Originally posted by DempseyRollin View Posthes better than mrtirosyan. and thats moot anyways. because if ur claiming ur entitled to fight the best fighter in the division, which sergio unanimously is, u should not be fighting fighters on gennady's level, esp when there are better fights out there. sergio is a proven commodity. pirog has yet to prove anything of note.

Dmitry Pirog has a better chance of getting a big fight on HBO now that the Slav-hater Ross Greenburg is gone.
I have a feeling he'll be in a unification fight soon, that's what he wants.

Originally posted by DempseyRollin View Postso??? hes also 30 yrs old. hes also claiming hes ready for a mega fight with sergio martinez. pirog is not a prospect. catch up kid. dont boxrec.
Matinez is 36, Vitali is 40 and Hopkins is 46.
Age is just a number nowadays.

Just to clarify, im not saying Pirog cherry picked this guy. Im just saying his opponent was basically a tomato can. Its not gonna tell us anything about Pirog.
Pirog hasnt got many options. HBO didnt bother to get behind him after he KOed Jacobs. They didnt even do a post fight interview.

Also Zbik,Macklin or Rubio wouldn't be a bad option if he wants to build his name and work through the rankings.
