    I am a bit more of a skeptic; I'd like to see two or three more fights.

    IMO Martinez is better.

    Williams might have trouble with his style, but I think he can get the job done.
    I've already expressed that Williams has to dig deep and get focused, he needs to seriously work out his flaws and execute an effective fight plan.
    If he does that, he will do well against Pirog.
    of course martinez is better he proved that already by fighting. williams is better aswell. this pirog dude hasnt done anyhting yet and its funny how all of a sudden after one win he's being compared to top mwwights. i can already feel that hes got great potential of becoming a serious hypejob

        He'd beat both Paul Williams and Martinez, dead serious.

          But he also has only 17 fights and his career defining win is over a garbage prospect named Danny Jacobs. never thought Jacobs was good before the Pirog fight and now that hasnt canged. Jacobs isnt a good fighter IMO.


          It was Danny Jacobs for Goodness sake. Lets all slow down here.
          I think your way off base about Jacobs, he is a good fighter and the only reason you or anyone is saying he isn't is because he just lost a fight.

              Yes hes a stud. Yes he has talent for days. Yes he has a weird confusing style. Yes he can punch.

              But he also has only 17 fights and his career defining win is over a garbage prospect named Danny Jacobs. never thought Jacobs was good before the Pirog fight and now that hasnt canged. Jacobs isnt a good fighter IMO.

              There is a reason I picked Pirog to beat him and collected e-points (lol) from several posters. Pirog is good. I knew that BEFORE he fought Jacobs.

              But the talk of him beating Martinez, Williams, Pavlik, Ward, Dirrell etc. Is way too damn early.

              It was Danny Jacobs for Goodness sake. Lets all slow down here.
              I agree with you, there are too many people on here jumping on the bandwagon. I have looked at his resume and apart from Jacobs all he has fought is a bunch of eastern European scrubs. Both Williams and Martinez expose him in my opinion.

                Wouldnt be surprised if he faces Jacobs again down the line.

                I would like his next fight to be Williams and depending on who wins that they face Martinez.

                  Martinez said several times that ws the toughest fight of his career. People act like Williams bring NOTHING to the table for opponents.

                  Let them keep being DUMB and sleep on Paul Williams. The man is a proven bad ass and has defeated other proven badasses!

                  Pirog looks PROMISING, but he's highly unproven and he's not perfect. For one he has mental lapses during the bout and keeps his hands dangerously low (that's exactly the lapse Jacobs had and Pirog made him pay).

                  Lets see what his chin looks like. Lets see what his recuperative abilities look like.

                  People that talk **** about Paul Williams don't understand how good you have to be to reach the level Paul Williams has reached.

                  You don't beat Margarito and Martinez by being a BUM with no defense. LOL!
