Dmitry Pirog v. Kelly Pavlik

[Vladimir5555]

Who takes it?

[gilgamesh]

Fairly pointless to put Pirog in fantasy matchups he never stuck around long enough to know how good he is or isn't.

Uhhh I want to say Pavlik, but that's purely a gut thing. Seeing as how Gilgamesh said, Pirog wasn't really around against top guys enough to know.

He looked good against Jacobs, but who knows really.

Jury's still out on Jacobs too.

He's a good fighter I think, but ultimately yeah we don't know his upper limit. I don't know if his health was affecting him at the time of Pirog, I don't exactly remember the time span of his cancer diagnosis.

Pirog the slickest boxer, but Pavlik just hit too hard for him.

By the way, both are among my favourite boxers.

[Onetimeonly]

Pirog might have hit harder than pavlik.

[DrDuke]

Yeah, Pirog is kinda mysterious. He has demonstrated some phenomenal stuff, but he did that not so many times, not against the very best guys. And Pavlik was a really tough fella. However, he was outboxed by slicker competitors. So I probably a bit more confident in Pirog.
