Dmitry Pirog Daniel Jacobs KO! From Russia w/ Love

[Mutchie6g]

Pirogs tomahawk cruise missile !!!

right down the pipe...perfect right hand

Pirogs first cruise missile landed in the 2nd round but he survived but then in the 5th he was STRUCK DOWN BY A HEAT SEEKER = LIGHTS OUT !!!

Looks like he threw a bunch of duds right before that missle.

Brilliant fight from Pirog. But i wouldn't get too carried away, he's not ready for the elite of Middleweight yet aka Martinez and Williams. Not trying to take away anything from Pirog but Jacobs was definatley overhyped. If i were him i would gain more experience before challenging them, he only has 17 fights and it was a vacant belt that really should be owned by Sergio Martinez. Maybe he should have a look at fighting the other belt holders at 160 or Kelly Pavlik i think that would do him good.

But he certainly looks like a good fighter, i look forward to watching him fight again!

i thought jacobs was a lil overhyped he struggled against ishe

agreed.I saw him taking some bad shots from Ishe,who is good fighter but not world beater,and doesn't really have that much knock out power.and I knew that first good fighter with good power would put Jacobs on his ass and that's exactly what happened

[Alec900]

can't really understand why Jacobs was so heavy favorite in this fight.
is beating astorga,berrio,smith,walton and walker really bigger deal than beating melis,mitchell,jantuah,toygonbayev,ajetovic and kodzoev.what's the difference beating euro bums or beating yank bums?
