    He's a beast no doubt, encuppled with the fact he's no money draw.

    Most avoided fighter in boxing?

    Proska is fighting him next, so not everyone is ducking him.

    If he is impressive against Proksa which will be on HBO then he will become a bigger name and worth the risk.

    Nah he was avoided but not anymore. Pirog was gonna fight him and probably will next and with HBO showing him now more fighters will be interested in facing him

    He has put the fear of God into many. The winner of Sergio and Junior should fight him. Golovkin will win too!.

    Looking forward to ending this HBO/Sho drought & watching GGG this weekend.
    IF he looks good with the exposure on HBO's platform I see big things)

    ^Then again Pirog vanished from HBO once he beat Jacobs.

    I think Golovkin will start getting his big fights now and it is happening at the right time

    What about Pirog? Dmitri showed us a very high skillset against Jacobs and Jacobs was no pushover.

    Pirog is limited. He has power, but he is limited.

    Promoters and TV don't want anything to do with him (Atleast in the US). Boxing is a business not a sport.

    This hopefully won't happen with GGG or Proksa, wouldn't mind seeing Pirog vs the winner, but HBO might not be interested unless the fight is exciting. But Pirog vs Jacobs was exciting and Pirog showed skill and power in that fight and since then HBO hasn't shown any interest.

    GGG vs Proksa winniner, Sturm vs Geale winner or Pirog would be a good fights for Chavez jr vs Martines winner depending on the results there is a quite a few good match ups to be made.
