Yo! Pirog is putting hands on Jacobs! LOL. Never seen this guy fight, but he's putting some good pressure on, and landing a lot of hard, clean shots. Jacobs looks kind of dumbfounded.

hell yea he is. Jacobs probably assumed he got this won. Looks like he knows he's in for a fight and "russia with love" wont go down easy.

I know Jacobs had some out of the ring personal problems this week. Maybe that could be effecting him. Good win for The Ghost earlier, thought he could have been more aggressive in the last few rounds.

Solid right. He woke up like "I'm OK"
Those were horrible excuses as well.
Grandma dies so your entire camp is ruined?
That's non sense...

Also, that was the worst promo video I have seen in a while (Mosley vs Mora)

man Pirog is pretty damn sick. He fights nothing like typical russian fighters. I was impressed. lol at jacobs not even really realizing what happened after the count of 9.

Marquez looked good, I think diaz was mostly just trying to survive.

The Ghost lacks that killer instinct, he should and could have ended casamayor early. Him getting knock down in teh last round hopefully taught him a lesson. Never leave a guy in the fight if you have the chances to take him out.

rocky juarez fought his typical fight - don't do shit until the last round or two. friday night fights is where he belongs.

^^on paper the card was awesome and definitely worthy of ppv. Unfortunately the fights didn't turn out too great. With exception of Priog/Jacobs, the first two fights were stinkers, and even though marquez/diaz was a good fight it was nothing like the first fight mainly because diaz tried to be a boxer.

also one of the most interesting events occurred with the Bika fight, which wasn't supposed to be televised. The winner of that fight gets to be Bute's mandatory at 168 pounds, and Bika done fucked up! He had that guy down, then boom nails him when he's down knocking him cold for the DQ loss. poor bika just cant get any luck
