    as I said, your opinion is worth **** because you've only seen one fight of his.

    Overt use of defence? Look, if you just want to be blind to it then not much more I can say to convince you. Watch the fight again and see if you can see what I saw. The 'turn your back' running and 'leap in to hug' so **** all punches were thrown in the 'fight'.

    Not sure why you keep asking me what my profession is as if it means anything. I didn't choose to be a boxer. If you really want to know I am a European Fixed Income Trader and I have balls or I won't be any good at my job. If I choose to be a boxer tho believe me I'll mix it up and give it my all rather than being a chicken ****.

    what was his medical complaint?

    Headaches right?

    He should retire before it gets worse

    Yeah and your opinion is worth **** when you can't even spot a coward in one fight.

    No, i'm on your side now. I wanted to watch some roberto duran and started with his rematch with leonard. Never watching that glass hearted fraud again. One fight is enough.

    Eh...I'm pretty sure that being a European Fixed Income Trader =/= Professional Prize Fighter.

    In terms of bravery that is...

    Andre Dirrell's ONLY skill is speed.

    He is like RJJ without the talent. 18 months is too long for a man who's only gifts are his speed. He'll win a belt (maybe) but will always be a nearly man when he hit's 30+ and those reflexes go lol.....it's open season on his limited half hearted ass!

    How do you think the layoff will affect him?

    I think he needs to take a tune up or 2. He's still relatively young in his career and long layoffs like the one he took will affect him more than a guy like Mayweather

    Direll really messed up, he is physically more gifted than ward but is a total mess mentaly while ward is extremely mature. His fight vs abraham I was so impressed with how skilled he looked yet he messed it up after that, he can come back but I doubt his heart and mental strength to be honest.
