    Pirog is a joke, believe that.

    And with that the Pirog hot air balloon begins to inflate. I love how certain fighters can look exciting against terrible talent and be called the next big thing. Yet, a guy that may not be as exciting(in this case he is more exciting) is fighting the very best and being called overrated, a ducker, or just not that good. There is a difference between fighting 20 year old prospects and fighting top P4P fighters in the world. Pirog is nothing, has never been anything and will continue to fight in high school gyms in Russia. Another Eastern European that is protected and yet to fight world caliper opponents but get hyped up like no tomorrow. People ***** about Americans being hyped, it's time to look in your own backyard. That's real talk.

    I laughed at people saying "oh, it's the next Roy Jones. Look how he fights, kid is cut from another cloth." GTFO, it's easy to look great against guys that you're overmatched. It's time to put up or shut up. I'm sick of people on here overrating fighters that haven't ever face a top fighter. Golovkin will probably be on that list next if he gets some brass and steps up to the plate.

      I think "a joke" is a bit harsh. He's a young prospect who has yet to face world class opposition. He's overhyped by some (those who hate on Martinez for no apparent reason) but overall I wouldn't say he's overhyped. He is what he is, and he needs to face some better opposition.

        ok for one, no one said he's the next roy jones.

        two, he won the fight pretty easily against a guy who was covering up the entire night and rarely wanted to open up. it's hard to look stellar against a guy who's just content going the distance.

        not everyone can look amazingly awesome every single fight. even pac has had a couple of stinkers.

              Naw, Jacobs was just a kid. Pirog may still be inexperienced but the dude is almost as old as Manny Pacquaio or Floyd Mayweather. I don't go crazy for prospects like a lot of these fan boys/nationalistic guys do. I let the talking happen in the ring and so far Pirog has yet to beat a top 15 fighter in his division. Guy hasn't shown me anything except he can look good against kids and average today. He certainly won't beat Martinez and certainly doesn't deserve that paper belt he is sporting around.

                  How long did it take for Roy Jones to step up in competition?
