I found Pirog's style pleasing to watch.

I wouldn't say he's basic, I think his style is complex and very difficult to figure out.

I want to jump on the badwagon but already some idiots are calling him the next great thing, which is a huge turn off.

I'll look forward to his next fight though for sure, but I'm not going to sit here and say he can beat so and so.

couldn't agree with you more, 2 say he's the truth is overkill at the moment but to deny Pirog has skills is ri****ulous... Pirog should defend the title against Fernando Guerrerro, that would be exciting. I hope he fights often and gets more TV time but something tells me he will be on showtime or espn next.

yeah, I was impressed with how calm and cool he was in the ring, he really did make the fight seem effortless for him. Adding to that it was his first time fighting in the US, on a big stage like that makes it even more impressive. He was even talkin trash or taunting jacobs in Russian a couple times in there. hehe not something you'd expect from a guy in his particular situation!

Once or twice Jacobs landed flush on Pirog and Pirog's responce was to smile from ear to ear, not the most encouraging thing lol

[Allucard]

Pirog's a great fighter i wanna see him again soon!

Or Andy Lee perhaps although i'm not sure if Stewart would be too enthusiastic about that.

Hes an awkward fighter, he almost looked goofy. He has some power though. Vicious right hand.

Guerrero would be a good fight, though now I think they are going to keep prospects away from Pirog.

He will probably get someone in the top 15 of the WBO's rankings now.

I think his first fight as champ will be against someone not too dangerous before he fights his mandatory there.

I thought him versus Gennady Golovkin would have been a good fight but Golovkin is going for an interim WBA title.

It still feels weird he is the WBO champ.

I mean man.

He switches stances well, has good power,he shoulder rolls and is slick, but he does that as a pressure fighter. he's not an easy fight for anyone.

[S H A R K B O Y]

Could this be the special fighter that an era stumbles upon every once and a while? Only time will tell.

One of the reasons why Pirog actually gets hit more then he should is that he keeps pressuring his opponents even if they are technically faster then him. No amount of slickness in the world will save you from punches of a good pro, if you keep coming at him.
