        I just rewatched Danny vs Ishe today, it's on Dmotion for anyone who wants to see it and I think Ishe definitely gave Danny some trouble and hit him with some good shots. DJ never seemed hurt but he does have some things to work on. I just think he will outwork Pirog. He throws a ****load of punches per round and he could build a wide lead if Pirog doesn't step up his output or land some good counters. Still think DJ wins with Pirog coming on in the later rounds in a close close bout.

          Against Ishe he never sat on any of his punches. He boxed the entire way and threw a ton. If he had sat down and tried to really hurt Ishe he would have done some more damage but maybe have been caught with harder shots.

            Pirog has a very high workrate, and throws more punches than Jacobs.

            I think Jacobs is a harder puncher though, although an accumulation of Pirog's precise shots have stopped 80% of his opponents.

              That's what may happen.

              Dmitry looked good at the presser, so maybe he's adjusting to the time zone change. If so, he'll do well in the fight. But even if he deserves to win a decision, the judges may not be fair to him.

                    I will be going for my boy Jacobs but I really like what I see or seen from Pirog I wouldn't be shocked if he pulls it out, I think he will slip a lot of Jacobs punches early in the fight, but I am looking forward to this fight just as much if not more then JMM vs Diaz
