Matt Korobov vs Jose Uzcategui: HBO June 28

Yeah, and Pongsaklek Wonjongkam, while in most people's top 5-10 p4p, took on debutant fighters to stay busy. So?

Uzcategui is a novice, three years in the game and has barely started to step up but has some qualities that some insiders like, enough to project that he might be able to crunch his way up the ladder and be a h2h force. (though still early to know for sure)

Directly before his stay-busy match blowing out the 0-1 guy, he took on Porky Medina - who stands as the best W on not only Uzcategui's resume but those of Jonathan Gonzalez, Badou Jack, and even Gilberto Ramirez Sanchez (being that Gutierrez and Lorenzo, while bigger names than Porky, were so used-up when they fought GRS)

 

If Geale wanted the Macklin fight he'd be fighting him and not trying to get a shot against GGG

 

How would you compare and contrast Pirog and Korobov??

Personally, I think both are fluid boxers with good handpseed.

Korobov, in my opinion, has the better offensive arsenal overall and more punching power.

Pirog, on the other hand, is the better defensive fighter of the two.

Thoughts?
