Am I the only one that wants to see Martinez vs. Pirog (the dude that KO'd Jacobs)?

    I think this is a fair fight against a your strong big prospect that would really test mantequilla (butter...as a compliment!) I mean maravilla!

    I dont see anybody else testing him maybe Angulo but Angulo is to sloppy and gets hit way too much. IDK if I am going to pay to see him fight at MSG, I want to see that fight plain and simple big russian and argentine population in the city too Dibella step up!

    Pirog vs Golovkin vs Lemieux. Triple threat match. :lol:

    Pirog needs MW names to fight... Martinez would tell HBO to go fukk themselves. :yep

    Very dangerous fight. Martinez just fought PW 2X, Pavlik, and Cintron all in a row.

    I think he deserves a big fight now. Or at least a tune up type of fight. Pirog is a hell of a fight for anyone and i wouldnt be surprised if he beat Martinez. I would give Martinez the slight edge.

    :? Everyone on ESB wants this fight. People just aren't talking about it because it's not going to happen. Not anytime soon anyways.

    It's more like - HBO doesn't want to see it - so it's not going to happen.

    I believe Martinez would sign asap - if the money was right for the fight. Pirog is unknown to most - so they don't think it would sell - probably.

    Stop dreaming. Pirog doesn't come close to being a big enough name for Martinez yet. I'd absolutely love to see the fight, but Pirog has to face someone with a bigger name than Jacobs first.
    Also, remember that styles make fights, and these two might not even be compatible. The fight could turn out to be a stinker.

    I think it will be something like Martinez-Cintron.

    Except with more drama because of Pirogs better skillset and power. However Jacobs was able to outbox Pirog at times and i think Martinez being better than Jacobs he would edge out a very close win.

    maybe if pirog had done something to capitalize on his ko of jacobs in the interim...but he hasnt. i would loooove to see this fight but martinez is no spring chicken. he's gonna want big fights. pirog is a boxing fans fight but not one that will generate much income for maravilla.

    if pirog gets rolling then this fight has a good chance of happening.

    (i say martinez is no spring chicken and he's not...but pirog aint getting any younger either so he needs to step up.)

    He needs to get a fight with Sturm then he holds more belts and a Martinez fight will become a money fight.
