    The Soviet school of Slickness which also incorporated some of the best aspects of the American school of slickness vs the American school of slickness.

    Boo Boo was a very skillful operator when he was campaigning down at 154 and I actually enjoyed watching him fight, but the American school of slickness is a fear based school of slickness not a warrior/artistic Slickness like most notably British Slickness, Cossack Slickness, and Gypsy Slickness are, and sadly Boo Boo has, like so many of his fellow slickster countrymen, allowed that fear of getting hit to make him unwatchable most of the time.

    Running, octopus grabbing and doing everything in your power, often employing tactics which are not permitted within the rules, to avoid getting hit is not great defence or true slickness.

    Check out this young Eurasian brother exponent of the Soviet School of Slickness/Qazaq Slickeness who style is obviously also influenced by one of the Slick GOATs Loma

    Pirog couldn't take out Ishida, nobody but GGG could and in spectacular fashion. I guess its funner watching Pirog struggle with these types.

    Golovkin was a bigger puncher than Pirog, that's not breaking news. Doesn't necessarily determine the outcome of a H2H encounter between the two. Pirog-Golovkin wouldn't have been the first or last time a puncher struggled to deal with great head/upper body movement and footwork.

    Pirog hardly struggled with Ishida. Schooled his ass.

    Schooled his ass and couldnt hurt him. The only worthy apponent according to you GGG haters standards was Daniel Jacobs. This incredible super legend Pirog has only one worthy win, and that was before Jacobs was diagnosed with cancer and his grandmother just died. You guys are hypocrites.

    Golovkin had his career and underwhelmed by contrast with what many supposed him capable of. Pirog didn't get the chance, his career was curtailed by debilitating injury, and that's lamentable.

    You seem confused. I didn't cite the Jacobs triangle, and it would've been dumb of me to do so while pointing out the flaw in your lazy Ishida triangle. Triangles and common opponents are fair game as a kind of supplementary reference to analysis of a style/attributes matchup, but they're hardly an infallible means of predicting H2H encounters.

    Great eye finding him. I'm keeping a close eye on him. I'm also hoping the Ukrainian Silver Medalist Khyzhniak turns pro.

    Pirig was a master technician with very good power, it's not even a question to me.

    He was down on the scorecards when he stopped Jacobs. He can be out boxed. That being said, Pirog wins this matchup.
