By Steve Kim
Sources with knowledge of the negotiations have advised BoxingScene that HBO will secure the mouth watering junior welterweight collision between Lucas Matthysse (36-3, 34KOs) and Ruslan Provodnikov (24-3, 17KOs). The target date is March 28th, The venue has yet to be finalized, with the StubHub Center in Carson and the MGM Grand in Las Vegas being considered.
HBO had a first and last on Provodnikov. However, up until today the actual network was up in the air because Showtime submitted a lucrative offer. HBO had until Friday to match the offer, which they did. i am looking forward to this clash
