    Bob, was trying to pawn martinez off to the, as he called them,
    "Killer Russians" Pirog and golovkin, so that he wouldn't have to feed
    JR to sergio. Now that Jr called out martinez, Cotto, or Margo after
    the win last night, Bob will HAVE to either go thru with the martinez
    fight or have JR fight one of those "killer russians" and Pirog deserves the
    shot more than anyone at 160. My guess is that Lee might get the call
    1st or a margo fight would materialize. The right opponent outside of
    Sergio would be the russian at 160.

    Golovkin's from Kazakhstan lol. Anyway, I really just want Pirog to get a fight against any decent MW, even Barker is fine.

    Really dude? These ESB posters on here would know that country
    if it weren't on Borat, plus its a former USSR country, so it's russia.
    I don't want to see pirog fight barker because its an easy win. It's
    about time somebody steps up and forces a named guy at 160 to
    fight pirog, even if it's Lee.

    It may be an easy win (although let's not underestimate Barker, we've already done that before :D), but it would get him more attention, especially if he was to win against him more impressively than Martinez.

    He's an ethnic Russian and an Orthodox Christian. His name "Golovkin" is a Russian surname.

    Fair enough, although that still doesn't necessarily make him Russian.

    lol No. He may have a Russian parent but he's part Kazakh too. The fact that he looks asian should be a hint.

    Why, because he got an undeserved shot at Sergio?
    Pirog is the better and more proven fighter.

    I like Pirog, but the question isn't if Pirog is better, it is if Barker is better than Chavez jr.

    I always thought Golovkin was a mix but he sure looks like many primarily ethnic Kazakh's. Him and Pirog are not getting anyone of note lining up to fight them. Why would they when a softer touch with a network contract(Lee) is waiting around.
