Comments Thread For: Dmitry Pirog-Daniel Jacobs in Talks For July 31 PPV?

Pirog has mad skills though. Oh man, this is gonna be a good one.

Very true bro this should be one hell of a fight though. Like Jones-Hopkins in that later on in their careers these guys could be great great fighters. My mouth waters at the prospect.

Pirog was actually one of the guys I didn't want to see Fernando Guerrero face; I'm ashamed to say. He knows exactly how to put himself in a comfortable postion. He'll go inside, move his head/ upper body and literally LITTERALLY find any openings, he's that good. Even if he were to lose to Jacobs, I can see him improving. So I agree with the whole Roy BHop-type thing.

Jacobs got this one, easy.

Wow what a fight!!!


On July 31st as well??

JMM-Diaz
Khan-Casamayor
Linares-Juarez
Jacobs-Pirog


WTF???

Wasn't thrilled to see this rematch on PPV, but GBP is putting together a really good undercard. Might actually buy it, besides JMM and Diaz is probably gonna be another war with a KO(Marquez winning).

Would love to see Andy lee in with Fernando guerreo for the soon to be vacant full NABO title.........

If the Pirog vs Jacobs fight happens, I'll be thrilled. Pirog is my favourite fighter, because he displays what the sweet science should be all about. Great skill set! He beat tough Russian guys that are not known to the casual fan, but luckily almost all his fights are on youtube. If the doubters will take some time, they will be surprised on what an amazing fighter Pirog is.

However, I think the fight against Jacobs is a toss up, because Jacobs has fast hands, legs and a gorgeous amateur background. Can't wait for July 31.

Jacobs handspeed never struck me as anything special. It good but nothing exceptional.

[Steelhammer2011]

Pirog will win.

Jacobs is nothing special, he struggled against gatekeeper Ishe Smith.

Pirog's impressive dominant shutout over Kofi Jantuah is better than anything on Jacobs' resume.

Here's a video of my favorite Jacobs fight:

I have't seen enough of Lee, can't remember the last time I've actually seen him. Also for some weird and strange reason, I seem to get Lee and Duddy confused, I honestly don't know why. I'm gonna see how Andy Lee is doing, gonna check Youtube later today or tomorrow.
