Fans and pundits have questioned the legitimacy of Castillo’s return, as he will fight for the 77th time when he takes on “Siberian Rocky”. Provodnikov has been more active, is younger and is perceived to have more power than Castillo. Not only that, “El Terrible” has lost to some real bums lately.
Nonetheless, the seemingly mismatched pairing will go down tomorrow, on the homesoil for Provodnikov of Moscow, Russia. The fighters weighed in today, and here are the Provodnikov vs Castillo weigh ins results:
Ruslan Provodnikov 146.6 vs Jose Castillo 146.2
Mickey Rourke 179.6 vs Elliot Seymour 179.6
Dimitry Kudryashov 199.1 vs Juan Carlos Gomez 203.7 (overweight)
Rakkhim Chakhkiev 199.3 vs Jackson Junior 183.9
Andrey Klimov 129.85 vs Gabino Cota 129.4
