Comments Thread For: Dmitry Pirog's Return Delayed Until The End of Summer

As long as Pirog comes back... taking forever for him to come back

The back takes time to heal.

I don't know. I DO know that he wants to fight GG and he's well qualified regardless of wins and losses.

Would be a brawl till it ends no doubt, I'd like to see it. Do think Stevens gets caught first and stopped though, at least right now.

Well I don't know what he injured the second time, but it's been almost a year since he was injured initially.
I just hope he comes back ready

This guy is a very good technician, very good reflexes, composure, dedicated body puncher, heavy hands, amateur pedigree...just bad luck. If he were healthy I'd pick him to beat everyone Golovkin has beat. I wouldn't pick him to do it as well but I'd still pick him. Shame.

Anyone know when and if this guy is coming back? He hasn't fought since May 2012. Maybe he can be GGG's next big name opponent...

This is the last I've hear of him:

He said that he would return in August, but I haven't heard anything since...

He was supposed to be back in Spring, but he injured himself again.
He was supposed to fight Golovkin in August last year, but the back injury. Hopefully he'll have at least 1 fight this year and get back into the title picture.
