each other in the ring.

I want to thank Turning Stone Resort Casino, they are a first class operation.
Both these fighters have gotten here fighting tough, top fighters. They want to fight the best just like Oscar and Bernard who are here today. Ruslan and Lucas believe that they are the best, they are fighting each other in their prime, something that is very rare in the sport.
Both of these men have gotten here by fighting very good guys.
OSCAR DE LA HOYA, President en stigter van Golden Boy Promotions:
It’s a pleasure to be working side by side with Banner Promotions and HBO, making this great fight, the fight that the fans want to watch.

When I was here at Turning Stone Resort Casino last year for the International Boxing Hall of Fame induction, I stood up and preached on how we should put aside our egos to make fights for the fans. This is the perfect example of what boxing can be when you have two great fighters face each other in the ring. Putting on the great fight is what Banner Promotions and Golden Boy Promotions is all about.

HBO is one of the best partners in the business, they are committed to putting on the best fights on television. When you watch HBO, you know it’s the best.

Mario is the top promoter in Argentina, a partner who understands our philosophy, and he trusts us. They have been instrumental to put on the best boxing in the last 10 jaar. We have to thank partners like him for our success.

Lucas is one of the best fighters to come out of Argentina. He has a great fighting spirit. He has the best combination of being a brawler and can also box and move when he wants to. This great combination makes him a boxer-puncher, which makes him fun to watch.

“Lucas’ record speaks for himself, with one of the best percentages of knockouts in the sport.

VADIM KORNILOV, Manager for Ruslan Provodnilkov:

I want to thank the whole team for making this fight happen.

Ruslan is ready for this fight, this is something he has been waiting for to show that be is the best in his weight class.
Oscar De La Hoya for saying that the winner of MatthysseProvodnikov should fight the winner of Mayweather -Pacaquio, Oscar that fighter will be Ruslan.
ANDREI NAPOLSKIKH, Co-manager for Ruslan Provodnikov:

This is one of the fights Ruslan has been waiting for,. That has caused a lot of motivation on our side and we are looking forward to a good fight on Saturday, April 18.
BERNARD HOPKINS, Toekomstige Hall van Famer en Golden Boy Promotions Partner:
We are here to make the best fights. The kinds of fights the fans want to see.

I want to address the media: you all get a chance to write about good fights, you follow them and you know who the fighters need to fight to be on the highest level. To be able to continue to put on the best fights, we need you to put pressure on us to continue to do strive to put on the fights the fans want to see.

“hier, you have two great warriors in Lucas and Ruslan. The fight was talked about and then it was done, and that is what boxing is all about. We want to start a good vibe in the boxing world.

Write something good about us.

MARIO ARANO, Manager to Lucas Matthysse:

We are very happy and thankful to be here. I want to thank HBO, Golden Boy Promotions and Banner Promotions for making this fight happen. I want to personally thank Artie Pelullo and Ruslan for accepting the fight.

Team Matthysse has done a great job in getting Lucas in the best shape for this fight. Lucas has worked really hard and is prepared to bring the best possible fight against Ruslan Saterdag.

Lucas belongs in the major leagues, en Saterdag he will show the world why.

I would like to thank Oscar, Golden Boy Promotions and Banner Promotions for the opportunity. For me it is an honor to be part of this.I also want to thank Freddie Roach for having us be part of his team. This is a big responsibility.

Both fighters arrived at Turning Stone Resort Casino today and took some time to do a photo-op at the hotel and answer a few questions about their training camp.

Below is what they had to say:


How do you feel about the fight and when did you begin training?

Lucas Matthysse: I have been training non-stop, way before the fight was officially announced. I have been doing a lot of sparring to improve my speed and make sure I make as much contact with my opponent as possible.

Roeslan Provodnikov: I am excited and motivated for this fight, I will not disappoint my fans and it will be a real war! Everything is going great with my training and will be ready for a really war in the ring.

How are you preparing to face each other?

Matthysse: Ruslan is a great fighter, he comes prepared for a war. My strategy against him will be to make sure to box and keep moving, that is why sparring has been really important in my training.

Provodnikov: I will be ready for whatever Matthysse does. Ek 100% percent believe that this fight will be the fight of the year. I always give everything I can in training camp and I’m very responsible. Ek niemand neem nie ligtelik, maar jou vraag te beantwoord: walking into the ring with a fighter that I know will fight back will definitely show that what I can do as a boxer than going up against a fighter who will just run.

What should fans expect to see on April 18?

Matthysse: Fans can expect one of the greatest fights in the division. I know I am ready to win this fight and fans should expect a victory.

Provodnikov: Ek belowe dit gaan die stryd julle almal wag vir wees.
