Dirrel would out box him silly most of the fight from outside but at some point fight might turn out to be like you said. That would be horrendeous to watch.
Bika is one of the roughest, most awkward boxers I've seen. I'm not sure if Dirrell would cope with Bika's tactics.
I don't think Dirrell has the will to deal with Bika. Bika breaks Dirrell down gradually during the fight and KO Dirrell at the end.
Dirrell is underrated and gets alot of crap on this forum, but I guess Dirrell only has himself to blame for that. Dirrell wins in a lackluster boring performance where Bika has his moments. Bika is a very hard guy to look good against, ask Ward and Calzaghe.
direll is inactive for no conceivable reason. bika is inactive because people dont want to fight him unless they have to. bika is a wrecking ball, I dont know if direll would be able to handle him. if he soundly outboxed bika, i would go from questioning him as a fighter, to totally believing in him.
I love Bika and think it's a shame that he never got to pick up one the paper belts held by the likes of stieglitz/magee/abraham who are nowhere near as good at SMW but Dirrell would win wide like Bute did. Dirrell might lose a round.
He is inactive because he has almost no fan base. I'll watch almost any fighter but I have zero desire to sit through another one of his fights.
there are many fighters with little to no fan base who fight at a much more regular pace than direll. it cant strictly be that he has almost no fanbase.
