It's Official: Sergio Martinez is ducking Pirog

he deserves an easy fight if he wants one. he just needs to stop claiming\pretending, aswell as his fans, that he deserves the pound for pound number one beating these type of euro level guys (Dzinziruk, Barker)

 

Oh pirog is not HBO worthy but Barker is?

 

Shane is bigger name than Berto? what's the comparison between pirog and barker?

Here's a question for you? Why did floyd chose not to unify with Margo/Cotto/Pwill instead of a fake retirement?

 

:rofl

 

Martinez was willing to fight Sturm but HBO did not agree to Germany and Sturm claims he can´t come to the US since his tv deal forces him to fight in Germany for his next five fights. Pirog might be a different story though seems to me that guy gets totally ignored in the US since he spanked Jacobs

 

i don't think he's a ******* or a pac fan. he's more of a Martinez/Mayweather hater w/c doesn't necessarily mean he nuthugs pac.

 

HBO dont want to risk Pirog getting another win where he was supposed to loss. they dont want a repeat of what Pirog did the last time he was on HBO. Martinez on his part dont want the fight either.

 

You 'had to'? Get a grip dude

 

The sheer idiocy of this single post only tells the story of the general boxing fan, it's not a critic of you.

HBO never wanted Pirog, he just happened to be an opponent who upset the Jacobs plan, but I ask you, DID THEY EVER CALL DMITRY BACK? No. Over a year and that HORRIBLE performance of his recently (did you watch it BTW?), they never will.

I like Dmitry Pirog, and I would've loved a double header to build him up, but HBO makes or breaks fights. They don't want Pirog. They didn't even want Klitschko-Chambers, the world HW champion vs. a top American contender. It's up to him and it's unlikely they'll accept Martinez-Geale either (though Daniel looks to fight Mundine) becuase it'd need more money.

Sergio Martinez wants ANY LMW & MW acceptable by HBO, going down to 154 if necessary, but here are his options:

Cotto wants no part of him, likely to face Margo
Pacquiao despite being a LMW champ, says he's too small, fights a LW next
Angulo turned career high payday down, also his career is over
Dzinziruk just got beaten
Williams just got knocked out, still got Martinez's Summer date
Alvarez is tied up
Golvokin is tied up with the WBA mess
Hassan N'Dam too
Sturm apparently is in the same shoes plus fights Mackling and doesn't wanna take a risk
Pirog is unwanted by HBO and barely beat a C-level fighter
Kirkland got knocked out
Ishida is unwanted by HBO
Lemieux go knocked out
Rubio is being saved for Top Rank as Chavez' mandatory excuse not to face Martinez
Chavez took Martinez belt, but doesn't want him
Winky is nowhere to be found
Guerrero, Quillin and other youngsters are being built up
All the top SMWs are tied either to tourney or to some other fight

So who should World MW Champion Sergio Martinez fight when they take his titles, take his network date, turn down half of his opponent and the other half think he's too good? And then you come here ignoratly telling Martinez who just beat Cintron (got jobbed), Williams (got jobbed), Pavlik of 178lbs, Williams of P4P top3 and Dzinziruk (unbeaten top3 LMW) is cherry picking and ducking other fighters? Does that make sense in your opinion?

Yes, HBO should step up and put down the money for Pirog, I wish. But they won't. They first turn down Zbik for Martinez who gets stripped because of that and then accept Zbik for Chavez. That's the way they roll homie. Tell me if it's Martinez fault!

 

WAAARR Sexy Sergio!!!!!

 

That nobody was quite possibly the best LMW on the planet, an undefeated champion. Before that a top3 P4P-er. Before that the World MW Champion undefeated at the weight. Before that Williams the 1st time. Before that a top3 LMW. What a cherry picker! Ban him from boxing! Long live Chavez Jr and Dmitiry Pirog, more deserving to hold the belts! atsch

Also, I'm just curious, can you give me a link where Dmitry Pirog of Russia makes an offer to Martinez covering all the necessary expenses to make this fight? Same link please with Sturm of Germany or Geale of Australia. Once they make the offer I guarantee Martinez will sign. He's an Arentiean after all who traveled to Spain, to the UK, to the US, so your claim of him not willing to travel despite all the great offers being thown at him is... well I let you to label your opinion.

 

Hi Bugees :hi:
