    Who is really the most avoided fighter? Dmitry Pirog? Amir Khan?
    There is no such thing as most avoided... it is all perception... I mean I don't care who you want to call avoided all of these guys fight and get their matches... probably not the ones who they want... but everybody got their matches - as Paul Williams was so avoided he still got matches and had enough ppl who wanted to fight him and and and... doesn't matter who you name... Pirog and Khan also have enough ppl who would love to fight them...

      Golovkin has tried to make fights with N'Jikam and Sturm - in fact, he's Sturm's mandatory and N'Jikam is his mandatory.

      But Golovkin has never tried to make a fight with Pirog, as far as I know. He likely wants to get the WBA mess clarified first.
      Why doesn't Pirog try to make a fight with Golovkin? I see no reason why it couldn't be made. Why is he calling the one guy he knows he's not going to get? There are other top 10 middleweights and he hasn't called out any one of them. At least Sergio has tried getting fights with at least 6 out of the other top 10 middleweights. While Pirog is trying to get a shortcut to the top without ever doing squat ****. One of these days I would love to see "Comments Thread For: Pirog Shreds Rubio and Gaele: "Fight me you *****"

      Pirog needs to face reality and move on. Dibella already said Pirog will be more likely to get a shot at Martinez if he fights a top contender. Is that so much to ask? Pirog has no case to be in a position to be "ducked" by Martinez. He has yet to fight anyone worthwhile. And I don't give a **** that Martinez fought Barker. Beggars can't be choosers.

                    That "most avoided" bull**** is something promoters use to hype their fighters and dumb boxing fans eat that **** up.
