If Pirog didn't get injured

[Citizen Koba]

He would've beaten them all and had a long reign like Hopkins.

Brilliant fighter... they didn't call him The Grandmaster for nothing.

The Grandmaster monniker was a reference to his Chess playing... you musta heard the story about how he wondered into a sports center looking for chess opponents and instead discovered boxing? Not sure of the absolute truth of it but it makes a great story either way.

But yeah for sure an extremely talented, very cerebral fighter fighter, but it's worth remembering that whilst he never lost or even really came close he also didn't really face many quality opponents. Absolute shame that we didn't get to see how far his talents and idiosyncratic style could have taken him.

Very talented fighter for sure but impossible to say what he would’ve done

I think it’s probably a decent assumption to think he would’ve been in the mix at the top anyway

Could he have beaten a prime GGG? Who knows. Some people forget how good GGG was in his physical prime. Canelo waited for him to show signs of decline for a reason, and still had to get a robbery to get a draw.

[Zaryu]

I think GGG beats Pirog.

I think he was very good but I think prime against prime both Canelo and GGG were better than him. He was losing to Jacobs before he knocked him out and he had done nothing special before he KOed Jacobs that i know of.
