Is Canelo living proof that Pirog would have made quick work of GGG?

[kafkod]

jacobs could have had cancer already just didnt know it.

PLUS that KO was just a dumb ass move by jacobs he was laying chilling in the cut that made him look like he was OUT but in face he was just taking it in he was ready to get up but ref stopped it on like 6 cause of the style jacobs decided to handle the KD.

Lying face down on the canvas "chilling" during a fight is a bad move. There is always a chance the ref will think you got KTFO and wave it off.

Jacbobs is a true middleweight....lean....you guys are trying to make lil g seem like he fought some huge guy. You guys need to cut the **** cuz I see right through you phonies.

It’s embarrassing that you have to try and see an ulterior motive in every comment. I don’t give a **** about Golovkin. Grow a pair.

Are you serious? Pirog and Golovkin were scheduled to fight but Pirog suffered his career altering back injury during training for said fight, and the bout was cancelled. Canelo, on the other hand, is a great 12 round marathon runner as the world recently witnessed.

That was a quick high to low excitement drop from the fights signed to cancelled

[turnedup]

CANELO would of fought Pirog , while Golovkin would of found a way to duck, that's his MO.

My man that food you had for lunch must have you salty as fk...like they weren't scheduled to fight when Pirog was healthy before he injured himself...fk off hater.

Pirog could not KO Ishida

Why is it always GGG getting thrashed by these ghosts of the past? He has had his ass kicked in fantasy fights with retired boxers on this forum far more than any other boxer. Great boxers from the past be it Pirog, Hopkins, Hagler, Monzon or SRR are brought in on the time machine for the express purpose of giving GGG the beating so many haters on here think he deserves. He can't possibly win these fantasy fights. He has never lost a real fight or avoided a fight with any top middleweight. I think he would have defeated Pirog at any time. Pirog was good but not as good as GGG. GGG is the one who will be remembered as a great champion when only boxing historians will remember Pirog. It's too bad that Pirog was injured and forced to retire but stuff happens. Don't go turning Pirog into some unbeatable monster that he never was. He was even on points with Jacobs when he landed the bombs that KOed Jacobs. A 35 year old GGG beat a much bigger, stronger and all around better version of Jacobs than Pirog did.

Pirog could not KO Ishida

GGG could not KO Jacobs

[stealthradon]

[Pirog] was even on points with Jacobs when he landed the bombs that KOed Jacobs.

Actually Jacobs was ahead on all scorecards. 39-37

[satiev1]

I'll use the same logic. Pirgo went 12 with a bum names ishida who ggg sparked in 3 rds.

It's called excuses

im not so sure theres an excuse for either side....(maybe im misunderstanding your comment)

fact; pirog ended dj

fact; it wasnt an easy fight for either guy (although dj was doing slightly better)

fact; not much can be said about a one punch fight ender. a perfect punch is almost impossible to duplicate. pirog landed a perfect punch.

my pov; in a rematch, dj wouldnt have been so careless. he would have either pressed the issue a little harder while not abandoning all defense or boxed a little more and seek out a ud.

whichever way dj went, imho, he would have done a good enough job and won.
