Was Dmitry Pirog better than GGG?

They have different advantages
Golovkin is clearly better at pressuring and being on the front foot. Better knockout power
Pirog is not an agressor but he has better upper body movement, better usage of shoulder roll and better defense. Tactically, Pirog is probably better, he's great at analysing and listening his breakdowns of fights and gameplans in his interviews is a joy, a lot of boxing wisdom there, it makes you wonder why he's not training other boxers with that approach. Golovkin on the other hand, was doing the same things over and over again.
That would be a good matchup for sure. Pirog is a better fighter on close distance and Golovkin is better at long range
Here's some defensive highlights of both fighters. Pirog defense is more effective, but Golovkin defense is more subtle and takes less stamina

Source or shut the **** up; if Anatoly Lomachenko had actually been the man guiding him along, he wouldn't have shown up as an anonymous figure when he finally brought his son Vasyl along, fool.Last edited by NChristo-; 09-30-2018, 12:48 AM.
