DiBella - "**** Dmitry Pirog"

[Khalid X]

So basically since..........

Nobody knows Pirog, N'Jikam, and Golovkin....Martinez shouldn't face them

Since they don't bring any money to the table, Martinez shouldn't face them

Since they haven't beaten anybody, Martinez shouldn't face them.

Why does this sound familiar and why were those guys getting bashed for saying this, yet Sergio gets a pass?

[BrooklynBomber]

moreover -- nobody but a tight circle of boxing fans knows Sergio either.

I'm almost positive Martinez is going to go after the Zbik-Chavez winner. I bet he wants to get his WBC strap back and the only to do that is to fight the winner of that fight.

I really don't have a problem with that either.

Put Pirog on HBO with another decent opponent and if he looks good and the fight is demand it will happen.

I think it comes down to his track record as of late. Guys are given passes when they take money fights or easy fights if they have solid resumes.

Martinez should fight Pirog and i hope HBO puts a nice little package together for him to do so, A lot of these posters who seem to be hiding their boyfriend havent or didnt even know who Pirog was until he KO a green Jacobs.

It would just add more pressure to all these fighters if Martinez destroy another green fighter who has less experience at the top, I say move back down and fight the contenders at 154 because none of the top fighters would fight him.

why is martinez ducking pirog?

[BigStereotype]

Ok guys, Pirog is an entertaining, unorthodox fighter with funny head movement. Sergio Martinez is the number two p4p fighter in the world. This would be an embarrassing wipeout for Pirog, and if you can't see that, get the **** off the forums.

NO they dont want that, Why? Because they have to protect their men. Pirog had no fight where we all saw him, Before then no one apart from his country men even knew much about him, But they are now throwing his name out because the hit is on their men.

[DoktorSleepless]

Martinez said he didn't want to fight Pirog because he wants to be p4p king and wants more name recognition. He said Pirog would be a huge step backwads in this point of his career. I agree.
