Comments Thread For: Dmitry Pirog Hopes Martirosyan Fight Will Land on ESPN

[ShoulderRoll]

I'm glad to hear that he will seek a knowledgeable American trainer. It's a sign of respect and shows he's still willing to learn.

why is pirog ducking martinez?

ohhhhhhh...Gennady Martirosyan...i thought it was Vanes

What a tease, right?

Crazy that he isn't back on HBO. He holds a belt, is one of the more anticipated opponents for boxing fans to face Sergio Martinez, and when he was last on HBO scored a big KO.

Pirog can train in the usa and still fight where he makes the most money, he needs to get plugged with the right people here.

damn, i thought it was vanes...oh well, hopefully he gets back in the ring against a worthy opponent. He should be on HBO fighting as the undercard to one of the big cards they end up showing on BAD or WCB. Hopefully he puts on a great performance on ESPN and then HBO will want him, even though he is already worthy of being on HBO right now.

I don't know why know why HBO doesn't give this some time on the air. He had a spectacular fight with Danny Jacobs. He's a pretty good fighter. Even though he is relatively unknown, he's more entertaining than some of the other fighters that they air.

gotta respect this guy hes a class act

[paulf]

It's not Vanes?

Some bull****. Pirog is wasting what time he has left. If he wants to blow up like Martinez he just needs to pack his bags, move to LA or Vegas, and start fighting as much as possible.
