Dmitry Pirog
Omar Andres Narvaez
Simphiwe Nongqayi
Denis Boytsov

Narvaez is awesome-great skills-but opposition is lacking-needs a defining fight before its too late
Pirog had a good win over Jantuah
Nongqayi beat both Jorge Arce & his brother
Boytsov looks the goods

Thanks for the info mate. Anyone else got any comments about these guys? Im particularly interested in Pirog. The guys victory over Jantuah looks good on paper but anyone seen him fight?

omar andres narvaez has awesome skills but he never "challenged" himself into fighting better opposition or didn't even want to attempt to unify his title or win higher weight titles.

Nongqayi is a very, very good boxer puncher from south africa. it's too bad he's already like 35 years old. he started his career late due to having had like 300 plus amateur fights. anyways, he tore up jorge arce and his kid brother francisco arce with beautiful handspeed and counterpunching. i saw both fights and neither were close.

Thanks mate. Surely a win over Arce has to put Nongqayi in title contention.

actually nongqayi is a world champion already. he beat arce about two months ago for the title. and i understand that there is going to be a rematch between those two early next year. this is crazy cause arce got beaten easily in their first fight and nongqayi will beat him again.

He's solid
Defeated respectable Toygonbayev before Kantuah
Schooled veteran Tatevosyan in only his 5th fight
Boys got talent:thumb:

Nongqayi's got skills
He'll be tough for anyone at 115

eagle,

i think he would give each of those three fighters very tough fights because of his supreme counterpunching skills and he seems to have a solid chin. for all i know, i wouldn't be surprised if he beat all three because he matches up well with all of them.

Thanks for the answers. Great to hear about a few different names on here for a change. All seem to be decent fighters and guys to keep an eye on.
