    Does the Tiger Still Have Claws? The Return of Jirov

    By Cliff Rold - Some fighters are remembered and celebrated by the world. Some belong almost solely to the hardcore fight fans. It is in the latter category where former IBF Cruiserweight titlist Vasily Jirov (37-3-1, 31 KO) made his memories. At 35, he appears set to try and make a few more. [details]

              Dude lost to Mesi, got KO'd by Moorer, and couldn't beat Norris post Toney. I think he's done.

                No

                He has been declawed, like a house cat. He should fight Montey Barrett, there both extremely shot fighters, Yesterdays news.

                  Jirov was never built to be a heavyweight, if he has anything left an Adamek-Jirov fight would be FOTY material.

                    he was starting to dominate mesi but ran out of rounds.he knocked him down 3 times in the 9& 10th.if it goes 12 he beats mesi,he was dominating moorer when he got caught in the 9th like he'd never been hit before but I never saw the Norris fight.give him a chance to see what he has left.his body attacking leaves him open vs big punching heavyweights.he got caught by moorer that's all.
