weeeeeee Jirov is back to cruiserweight

[AintGottaClue]

well if u look at his loses

he lost a great fight with toney which coulda been a draw...


he almost killed and probally retired joe mesi


he made a mistake by getting up to fast agaisnt moorer.

i dont think he is a shot fighter at all just at a little down point in his career he will bounce back 1 day and i think make a name for himself.

Yeah, you maybe right, but it's better that he slipped up early in his career, (a time when he's still in a good position to make a comeback.) rather than late in his career..

Jirov hopefully will have learned from his mistakes in the moorer fight and just stick to boxing on the outside against bigger guys. ****** mistake by him to trade with Moorer that late when he had the fight in the bag

I'm glad Jirov is back down where he belongs. I really love his style because he is not afraid to get hit and that usually makes for action fights. It doesnt seem to be too effective at HW though. I think he'll be an excelent cruiser though and he has a damn good chance of being champ, IMO.

Well I don't see Jirov doing anything in the cruiserweight division anymore. Jirov is a shot fighter, that war with Toney took alot out of him and he has since lost two fights in the HW division.

Braithwaite is the man in the cruisers and he will hand Jirov his ass if they fight each other.

I disagree with your comment about Jirov being a shot fighter. I think he's still got legs and he's still young enough, like Wlad, to let these losses be a learning experience. I think, as well, that his fight with Mesi was damn near a victory, what with that incredible rally in the last two rounds.

[AintGottaClue]

he would rule light heavy and maybe get joe cal or maybe HOPKINS to fight him. o boy what a fight that would be hopkins vs jirov

[mic573]

There is no way Jirov could make light heavyweight. I think Jirov could beat both Mormeck and Braithewaite. They would both be great fights in my opinion.

[Kimmy]

I agree, Jirov could never make lightheavy. Where are people coming up with this idea for Jirov to be a lightheavyweight. i hope that this idea ends now cos there is not a chance in hell of Jirov making 175. Crusierweight, yes. i think Jirov best move is there and he should have some success too!

[abdiel2k3]

ya
seems like a good idea
but i also dont see him maken LHW
i had thought about it b4 too
but looken at his record
i just dont see him maken 175

I think Jirov can still fight...not at the level he once fought at but he'll always provide that entertainment value. He'd give us a spirited fight against Braithewaite before ultimately getting KO'd. Big Truck can hit with the best of em and has pretty good skills to set up his power. Jirov is like Morales in a way where he goes to war when he doesn't have to...ala Moorer fight.
