Jirov says he will fight at HW and be a champ

[bert988]

he wasnt even that impressive at cruiser. If he stays at heavyweight he will be the type of fighter that ends up being on the "fighters to watch" list. I am talkin about the new legislation that they are trying to pass that would make a new commitee that would review boxers that are either aging or taking to many shots,or wars, etc.... He would get knocked around by most of the heavyweights. After like two more of those fights the commitee would step in a force him to retire. Holyfield would actually be the first one on the list. But jirov will make that list if he stays at HW. I bet his next fight will be Audley Harrison.

jirov is senil..completely in denial

I remember before Jirov fought Moorer how so many people thought he was going to to make noise in the division, there were alot of BS posters making Jirov out to be a serious HW contender...where are all of you now?

I don't think we should classify Nautilus as "so many people"

Jirov was a volume-punching bruiser at cruiserweight.
He didn' beat his foes with speed, skills, or even, punching power.

Now, he's going up against bigger, stronger, & harder-punching guys than what he faced at cruiser.

Basically, he is facing his doom.

I think he has skills... He was acknowledged as the most skillful boxer at the Olympics held in Atlanta in 1996.

In cruisers he could afford to miss punches and he could also KO people via body punches. In HWs he needs to box more and he should miss less. I also do not think he can KO good HWs with body punches.

Jirov is obviously too small to compete at heavyweight - I don't understand why he doesn't move back down to cruiser - particularly when the limit has been extended.

Skillful, as an amateur. As a pro, he's been very, very hittable. Eveen in his title-winning fight with Arthur Williams...he was taking a lot of big, flush punches.
