I can't wait for this fight. The most interesting fight on the card imo.
I got Danny Jacobs winning a decision.

Regardless, Korobov is obviously legit and that is the reason he has already been shown on American shows and has been talked about for a while. Pirog on the other hand as far as I know has never been on American television and has little buzz compared to Korobov. You know when you have a can't miss prospect and just a prospect. Jacobs will win the fight tomorrow.
Golovkin, someone you'll say is a bum because you've never heard of him, is better than either Korobov or Pirog.

Back to the fight tomorrow, I still think Jacobs is going to win. Jacobs is a really good fighter and has the skills to be very good. You have to keep in mind that the video against Korobov was pretty much a man versus a boy. Danny was only 18 and Korobov was 22.

If the fight were in a neutral location and all other things were equal, I would bet on Pirog. But because it's on a Golden Boy card in the USA, I've bet on Jacobs.

Golovkin is the man too!
