Jirov - Haye

[Stinky gloves]

Since Jirov came back to Cruiser this fight may happen soon.

[El Bombasto]

Haye KO7

[Sai]

Jirov is fucking done. Haye is young and hungry and combs him out within 5 no question.

Its awkward for Audley Harrison,

Haye is a friend and sparring partner to Haye..

Audley is trained by Jirovs trainer Thell Torrence and sparrs regularly with the russian in camp..

[emanuel_augustus]

You have to think Haye will blow him out in short order, round 2 or 3.

The account I read said that even Kenny Craven had Jirov out on his fight. He was also dropped recently by journeyman Luke Munsen.

I like Jirov, but you have to wonder if he is completely shot, even at Cruiserweight.

How does Jirov fare against Harrison?

(and Jirov is a Kazakh, not Russian)

[Bigcat]

Jirov would make Audley work, the only thing Audley would succeed at is landing the jab only because of his dimensions.. Too much of a naturally large man.. Skill for skill Jirov demolishes him.. ( The Kazakh..) LOL

Is Jirov really so shot?

Jirov was not in trouble in that fight with Craven at all but I heard he dominated it.

Did you see it? I'm just referring to a report I read from Ron Lipton, although admittedly he was in Craven's corner. Haven't seen the fight.

Here's the quote from Lipton:

"Once the fight started as the films will show, there was a deliberate head butt by Vassily, low blows, and vicious and several rabbit punches with nothing being done by the referee. The intentional headbutt cracked Ken's nose and the blood was pouring as well as his eye swelling. Then the rabbit punches and finally a liver shot.

Ken and I worked on his uppercut all afternoon, delivering it my way and he hit Jirov such a shot that he had him out on his feet with the crowd going wild."

Personally, I hope Jirov has something left at 200. He's been one of my favorite fighters to watch, namely because of his committment to body punching and relentless forward style.

Haye - bloody murder 1.

[chewy 22]

Haye's speed would be too much at this stage for Jirov, who usually loses in big fights

[macp]

Ding KO 2

[Jinx]

if Jirov takes Haye into deep waters he will drown that ass...i like Jirov's experience and skills in this one over Haye's speed and power...Jirov has seen bigger power than Haye...

Em how exactly ?..............Haye has stated(with the full intent to carry it out) that he is only going to have one more fight at Cruiser(because he struggles so badly with the weight) and move up . That fight is against Mormeck .

Now maybe , just maybe Haye would stay one fight longer if Maccarinelli and Cunningham fight and Haye has the chance to fight the winner but that's it .

Jirov unfortunately is shot to pieces , so if they were to fight somehow(which they won't) Haye would win by KO .

Mormeck somehow beat Haye, Haye without title.
Jirov beat one of the title holders, possibly Hill for regular WBA.
Jirov - Haye open!

I doubt that anyone from Cunningham, Macarelli would risk agianst
Haye if he don't hold a title.

Jirov is Russian by nationality but he was born in Khazakhstan (former Soviet Republic, where about 45-50% of the population is russian by origin). Native kazakhs look more asian than european.

[Danny Ocean]

haye is dead at cruiser anyway after he beats mormeck hes done

[dlogvine]

Currently Jirov is continuously training with Thell and he is back in shape. I didnt see any signs of him being 'shot to pieces'. He is in a great shape, got his mean strick back and is ready to fight anybody. His camp is working to arrange the title fight with Virgil Hill now.

The fight will be televised soon and I'll post information about the time and channel on jirov's web site: [Only registered and activated users can see links]
Also we are going to put the video of the fight on the site as well.
As for the comments - losers are always looking for excuses. From what I know Craven stopped the fight because he was unable to hold Jirov's bodyshots - he admitted after the fight that they were the hardest ones he faced in his boxing career.
