    Dmitry pirog's success

    I for one am a fan. He has skills, can box outside, fight in the pocket, high ring iq when he wants to, and love that he can be orthodox and unorthodox in his way of fighting at the same time, and no I don't mean righty and southpaw even though he switches up and it works.My question is, is his success due to his non european way of fighting amidst fighters who have that straight up european style. I believe his style had benefitted him more than anything, giving him rhythm and looseness compared to most euro corner parts. Anyone agree?

          He hasn't done enough to deserve a title shot yet, really Andy Lee should get 1st crack if anyone should.

            I believe is unique style is created due to a variety of training. Correct me if Im wrong, but I believe Pirog first learned boxing in Eastern European boxing gyms, and then relocated to American gyms and developed a new style based on their training.

            both are effective styles, and he has learned to balance and switch between them during fights, which makes his style unpredictable and gives him the beneifts of both styles.

            Unfortunately, I think he also still has the negative aspects of both styles, which showed up in one of his more recent fights where he struggled a bit more than his opposition suggested he would.

            But, he certainly is interesting to watch.

              lee fight's slow and awkward he was one of my faves coming in but... he doesn't have the fire power or the coordination to do damage. I can see it going the distance after Pirog begins to frustrate him with movement but i think Lee's left will be corked all night trying to avoid the right which Pirog has a great right! Either BY UD or TKO PIROG takes it.

                So most of his success is attributed to this mesh of styles correct? That's what I believe as well. Didn't know that he came and trained in the states as well. I'll look it up online but do you know where he went to train?

                    LMFAO! @ turnip farmers. is that the russian equivalents of bus-drivers and parole officers that roy jones dominated for a decade?
