Comments Thread For: Lara Challenges Pirog: I'll Whoop Your Ass in Russia!

LOL.

Damn, that Jacob fight really did a lot for the Pirog legend. He's gonna beat a guy like Lara in a one-sided fight? Lara outboxes him IMO. You can't try that hands-down shit on experienced boxers who have seen all sorts of styles in 100s of amateur fights, especially a southpaw.

you mean like it never worked for sergio against dizzy?

This should happen before either fights Martinez. Pirog has been impressive but I'd really like to see him put an exclamation mark on his pursuit of the middleweight title by taking out a high level operator such as Lara.

Lara of course is in a need of a marquee win, so this would be a big fight for both men.

YEESSSSS. This is a great a fight. Lara is the #1 ducked fighter of the world. If Pirog beats him, he'll definitely be in a position to make a Martinez fight happen.

" be in a position " ?

The kid has never fought a top 10 opponent, and Lara is a JMW.

It is fkn absurd that Pirog is calling out Martinez, but even more absurd that some of the mindless fanboys who frequent this site are calling Sergio a coward for not rolling over for a green kid and fighting in some barn in Russia.

Lara is exactly who Pirog should be fighting.

It is absurd that Lara has faced better opposition that a green kid who is calling out the genuine MW king. I laugh my head off on this site some-days.

Oh no you won't.

Pirog beats you in a one-sided UD.

But I like the moxie on Lara.

I'm not so sure about that.

The point is, there is absolutely nothing to base that on, Lara has fought and beat better opposition than Pirog has, which is why the fight should happen.

not at mw, but yes, this fight should happen, pirog shouldn't get sergio necessarily...

although there really aren't that many mw's that really qualify for sergio except sturm, and well, you know how that story ends. probably with a rematch with randy griffin.

seriously, how much more ready is geale? do you really think andy lee has a better shot? golovkin= green, ndjam or whatever= green, pirog= green, rubio=joke. the list goes on and on at 160

Pirog will duck Lara.

You fkn bet he will, no way Pirog takes that fight.

He is being cashed out imho, which is why he will not fight a top 10 contender.

props for lara, and u dunno why ppl think itll be an easy fight for pirog...it wont. he may win but it wont be easy. lara will have been the best fighter hes ever fought.

I cant for the life of me figure that one out ?

When did Pirog " earn his stripes " ?

When did he graduate ?

What have I missed ?

That is a pick-em fight imho, and it could be a cracker.

Martinez is streaks ahead of both.

[LeadUppercut]

Nope, Lara got a gift against Molina.

Thats was a real close fight man.

The Americans said Daniel Jacobs is a "Future P4P King" and they put him in the fight night champion video game.

Pirog DESTROYED Jacobs on HBO in America.

99.9999999 percent of Americans never heard of Jacobs. Pirog either. I am sure you enjoy his poster over your bed, though, huh?

The road goes both ways, Mr Pirog.

Pirog wants to fight a legit name contender; Lara is hot right now and everyone is afraid of him. Sound familiar? This is a great fight to make.

Let's see if Pirog backs up all the **** he's talking about fighters being afraid of him

Exactly !!

I would favor Pirog, because he is likely more comfortable at the weight, but that fight is no gimme, be interesting to see if he backs up his mouth.

Let us add the typical anti-Martinez methodology to this equation.....

* Even though you are the champ, you HAVE to accept the challenge from a green kid to fight in a hay-barn in Russia, otherwise you are nothing but a coward

Damn Pirog, it looks like Lara is your next opponent, unless you are happy being labeled a ducking b1tch who just wants a payday?

Lets get it on
