    Dirrell is easily the most unfairly maligned fighter on ESB. I think he is as talented as ward with more power...

    I think he looked very good vs abraham, he needs to have more confidence in his own abilities and run with it instead of being on his bike the whole fight spoiling like he did vs froch. He has everything he needs to be big yet he is failing, it must be the mental aspect thats lacking there is no other logical explenation.

    Despite everything I like Andre Dirrell. Very good boxer and better than Ward IMO. His performance against AA was beautiful and i think he beat him worse than Froch and Ward. :thumbsup

    Don't try stealing my crown! I'm obviously a huge dirrell fanboy as these astute posters have pointed out!

    He needs to get back in the ring pronto

    i believe the fight got pushed back to September due to a passing in the family.

    Dirrell will look very impressive in his come back fight and will be back in the ring with the top 10 fighters real soon.

    He'll never be a top fighter IMO. Lacks the mentality.

    For a guy with no heart and chin you have to be impressed that he took 16 of 22 rounds against the two biggest punchers in the division.

    he lost to froch and was about to get knocked out by abraham. he's a quitter, fraud and fake. a phony.

    True star :huh???
    What Dirrell who illegally held alot against Froch and didnt want to do much until it was too late and the same Dirrell who could only beat Abraham by DQ and hasnt fought since.

    I was a fan of Dirrell for a while (still am really). On the way up he was matched tough, and I thought he was going to be special, but he just let Froch bully him out of the fight

    In time, after Ward defeats Froch, Bute and all others, Dirrell will come out of the wings and shock the world by beating Ward, taking his belts, and ruling the division.
    Bet on it!
