Pirog is a caveman.

He would club our best over the head and take them back to his cave for some fun under his mammoth skin blanket.

YEP! :idea:

Pirog would have too much skill for macklin,Macklin is a decent boxer with good power but pirog is very slick,has great upper body movements,feints alot and comes in from strange angles plus can punch!Pirog all day for me.I also thought he'd beat jacobs aswell after seeing fights of his on youtube!He fights the complete opposite of your standard eastern european fighter.Shoulder rolls the lot.Nice to watch as a true fan of the sweet science.

Barker is top of the list for me too don't think people know the class he mixed with in the amateurs the likes of Tim Bradley , Yuri Ruminov( sorry for my spelling) and Beurto, different class, Macklin is good but Ko'd two old men! I also think Barkers power is under estimated, and my pick to be in the world mix very soon

Macklin was on fire at the start of this year but what with the Barker fight cancelled and a few uninspiring performances things are a bit lacklustre at the moment. Macklin needs to make something happen for himself now so absolutely he should go after Pirog. No ones seems to want to know about Pirog at the moment so for relatively small money you get him and his title to cross the atlantic. Go on FW make it happen, you have a 2 or 3 fight contract with Macklin, the fight will make you money and if Macklin is not up to the task you have another payday against Barker then say adios.
