    What's up with him?

    He hasn't fought since may 2012! I thought he was an interesting up and coming contender but he disappeared!

    But anyway, apparently he injured his back while training to fight Golovkin, and then just went back to chess ala Lennox Lewis

    :lol:

    Not only did he quit, but you could even argue he was ahead when he quit, if you amalgamated the scorecards of say... 100,000 people.

    Well, IIRC he was ahead on the official scorecards when he "quit".

    Wow, Goldielocks judging knows no bounds.

    Unless I'm remembering badly, Pirog basically hunted him and down and beat him up in every round, and obviously ended up stopping him. I remember it being 1 sided.

    Why does Pirog has to try to fight like a slick afro-american? He looks robotic doing so.
